Well, I got my Christmas wish. My children went together and bought me a Roomba. What, you may ask is a Roomba? Or you may not ask if you see the TV commercials. A Roomba is a robot vacuum cleaner. It's small, round, less than 4 inches tall and about 13 inches in diameter, and, once I have it programmed, it will zip around and vacuum my whole apartment. I decided to wait until tomorrow to do the programming. I think it's good to be awake and alert for something like that. I did. however, take time to read the warnings and instructions and I learned some interesting things. First, the instructions are written for young people with good eyesight. But I found my handy dandy magnifying glass and overcame that obstacle, I also learned that it's so simple even an eight year old can operate it (after he's properly trained). I also learned that I mustn't ride on it and I shouldn't let it out on the balcony. Friends who have these devices tell me they are wonderful and assure me I will love it. Check in again tomorrow evening.
