Christmas Gifts

ok, i've been a slacker at posting but i finally found my camera adapter. so, first of all i'd like to tell you that i had the best Christmas ever. as far as presents go, anyway. my two favorites:

the Virco - Zuma Lab Stool i've been using a kitchen chair at the computer for way too long. the thing that is special about this chair is that it is a drafting chair. our computer is on a counter higher than desks. most drafting chairs are black and ugly. virco was the only cool one i could find.

and the Oreck XL® Ultra vacuum. i know, its not the futuristic dyson but i wanted a bag. i hate emptying canisters. we got a dog in november and we really needed a new vacuum. not something i would normally ask for but i didn't want to save up my own allowance for it. i love this vacuum. it has a ten year warranty and it is only 8 lbs. i can whip it around with ease. just keep the kids away. (sorry about the eye chloe)
