I recently ordered a Dyson Absolute Animal for Allison and I for our Christmas gift to each other. We’re going non practical gifts as well, don’t worry. I had an interesting experience with the ordering of this product through Amazon but it is here now. I am going to open it up very soon.
I just set up and used the Absolute animal. It is incredible. I can’t believe how much crap I was able to pick up so easily and quickly and in such a small area. About 2X8 is what I vacuumed and I filled the canister with cat hair. So gross.
After dinner I went and used the Dyson some more. I emptied the canister 2 more times. I can’t believe how much was on the floors and in the carpets and how much the Dyson picked up.
Who is Ada Blackjack, well she is a survivor. Ada Blackjack survived on Wrangler Island in the Arctic for 2 years with poor weather conditions, poor food supply and for most of the time a man who was dying of scurvy as her only companion. She had to learn how to hunt, trap, shoot and face her fears. She was a tiny woman, an Eskimo (Inuit). And she was the only woman in this pack of adventurers and explorers. The men who went to Wrangler island were young healthy stout of heart men. They were adventurers and they were so young. The youngest was 19 when he left on the expedition. The oldest I think was 28. Ada was 23 or 25. I have been reading the book Ada Blackjack: A True Story of Survival in the Arctic. I am almost to the end. I enjoyed this book and would like to read The Ice Master: The Doomed 1913 Voyage of the Karluk and the Miraculous Rescue of her Survivors by the same author Jennifer Niven. This is actually a story about the same island but years earlier with some of the same people and their tale of survival. The story has been interesting and terrifying and sad. I like how Niven tells the story however. You may want to pick up these books to read sometime.
