A Vacuum Cleaner How Nice

The worst wedding gift I ever received was a vacuum cleaner.
I despise vacuuming and my dog hate the sound of it.
I wanted elegant things – glass goblets, droplet prisms,
lace curtains, not a small round annoyingly loud vacuum
cleaner. Thanks Mom and Dad. Great gift! This was before
you could make a list. You got whatever someone else
wanted to get rid of. They ordered a new one for themselves’
we received their hand-me-down-one.

When it comes to giving gifts, few people consider the recipient! Aloha!

Wow! So true. But, I still have a few precious, beautiful pieces of glass given to Deb and I when we married. I have them out where I can enjoy them. I keep the vacuum cleaner in a closet!

I do not like to vaccuum in the least!
