Spring is on its way

Spring must be on its way, since the sun is shining and the weather is a 'warm' and comfortable 55 degrees outside. I went to town this morning without a jacket. I'm looking forward to saying goodbye and good riddance to winter this year.

We finally got a new vacuum cleaner, since they don't usually last more than a year in our house, if that. We bought one of those yellow Dysons and that sucker really works! Plus, it has a 5-year warrenty so it should be worth the price. I'm hoping it will stand up to the stuff my kids and husband track in, not to mention the dog hair and birdseed.



And for my buddies at Dogs on Thursday, here's a picture of Capone wearing a bowler hat (which he borrowed from Mr. Potato Head). Ain't he cute and snazzy?
