I Tried to Fix My Vacuum. It Broke Me First.

I thought I could save money by fixing my Shark vacuum myself. The suction was gone, and so was my patience. I emptied the dustbin, pulled out clumps of hair, even poked a broom handle through the hose. Still nothing. I spent an hour hunched over the thing, breathing in dust, hands covered in grime. I tapped the filter against the trash can until my kitchen looked like a sandstorm hit. Tried every setting. Tried waiting for it to cool down. Tried not to scream. The vacuum is still broken. My back hurts. I haven’t vacuumed in weeks. I just wanted to avoid buying a new one, but now I’m out of time, energy, and trust in DIY fixes. Next time, I’ll just budget for the repair—or at least wear gloves. #DIYDisaster #HomeBudgetFail #BrokeButCreative #Home #HomeMaintenanceRepair
