The new robovac. :woohoo: It's charging today and I'll give it a test drive in the morning.  :thumbup:

What make is it?

Eufy. It's an inexpensive one. When I first went shopping for a robovac, I was hesitant to make a huge investment not knowing how it would work out in our home or with the dog. I chose it not only based on price, but also because the negative reviews all seemed to be from people who had already owned a smarter vacuum. It doesn't have mapping or other fancy features, so it roams around seemingly randomly yet still manages to get everywhere do a good job.  :dunno: The previous one lasted three years without ever losing battery life, and it likely would have lasted longer if it weren't for the fact I damaged the lens. Anyway, we run it everyday so I felt it had more than earned its keep and opted to buy another exactly like it.  :thumbup:

Finally, this book!

Amazon offers this big book for $80, but I bought a used copy from these guys:

https://www.betterworldbooks.com/product/detail/the-biographical-encyclopedia-of-jazz-9780195074185
They mostly ship out of Mishawaka, IN.

This is my third order from this site and no problems at all, except maybe a little slow. Amazon has spoiled some of us.

I ordered some shelf brackets from Amazon last week in the morning and they arrived that same afternoon.  FFS!
Amazon's distribution center is out by the Indy airport, sixty five miles away.
Lowe's is five miles away, across town and it takes three days to get a pallet of mulch delivered from their floor stock!
Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

A thank you card from my cousin and his wife sent to my mother for something obviously contributing to their baby shower

I was torn between that one and the Coredy when I got mine...got the Coredy. Still no complaints. It's held up very well.

Someone bought the 2.5 acres below the other house that was up for tax sale that consists of nothing but an unaccessible, undevelopable ravine, and the septic tank/leech bed for the 5 houses there and sent all of us a letter offering to sell it at a special discount of only $20,000.

Good luck with that.
