All that hard work

For the most part, I don't swear. Ever since I figured out that my precious 18 month old only child was muttering "Jesus Christ" and "For Christ's Sake" while she helped me pick up... I stopped. I'm not above a "dammit" now and then, but for the most part I steer clear of Carlin's Seven Words You Can't Say On TV.

Until the other day.

Fortunately, all the kids were at school.

I was taking advantage of cleaning while they were gone. That's the best time - because it stays clean until they get home. For a whopping hour I would have a clean house.

Until this happened:

Apparently the latch that holds the cannister isn't working.

Dammit.
