Pretty darn neglected

Well, Christmas has been  awesome.  Aside from making sure that:

1. presents purchased and wrapped
2. stocking crap purchased and stuffed in stockings
3. an entire grocery stores worth of food transported to our house
4. cooking and delivering treats to home teachees, visiting teachees, a few neighbors,
5. a fun ornament making party for Ethan and the cousins (instead of gingerbread houses)
6. X-mas breakfast (cinnamon rolls and sausage) and X-mas dinner (steak and shrimp) and gluten free bread and pancakes for Breanne
7. Forcing Brandon to shop online the after Christmas sales for his gifts from us(clothing).  I was on my phone and computer, he was in his apt. on same, we coordinated , I ordered - took HOURS.  Still, way better than arguing and dragging ourselves around the stores, and the deals, people, the deals!  How will he ever manage to look like a DI reject hobo now?

OTHER than the above, it's been easy street around here!  TV (assorted holiday specials), internet, books (The Lost Hero by Rick Riodan - more fun interesting than the Percy Jacksons) movies: (Despicable Me, Tangled, Unstoppable) games, Oh my!  Monday Roger took Ethan ice fishing with Uncle Lamar, and today they are skiing.  I am HOME ALONE, ooh baby (fist pumping). 

Did you know that Pandora will cut you off after 40 hours?  Holiday folk music channel, you are my heart and soul.  Hence, I am going one last time through my own Xmas CD's today, before I cut myself off, cold turkey.  The inmates here, they are rebelling. 

We spent a pretty penny this year on the BEST thing: Phillips Sonicare toothbrushes with UV sanitizer and Orabrush tongue scrubbers for the whole family.  They Rock!!!  ( I really wanted to capitalize rock, but I may be overdoing it.)   ((will work on my overuse of parenthesis later))  My mouth has that "just back from the dentist" sensation of so very, very clean, slick and kinda sore.  I have the breath of a crisp pine tree forest in winter.  I'd kiss ya, but then I'd get germs in my mouth.
