Las vacaciones del invierno

[Jessica]

Mi mamá lava la ropa. Yo no lavo.
Mi mamá pasa la aspiradora o yo paso la aspiradora. (We aren't both doing it. It's either me doing it, or my mom is doing it.)

Jessica, some of your confusion stems from the fact that you are trying to use vocabulary and verb tenses you haven't yet learned in school.
Your teacher would expect a story that includes words that are appropriate for your skill level.

Crotalito was correct when he wrote limpiemos. This is the subjunctive mood, present tense, first-person plural form of limpiar. The form you know and used is the indicative mood, present tense, first-person plural form of limpiar. Your sentence was dealing with a probable event, so it must be cast in the subjunctive mood.

My advice is that you stick to vocabulary and verb tenses you have learned. Your story will be easier for you to write and the corrections you receive will not be so hard to understand.

I told her that before, but she does not accept the correction above her post, but well, I'm person native from Mexico and my native language is Spanish as you know, then I'm not a wrong when I try to tell her the corrections of her post, but well, she thinks that can't does mistakes sometimes.

[Jessica]

tener que ver con = to have to do with

No tiene nada que ver contigo. Ella no te hablaba a ti. (It doesn't have anything to do with you. She wasn't talking to you.) Solo lamentaba que no sabe qué escribir porque no va a hacer nada durante las vacaciones. (She was only lamenting the fact that she doesn't know what to write because she isn't doing anything during winter vacation.)

Very good.

[Jessica]

Check this:

No sé si puedo jugar en la computadora por que a veces mi mamá me dice que no puedo. (I don't know if I can play on the computer because sometimes my mom tells me that I can't)
Al igual que el año pasado, este año vamos a obtener no regalos pero tengo un mp3 como un reglos muy pronto.
