My new helper

Those who know me are aware of the fact that I really don't like to spend money, especially on items that will require maintenance!  Our current house has a lot of tile and we've been sweeping it with a broom which really does not do that great of a job.  I always feel like I am just pushing the dirt around!  While living here in Indiana I came across a little shop that fixes and sells sewing machines and vacuums.  I have to be sure I have a few minutes to spare because Mr. Sink always has a lot of stories to share!  :)  I trust him and feel like he is an honest salesman - is that possible?  Anyway, I purchased this "mighty mite" and Grace graciously modeled for me all of its many uses!  (She is cute, isn't she?)
