(Health should get an honorable mention as well but that sometime takes a back seat when my soul is calling for ice cream…… Continue reading Just what do you think you’re doing?
Even the vacuum is distressed!
“Me too Deebot, me too” I think as I’m searching all morning for a robotic vacuum that was sending out distress calls and then shut off because I took too long. I can’t be the only one who has decided to just shut off or shut down once I’ve sent out so many unanswered distress… Continue reading Even the vacuum is distressed!
