I don't take cold meds for this reason. Or drink alcohol (even before I was on meds that prohibited it). I hate not being able to think.

So now I have epilepsy, I can't remember my cats' names sometimes (they're not all new to me), and I'm constantly brain foggy. The universe does like to laugh sometimes.

I had hallucinations and delusions, was noticeably stupid, and lost a ton of weight. That was the only good part.

I’m fifty pounds up (so, fat), and not as stupid. I think I’ll take it? It was so bad.

Roomba!

Here I have hardwoods, but when I'm done renovating my house I'll have luxury vinyl.

When he comes in from being outside if it's muddy, I've taught him to wipe his paws (he does spins on the welcome mat).

I vacuum the dog hair off of the sofa, but the sofa is also gray so his black hair isn't so super obvious.

But the big one is the Roomba. He (the vacuum) goes around and does the main floor every day. In addition to that, he goes and vacuums by the kitty litter another three times (with an optional fourth), and one additional time through the guest bathroom. Love my Roomba. When my house is done I'll have one on each floor.
