Meet Matilda. The brand-new-suck-up-the-dust-bunnies sweeper. She is lightweight, she sucks up those dust bunnies in a flash and she was cheap. The husband wanted a more expensive gadgety (is that a word?) sweeper but Matilda was begging to come home.
Look what arrived in my house. Aren't they pretty?
Look who was singing "baby come back, any kind of fool could see......." in the backyard.
Is this who sent the flowers?
That broom better watch it, as I know someone who could put it to good use.
