Here the other day, my oldest princess and I were cleaning some drawers in the kitchen. We were also using the vacuumcleaner for this job. When it wasn't in use, it was only lying there on the floor because I was going to do the rest of the house when the drawers were done. Then my little princess found out that she also wanted to take part in the housecleaning, so she grabbed the vacuumcleaner and worked a little bit here and a little bit there.
Well, sometimes she is allowed to sit on the floor in our bedroom to watch TV. I heard that she went in there with the VC, and after a while we heard a happy voice saying "Yes, I did it!" Oh, that's great, I thought, she did it! Hmhm, did what?? We rushed into the bedroom! She had definately managed to clean up. For some reason she had brought a cup of old milk (lousy houswife and mother!) into the bedroom and managed to spill the whole cup on the floor. (Luckily it wasn't on the bed!) And she had managed to clean up with the VC! Yeak! That would have been ok if the VC was ment to be used with liquids as well as dust, which it wasn't! Luckily the hose(?) was 10 m long, the milk never reached the machine, unluckily, how do you clean 10 m long hose(?) ? I had to bring it outside and use the garden hose so that water could flush through and clean it up inside, and.... then let it dry for some days! No more housecleaning that day! But I have really missed that thing, and today I couldn't wait any longer! I desperately needed to clean up, and I did! (too!) No milk this time!
