Vacuum Cleaner

This morning the flea control person came and kicked me out of the apartment for a few hours because he needed to spray the carpet to kill the fleas. He also recommended that we vacuum at least twice a week for the next 2 months to make sure all the existing fleas and flea eggs are picked up.

Since our old vacuum cleaner exploded last month, it was time to buy a new one. I went to Best Buy and picked up this cutie:


Eureka 431A Optima Lightweight Upright Vacuum



















I just got home and looked online, apparently, this vacuum cleaner has pretty good reviews for something this size and price. Did you know that a regular size vacuum cleaner has 12amps but weighs at least twice the weight of the one i bought. Apparently 12 AMPs is the standard, b/c it's on the description of every vac cleaner (except for the high end ones). This vacuum cleaner is LIME GREEN and only weighs 11 LBS! I can't wait to use it!
