Today's drama has been brought to you by the letter V.
The vacuum died. I took it down to the vacuum cemetery (aka basement) to join the other fallen comrades (this makes three broken in the basement).
So, I went overstock and bought this.
It was on sale.

Free shipping and no sales tax.
I the accrued frequent flier miles on two different airlines.
It will arrive next week and until then, I will use the shop vac. We are heading for an overnight in the mountains, so I will not use that until Sunday evening.
I would like the ever popular Dyson - but that is not in the cards!
So, this is a great way to spend $40.00 another fun way is to fill up the car, which happen in a bit.
