Ah New Year’s Eve. I remember being young, well rested, and going out every New Year’s Eve to ring in the New Year. In my last teens and early 20s, it was so important to have a date and someone to kiss in the New Year with.
Then came marriage, children, the realization that I don’t like crowds, and I have a husband to kiss at midnight – provided I could stay awake that long. In my early 30s, sleep became much more important than watching the ball drop on the Dick Clark show or attending a party where I only knew six people, and I’d be asleep long before the New Year arrived.
This year will be no different. The only way I’ll be up at midnight is if I am reading a good book. Max will be zonked, and I am 99% certain Hubby will be too!
We are such party animals! LOL Not even the animal is a party-animal in our house!

New Years day I have to work at 6am so I’ll probably be in bed by 10 lol. Anything that involves the day going off without a crisis will be an improvement over Christmas. My family spent Christmas in urgent care….my husband had a minor ear infection after the flu, my son was sent off with a simple cold diagnosis, but I hit the jackpot with pneumonia! I am thinking we will celebrate for the little one by watching the “ball drop” on Netflix early and pretending its midnight. I hope you have a lovely night! And reading sounds like a wonderful plan!! I am on the last book in a series, maybe I’ll put a dent in that 🙂

OMG Stephanie, you poor thing. The flu is definitely making the rounds. My brother had to cancel on Christmas because he had it. I hope you are all much better, Stephanie!
