Where have I been...

So you might be asking yourself, "Where's sharon?"  Ok, maybe not, but I'll like to think you've missed me.  I just really haven't been in the "blogger" mood.  Nothing much but busy getting ready for Christmas.  Which I really don't like celebrating it here.  It does not feel like Christmas when it's Sunny and 70 or even 80 degrees.  Ok, so that's not what it's been the past few days.  It actually felt like maybe November/October weather.  It's been pouring rain. 

So lets see what have I been doing if I've neglected my computer/and blog for so long?  Mmmm....I cleaned my carpets in my living room.  After being at my parents newly painted house my house just looking dirty, filthy...I didn't like it.  Granted Mauve carpets don't help.  And seeing how the house is like 40 years old it's never going to feel like my parents house that's only 20 years old.  But I went on a huge cleaning spree.  And I even cleaned my kitchen floor which many of you don't know but I hate it!  We have Mexican pavers, which have slowly come unsealed. They look a little like this (from Pioneer woman cooks) but mine aren't as dark as hers or as shiny.  So it's really hard to keep clean, the tiles just suck in the dirt.  I've been on such a cleaning frenzy Mark said, "When are you parents coming?"  I told him on Christmas day.  I was deep cleaning a week ago.  

Along with cleaning we decorated the house, which I swear every year that I'll never do it again, or just do it when everyone is gone.  I assume people are going to help and it's going to be an enjoyable moment is very laughable.  But it got done.  

I'm pretty set for Christmas, did my dinner shopping the other day.  Let's see...

We've also had Savannah with the 24 hour stomach flu, with fever and all.  We've all been fighting the cold and coughs.  Only Mark doesn't have the cough or cold, cross your figures he doesn't get i yacking t.  Poor Drew has had it the worst, so congested, and coughing, he even lost his voice for a couple days.  It was so sad and he tried to talk it was no more than a little squeak.  

And now Taylor is sick and I hope it's just the 24 hour stomach bug as well, no fever so that's good.  She threw-up all night, she was in my bed, so I am now double washing my sheets, once it cold to get the red color out (we had taco soup last night) and the second time in hot to kill the germs hopefully.  

One more day until School is out, I'm so excited, the kids are beyond ready.  Savannah can barely get out of bed in the morning, she is not a morning person.  And Michael gets up at 5:30 to watch some cartoon.  He's crazy!  

Lets see that's about it.  Now I need to re-clean my house for next week, wrap presents, and hopefully just enjoy the season.
