Domestic Oblivion


Every. Damn. Day

You know that saying, “you learn something new every day”?  A good thing, supposedly.

I learned a very interesting factoid yesterday.  It was new to me, and very enlightening.  So much so that I feel compelled to pass it on to you.

Ready?

I learned that  IF an eight year old boy were so inclined as to clean up a spilled bowl of Cheerios and milk with the hand held vacuum, AND said vacuum was then put away for approximately a week, THEN when vacuum is turned back on the stench which is forcefully blown out the back and directly into your face is rather overpowering.

How overpowering?

Well. Strong enough to make a person vomit, right where they were standing and without warning, before even having a chance to switch off the vacuum.

Something new, every day, here at Chez Star.

On the up side he did clean up after himself. Now you just have to work on his decision making skill around appropriate tools for clean up…or perhaps you should switch out the house vacuum for a shop-vac…
