A Lesson from the Dyson

In our house we have the Dyson Animal which is convenient because we also have the Callie animal (our furry child). I am not sure how she can possibly require grooming; based on the fur deposited throughout the house, she should be hairless.

I love my Dyson now, though I was ready to throw it in the trash when we got it 5 years ago. After vacuuming a few times I complained to the Hubs that I wasn't even filling the super duper cyclonic chamber thingy anymore. Being the logical but understanding guy he is, the hubs chose to take a closer look at the Dyson rather than toss it like I suggested. After a few moments, mystery solved. I had not checked any of the connection points you are supposed clean out or at least look at after every few uses. He proceeded to pull junk from every curve, nook and cranny of the machine. Once he finished retrieving Callie's winter coat and half the flower bed, the Dyson's cyclonic thing-a-ma-jig was operating in overdrive again.

When somebody seems different than I would expect - I hope I remember the Dyson's little lesson and look before I toss; because they might be dealing with the junk I put in their path!
