I had totally cleaned my friend's house, top to bottom. As I opened my door to go to church, on my little porch were: the Hoover Convertibles, one a Ranger, the other a metal base, the baby blue RegIna, and the Eureeeeeka book.The non-Hoovers were a fright. But, the Hoovers were a Halloween "Scream come true".
Photos to follow tonight.

Congratulations. You must be a good friend to clean a complete house top to bottom. I'm lucky to find time to clean one room top to bottom. Looking forward to the pictures. So out of curiosity, what was the fine Eureka literature to which you referred?

It was a big house.

9 rooms PLUS a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a basement.I used about 35 pails of water to scrub the baseboard radiators, floors, showers, etc.  We're good friends.  He couldn't really clean like that, nor does he really know how to.

The Eureka material is the hardcover book,

gottahaveahoove's profile picture
which he got with the purchase of his Eureka cleaner. It tells 'how to clean everything with little work'. I could say a LOT of things, but, I won't. To quote Michele Obama, "When they go low...go high". But I could say TONS of snarky things. But, do I bash??? No, I don't. But, I could. But I won't. I'll just show y'all the book.

Actually, your commentary on the Eureka book is amusing. Keep up the good work.

Thanks, Jeff.

I have my faults, God knows, but.when it comes to being a friend, I like to think I'm one of the most loyal friends one could have. No, wait...I just described a Golden Retriever!
I have some friends who'll remain strong friends until the day I'm poured into my little urn, (or Hoover C bag).
I'm fiercely devoted. My late aunt saw me cleaning, etc and said, in her Irish brogue, "You'd make a fine husband". I thought, "That's exactly what I had in mind".
