That is my vacuum cleaner complete with duct tape on the cord and on the hose. I have been complaining about it for over a year now, and even hinted that I would be okay with getting a new vacuum for Christmas or my birthday. Both came and went without a new vacuum. But, the last straw came when I was vacuuming nine months pregnant and felt a horrible shock on my leg and screamed in pain. The cord had ANOTHER frayed part that had hit my leg and given me an electrical shock.
I remembered that my friend Lesley had mentioned in the comments section of my previous post that she had gotten her vacuum from Amazon. I grabbed the newest issue of Consume*r Reports which happened to feature vacuums and went online. I found this beauty and ordered it and got free shipping, no tax, and didn't even need to leave the comfort of home--thanks Lesley! It truly is a thing of beauty! 
I love it and don't mind vacuuming. It almost goes by itself! However, since I did have to order it myself, I think Santa still needs to pay me a visit on Christmas.

Nice Jaimers.
Absolutely.....I've been told that vacuums don't count.
I am so honored to be a part of your blog, Jaime. :) Isn't Amazon the best? LOVE IT!! It is always exciting to get a new vacumn- I was the same way when I got ours- I was actually looking forward to vacumning. So happy for you that you got a new one- you certainly needed it.
Looks like R2D2..or is it C3PO...I can't get it straight...and yes Santa does need to still visit you! Love, Baba HooHoo
You never ever ever buy a women a appliance, vacumn, or work out equipment for a birthday or Christmas no matter what they say. I am sorry to see our 1st vacumn leave, it had such character. monment of silence.--Bill
