is it a kind of dream?

and you know you're domesticated when:

You get excited about getting a  vacuum cleaner for Christmas. That's really sad actually...

I have a Dyson.

I have the DC03, the so-called 'lightweight' older one - its a few years old now, got it in 03. I've always had a Dyson -before that, it was the really old DC01.

I hate it. Its heavy, its hard to push, it hurts my neck. It sucks, and it works, but meh. Dyson isnt all its hyped up to be. Not after a few years of use, and not at that extortionate price, anyway.

Today, i got a little bagless Vax Astrata off ebay for next to nothing. Yay.

It sucks too.
I can push it without pain.

I am happy.

This new house is much less dirty/dusty than the old one - the old one was 15 feet from a very busy road. This one isnt. One more reason to live in a maisonette off the busy road. YES.

:D

Tuesday we had a christmas nativity play at playgroup. - i got to see pumpkin be an angel in the play, in a costume and everything. I was able to record this one with my nokia, even though i was 'in' it as well, helping keep the shepherds in place, ha ha.

Today we had 'carols round the tree' at nursery school. - i got to see pumpkin sing and dance some unbearably cute songs. We couldn't record it, natch, but there was a DVD made earlier in the week, so i will get to purchase and take one home for better half to see.

I ♥ Christmas. This is SO MUCH FUN. :)
