So What Wednesday

Life After I Dew


So what if we have two vacuum cleaners and neither of them work right now. 

We bought a brand new vacuum cleaner about a month after we moved into our new house.  We figured new house, new vacuum.  Plus the new house has a lot of carpet and our old vacuum was just not efficient enough.

So we bought this.

And I actually really like it.  I love that the canister comes off and that I can easily carry it up the stairs. 

What I don't love is that it stopped working.  The canister and hose still work so my husband just think it's a belt but really?  I've only been using it for a month.  And I've already broken or slipped a belt?

I do vacuum a lot.  At least every other day in some rooms.  The boy rolls all over the floor now and the girl likes to lay on the floor to watch TV so I like to keep it clean.

The other vacuum we have (the older one) doesn't work either.  I think that's because it needs a new filter,  The vacuum just stops working when the filter is done.  It's dumb but I will say that we have owned that vacuum a long time and haven't changed the filter once.

So I'm vacuum-less for now.  But on a positive note, at least I have a need for a vacuum.  At least I have carpet and a house and all that good stuff. 

What kind of vacuum do you have?  Is there one brand that you swear by?

  1. We have a Dyson, but I'm going to be honest and tell you that I rarely use it! We have a house keeper come every other week, and my hubby does the vacuuming in the interim. We keep a dustbuster fully charged in our kitchen for quick vacuum jobs (mostly due to the kids).

    But my hubby loves the Dyson and swears by it.

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,

I'm Not Gonna Lie

Anyone who knows me know that I LOVE Christmas.  I love the decorations.  I love to decorate my own house and see all of the other cool decorations other people have.  There is a house down the street from us that always has more lights and decorations than I have ever seen in one yard.  It's a bit much but it's an attention grabber. I love the Christmas tree.  I love to get the tree out each year (yes we have a fake because I can't stand the needles) and I love to decorate it.  Growing up, our family would decorate the tree together with all kinds of ornaments that we had collected over the years.  I like to do themes for my trees.  Last year I did pink and silver in honor of the newest member of our family.  I'm really hoping to instill the tradition of decorating the tree with my kids. I love finding the perfect gifts for people and I love to watch their reactions when they open those gifts.  I generally wait until I have purchased ALL of my gifts, I sort them

No More Bumpdates!!
