We got a Roomba! I love it! It's like our own little Rosie. I wish there was one that would do the dishes, laundry, dust and clean the bathrooms too! Already I feel like a cleaner person. And it's pretty quiet too. I could probably do a better job vacuuming the whole house in half an hour than this does in 2 hours, but I still love that it does it on its own and I don't have to lift a finger. Yay for modern technology that lets me be lazier and cleaner than I was before!
This time next week I will be in New York City! So excited! Well less about New York, than about the whole trip in general. We will be going to New York for a wedding, and then to Philly for the reception the next day. Then we go to LONDON! PARIS! AMSTERDAM! Brussels!...yeah, Brussels is less exciting, but right in the middle of them all so we figure, why not. And today I got a great last minute deal on our New York hotel! We need to stay in the Lower East Side because the wedding is in Brooklyn, but the afterparty is in LES, so I called a hotel near the hotel the family is staying at to check for availability, and they gave me a better price than the most discounted price I found on the internet! I was amazed! I guess personal contact still counts for something these days. Just need to book a few nights in a London hotel, and the Brussels, Amsterdam and Paris we'll play by ear. I've been to London and Paris before, but it's a first for the hubby. Can't wait! Just one more week!
