Dyson
Ok, so first off, I have to say that I have the absolute best husband in the whole world, and not just because he bought me a Dyson! Let me tell you folks who don’t know about Dyson (and those who do can just sit and say “oh yeah…”) they are the best vacuums in the world. The ads are so true. Listen to me; I’ve only vacuumed 1.5 rooms and I’m already an addict.
I spent about a half hour today reading the manual. I never do that but this thing has more gidgets and gazmos than your typical vacuum. I learned all the switches and attachment stuff and then gave it a whirl. First thing I noticed was how light it was! I had an upright vacuum before, but the Dyson moves so smoothly and easily over the carpet and I could tell in the first minute that this was no ordinary vacuum. Let’s just say that I thought the carpet was clean. I vacuumed and 1.5 rooms later, the Dyson was 1/2 full of dirt, hair and dust…yuck!!!! Oh my gosh, that was all in my clean carpet! Bleh!
So, I’m convinced only after 1.5 rooms. Can’t wait to try the kitchen, stairs and upstairs. Man, this is great.
Check out Dyson’s webpage to see the model Paul got me and the other vacuums they offer. I love it.

I guess everyone is overlooking the fact that Paul bought his wife a vacuum for their anniversary…most guys would be slapped for that…whats next Paul a mop for her birthday? a new dishwasher for x-mas? j/king…

shhhhhhh! don’t let it get out! Actually I was sweating that, but I knew it was something emily really wanted for a while now and I happened to have the money for it now. Sean gave me some jabs about it when I bought it 🙂

Actually, it was a great gift. YOu can get away w/spending a lot of $$ on anniversaries, we usually set limits on bdays and xmas so we don’t go overboard. Plus, it’s somethign we had talked about getting, but I always said no b/c of the price. So, I was overjoyed to get it!! We’re not traditional when it comes to gifts anyhow 🙂

I knew you would like it! 🙂 Too bad we don’t really have any carpet to vacuum anymore! I’ll just come over and drool at yours!
