It's NOT fall around here though. Can you believe it was 81 degrees yesterday? I put away all my summer clothes and have yet to find a pair of jeans that fit...I'm going to be clothed in the unseasonably green leaves soon. Hey! That might work! I can be Eve for Halloween! Despite the Biblical basis, I don't think it'll be appreciated at the church Trunk or Treat this evening, do you?
I went to get my new Hoover Floormate today because I was feeling uncharacteristically industrious and had a legitimate reason to NOT sweep the floors: the Floormate smells like buttcrack. Seriously. I've had it approximately two weeks and it's been used 3 times. Despite the manual saying it's unnecessary, I have emptied it between cleanings. The canister that the dirty water/sweeper crap goes into smells so bad that I took the canister outside on the back porch. I really was going to vacuum the floor today, but not if it'll make my house smell like nasty trash. I'm a little peeved...that damn thing was expensive. Hopefully, I can get a hold of the company tomorrow and figure out how to de-stink it.
My husband is NOT coming home for the holidays. He's making a sacrifice and heading to Dubai instead to crash with a friend so we still get his R&R bonus, but don't have to pay for the airfare home. Wait a minute...I'm home by myself with a preschooler clinging to my leg and a baby hanging from my breast and he's staying with a friend in another city, going sight seeing and such with no kids... Scratch the "sacrifice" comment, that sounds like a freakin' vacation. Holy Mother, I've been had...
Until then,
AC 'n' Rory's Mom
