We don't host, but just in case anybody wanted to stop by, I had to run the Sweeper! I used the Electrolux G for the bare floors and dusting, and did all the carpets with my Hoovrah Dial-A-Matic 1110.
What did everybody else use this year? Happy Thanksgiving! Andy |

Mark, Were you visiting someone, or were you the patient? Hope things are better soon. |

I was visiting my mother who was in ICU for a week after a serious operation. I was shocked when I went to her room the first time as they had her hooked up to a ventilator & other breathing machines in an induced coma (flashback to my husband after he had a stroke & didn't make it) which they brought her out of 2 days after, 2 weeks stay in hospital & about a month in rehab facility she's doing so much better & should return to a normal life once again. I'm just glad they didn't say she's too old to make a full recovery & she will live to see her 87th birthday in December. Someone needs to write a book on how to raise parents after the age of 80.

I hope things are getting better. It is difficult caring for an aging parent when we are aging ourselves.

I've always wondered why the first Dial a Matic had a floating head and the later models had the rug adjustment on the front. Enlighten me.............. |

Used the Hoover 115 that was gifted by Frank Morgan from Alabama. While I'm sure it belched out more dust that it picked up, it was fun to use for a moment.
