Doesn’t it warm your heart these days to see all of the new stories about creature shelters being completely empty? Apparently, so many people are looking for companionship during the quarantine that creature adchoice agencies have been able to adopt or foster every creature in their care. I find this to be incredible and it honestly makes me feel optimistic about the world. I also happen to be one of the fosters that those articles are talking about. A few weeks ago I welcomed Waffles into my dwelling and he has been a blessing… for the most part, and you never know what an creature has been through in the past, but clearly Waffles had battled vacuums before in his lifetime. I realized this in the worst possible way, as I was attempting to clean out my air ducts the other morning. You see, since I got waffles it had become apparent that my indoor air quality was quickly adjusting. I had noticed that the indoor air temperature was fluctuating from boiling to cold for a few months, but it was apparent that my Heating & A/C system was filthy after I saw big clumps of hair flying through the air. I was able to change out the air filter without any concerns, but I honestly wanted to address the dirty air ducts as well. I figured I could use my Shop-Vac to effectively scrub the air duct, and dragged the outdated appliance in from the garage! Just as I climbed up on a chair and began attacking the filth in my air ducts, Waffles ran in from the other room and attacked my vacuum. I fell off the chair, landed on the Shop-Vac, and scared the hell out of Waffles. I called an Heating & A/C specialist after that. They can deal with the dog and the ducts.
