So to the casual outside observer, it might look like I’m behind today, but actually, I’m ahead. Just not with my blog.

But I’ve tackled a bunch of those tasks you simply don’t want to deal with, and with those tucked away, here I am.

Yay!

Also in the amazing news front, the Roomba is here to stay. My parents were planning on upgrading theirs, and with my slavish devotion, they decided to do it sooner rather than later. “Roombie” and I are ecstatic.

You may or may not be surprised to know that one of the inventions that was most liberating for women was the washing machine. With it, a task that took most of the week could be completed in far less time; their hours opened up like flowers.

The robotic vacuum has the same feel to me. Here is this onerous task, vacuuming, which is physical and irritating and difficult to do thoroughly, and now it can be done with the push of a button and not even much of a second thought, especially with the newer models.

It may not be my robot butler, but we’re getting there. Don’t you love a happy ending?

So I’m off for more Monday. I hope you have a great start to your week.
