Amy's B&B open for business!

Ok – so maybe it’s less of a bed and more of a futon. And some mornings I struggle getting myself breakfast so you might be on your own in that department as well, but “Amy’s Futon open for business” didn’t sound particularly appropriate!
Anyway, all kidding aside, I’ve managed to unpack all the boxes that came in the first load. Everything has a place and everything is in its place (for the time being anyway). Those of you who know me well, know that the photos below may be the cleanest my bedroom will ever be ;o) (Sidebar - Just realised that I left the CF card with the photos on it at home, photos of the new place to follow shortly!)

I have already hosted my first dinner guests as my landlord and his girlfriend, who live upstairs, came over Sunday night. I’m also expecting my first houseguest, as Carsen will be visiting from Calgary enroute to the Roots and Blues. Can’t wait to catch up with her! I am already booking into the fall and winter so those of you looking for a long weekend away or a ski holiday should call now!

Now for a brief infomercial…
My new place is all tile, so when I moved in, I was given a couple of area rugs for my place by a guy at work. (Thanks a million Nate!) The carpets had been stored in a basement though and needed a good vacuuming. My sister recently got a Dyson and offered to lend it to me, until I got my vacuum unpacked. If you’ve never read up on these, you need to check them out (www.dyson.com). I didn’t think it was possible to get this excited about housecleaning! Yes I am now officially a domestic dork, but it was amazing! If you’ve never tried a Dyson before, using one will result in one of 2 things:
1. You will never want to own a place with carpet again after seeing how much dust this thing pulls up or 2. You will never want to own a vacuum other than a Dyson again.

Now the only catch is that I need to start a “Buy-Amy-A-Dyson” Fund in order to be able to afford one!
