On the old board I posed my concern that I may have overstepped my boundaries on getting my daughter a roomba for Christmas and all of you said she would not be upset since she had discussed her own issues with the housecleaning with me anyway.

Well when she opened the box she was very pleased and actually said she had hoped that it might be under the tree. She called yesterday and said she was putting the roomba to work in the living room and she also said she had already let it sweep the kitchen and that it had done a better job than anyone ever could with a broom. So you guys were right the roomba was a total hit as a gift.
