Ok friends, time to buy a vaccuuum AGAIN. Was thinking a shop vac might be more useful..... figure we have enough "elderly" here who have an opinion on this. Heeheee

A shop vac or wet dry vac is good to have. You can use it in wet mode to clean carpets!

It is also nice to have a regular vacuum with a heppa filter though.

Dh is going to retire at 65. But every day he wishes it was his last day at work.

I dont think my DH will retire, if he can avoid it. He has no SS waiting for him. Just a pension.

That is the truth!

I posted on the bakers and yum thread that I put up 6 jars of blackberry jelly yesterday!

Ron how did you get the seeds out?
I watched a video on YouTube that showed adding a bit of water and heating them a bit on the stove and mashing them with a potato masher. Then strain through cheese cloth.
