The Vacuum Fairy

As opposed to other types of fairies, a vacuum fairy does not leave something behind after they take what you leave them. Last night Julie and I decided to take our old vacuum cleaner out to the curb with the rest of the garbage, now that we have our nice Dyson vacuum cleaner (see earlier post). We thought that someone might take it away before the sanitary engineers arrived this morning. Or, one of them might take it to use elsewhere. Anyway, when I left the house this morning, approximately 5:30am, the vacuum was gone! The Vacuum Fairy had come in the night! We were thinking it would have disappeared closer to 8am.

If only the fairy would have left us some money. :)
(We're just glad it is out of our house, and in the hands of someone who thinks they can put it to good use.)
