I came home last night to a brown paper package on my doorstep from Courtney. I thought, what the heck is this thing, and we quickly ripped the paper off to find a Roomba! Courtney sent me a iRobot Roomba!

We immediately opened it up and let it run around the house, and the cats were just freaking out. Staring at it in amazement. It was funny.

It went around the great room for awhile, then it found it’s way into our bedroom and went under the bed. It was there for a long time, then it started beeping at us. We got it out, and it was full of cat hair! I honestly don’t think I have ever vacuumed under my bed, and the paperwork says it “hunts out dirt” so it did it’s job, that’s for sure!

It’s really going to help out a lot because I can no longer run the vacuum without having back pain. That repetitive motion just throws my back into a frenzy. Courtney is such a giving person, and I’m so happy to call her my friend. Thanks again Court!

She bought you one? That’s so awesome! I LOVE mine! I’m trying to talk my uncles/aunts/extended family to go in on one for my Grandma for her birthday.

Hee! Those are great–makes me wish I had one. I can’t even REACH under the bed with any of my brooms or vacuums.

Wow! That was so awesome of her to send you one.
I love my roomba too. It seriously has been a major improvement keeping my floors clean. I have back pain doing the vac too, and the roomba has made my life so much easier. I love it.
His name is Rob. Rob the roomba. LOL :D

My wife wants to get one to help control the dust bunnies under our bed, but I think it would drive the dogs berzerk…

That is so cool, Julie.

Rob pointed out the Roomba in a magazine recently and asked if I had ever heard of such a thing. Not sure what cave he’d been living under… LOL!

Enjoy!

I got a roomba earlier this year and my cats would try to sneak up on it until the roomba started going in their direction, then they would run away. It was going really great for a while, but the battery stopped working and we had to get a new one from the manufacturer.

That was awesome of Courtney! Happy roombaing!
