One holiday down, one to go. Unfortunately for me, my cold was not gone by Christmas. I didn't make as many things as I had planned. I did get the dinner done and my sister brought dessert. Thankfully, she helped me clean up by washing the pots and I dried them. Thank goodness for dishwashers when it comes to other things like measuring cups, glasses, dishwasher safe dishes, cups and flatware. Needless to say I didn't use the usual Christmas dishes and silverware because they have to be washed by hand. I opted for the easy way out because I was still pretty ill. No one minded at all. I'm glad they're not fussy about things like that.
We had a nice visit with my sister and her husband, my brother and Mom. Everyone was pleased with the gifts they received which were thoughtfully selected for them.
Today I started catching up with laundry since we're not expecting company. I'll continue to do it tomorrow and we'll be all caught up. I'm putting clean sheets on the bed today. Sometime this weekend I'll vacuum and wash the kitchen floor. That'll probably take place on Sunday after Church. I'm even ready to put 2 wreaths and 1 centerpiece away for the season. We'll still have enough decorations "decking the halls" for another week.
I hope that everyone had a Merry Christmas with their loved ones. Here's to a Happy and Healthy New Year for us all.
