really boring christmas list, part 1




so...you know you are getting older and less tolerant of allergens and pollutants when this is what you put on your christmas list first. the itchy ear feeling and stuffy nose plus having cats that shed way too much is really one of the reasons, but i think these are cool. so. what?

anyway, have one of these or something like these (air filter and roomba-robot vacuums)? i want some feedback, before i decide which one will be best. oh, and red is not a must. it was just pretty.

you're OLD.

just kidding. my christmas wish of a kitchenaid mixer isn't that much better than an air filter.

i want one of those too, but i don't know if i'd use it all the time. i don't mix alot. i flip, stir, and chop more than anything else. i think i just want one cuz they're so pretty.

I want a food processor-cause it will chop and mix... or does the mixer do that too? anyway yeah. that robo thing looks cool- does it really work?

i don't know yet. my in-laws got one, but they haven't used it yet. they've had it for more than a month. i need to "con" them into getting me one, because it will just be easier to get all the kitty hair underneath the couch where it likes to hide. i have to move everything when i vacuum unfortunately.

your cat's will looove it.... or be totally afraid of it.

Sarah BTW said...

probably totally afraid of it. cats hate vacuums, and i love using vacuums around them.

amanda said...

some cats don't mind vacuums, but mine do hate them. i have all wood flooring in my house, so it's reallly loud when i vacuum. the swiffer and/or a broom don't do squat for me, so i have to resort to the beast.

the roombas are supposed to be ultra-quiet though for a vacuum. that is why i want one.

I wish dysons were around when I got married. That way I could have added to my registery list. I want one soooo bad ('m old too).

amanda said...

man, i want a dyson too. the pink one even. one of these days.

Sarah BTW said...

i don't know guys, dyson's are rated pretty low on consumer reports (aka my shopping bible).

amanda said...

well, miss consumer reports is my bible blah-blah...

why don't you rate my roomba, so i can see if i want to buy it?! quit showing off.

totally unrelated to vaccuums... but do you remember the kindercore christmas compilation with the "boring" song? i found it online... and you could download all the songs except for that one. embarrassment, maybe?

amanda said...

that's weird. that was one of my favorite songs. that would be silly to be so embarassed. i mean, that was what made kindercore so fun to me.
