The part of Canada that doesn't get enuf Snow :(
So glad she got her present early!!! I still watch them in amazement.

Even though people are OCD about housecleaning virtually all are amazed at how much crap the Roombas pick up!!!! (and they aren't even "real" vacuums".) I find it hard to envision how to "survive" without my iRobot army!!! Main thing is to keep them well cleaned, which takes some time, but so worth it. If you ever have any issues PM me. I've been a Roomba "extreme user environment" "expert" for a decade.

How are the Bubs doing with it??

Hugs, Alice

a little aprehensive fear at first but they just lay there now. Gatlin decided to push a button on it last night and it chased him around there was some REAL FEAR for a bit but now its a game to run away from it and follow it around :lol:

hiya Alice mom :)

Howdy Sonny. Jen said she had a drizzly morning. Full sun here all day. One of the extremely young guys at UPS store, yesterday afternoon.......... They always carry out my packages and mail, which usually needs to be in a clear big bag, as I don't get there but every week to ten days or so at most) anyway I usually say to them, and they always offer to carry stuff to my car, OK, I know you'd like to be outside in this amazing weather, expressed his concern over climate change and our past few years of weather. It was 80F, mid day early Dec. So cool to discuss this with "youngster." (He's a a registered Independent, US citizen, 1st generation, immigrant parents, and isn't a major Dem, as I am, or GOP, like so many Texans). (Owner is from India, as are half the employees. Rest majority are from Pakastan descent, and an occasional American Mutt.) We agreed we would enjoy the "new" winters as long as we are here.

Send me a list of your stations so I can recommend some programs.

Hugs, Alice mom

They can be "toys." Have you seen my picture of Heeler puppy poop on a Scooba? Or, really tiny Lily Heeler chewing a goodie on top of Scooba? Most of mine have considered it as part of "that's just what we have to put up with." On several occasions Roomba or Dirtdog would get tangled in Cissy Briard's long tail hair. I would hear a loud "thump, thump, thump" and it would be Cissy walking around with a 'bot firmly attached to her tail. She never freaked. I was always more concerned about the 'bot than her.:facepalm:

Hugs, Alice

DH just got home. He "done good" at Central Market..... (All Chef prepared) Crab Cakes to heat up, Mushroom Fontina Farro Mac n Cheese (Mostly cheese and mushrooms), wilted spinach (lots of garlic), Asian Cole Slaw, and Orecchieta Pasta Salad with Walnuts and Feta (served cold). He had half a sandwich with smoked turkey on the way home..... It smells wonderful. I'll have the other half tomorrow.

He's having a Tito Vodka Bloody Mary and I just finish cleaning kitchen, microwaves, oven.

Okay.... DH does do some carbs..... two pastas in one meal !!!???? :ohmy:.... that's rare!!!! But small servings.

I've been working behind the media center. Amazing amount of dust. I just vacuumed everything a month ago. Time to pull all vent filters off, covers/filters off and washed, and back together. Should take only a day or two.

Tonight is "turn around" so he'll be leaving early a.m...... Early, rush hour trip to DFW airport. He handed me a list of chores for tomorrow but I'll probably come home and sleep a few hours before, as I probably won't get to sleep before 0300 unless I load up on benadryl.... not that that knocks me out fast enough.

I still only have cold tap water in kitchen and heating wash water on stove; rinsing in bleach water. My hands smell so like chlorine. I don't wear gloves; after all it's not dust:D

Hope all are well.

Hugs and love, Feisty Alice
