A little back drop...

I was on room 2 of a 4 bedroom house, the NIGHT BEFORE my son was supposed to be born, and our 10 year old Bissell Vacuum cleaner just crapped out on me. The little spinner brush kept trying, but alas, it just couldn't suck anymore <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Anyhow, a few days later and we're back at the house. I've got a new Hoover that's doing well at the job, but I needed to get rid of that old Bissell. I put her out on the curb for the trash men to take away, right next to our garbage bin.

Well what-a-ya know, they just left it there. I thought to myself, "surely they missed it". One week passed by and I put it on the curb next to my trash can again. They still left it there!! I guess they just don't want it.

I need this thing gone. Historically, I am confident that the trash guys will take anything that is bagged. So, being the JYD that I am, I broke out the 7-11 for it's first taste of blood. We just need that Bissell in a bag <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Here is the culprit...

The chief cause of unhappiness and failure is trading what you want most in life for what you want at the moment.

It's not the size of the Schwartz that matters...
