New Years Eve, Home or Going Out.

Daughter and I are staying home. The last time I went out on New Years Eve (probably 18 yrs. ago), DH had to work and a friend talked me into dinner/get together at her house.  It was a Friday night, I left a 9pm because I didn't feel well, went to Dr. on Monday with pneumonia.

 

We will make a good meal and have a rousing game of cards or Scrabble.

 

Everyone have fun and stay safe.  At least the weather won't be the frozen tundra is was last weekend.

I hate New Years Eve, it just makes me sad. We'll have snacks , maybe a cocktail and early to bed.

For 8 long years in the 80s I worked in a restaurant, I worked 8 NYEs and hated it. Too many drunk rude people.

Years ago we frequently went out for NYE--Times Square, Disney World, Colonial Williamsburg, skiing in Vermont, etc.  Haven't done that in at least a decade.  Happy we did it when we did!

 

I'm in the minority because I like New Year's Eve.  I feel it's an accomplishment to have gotten through another year and hope that in the new year I'll do better!

Re: New Years Eve, Home or Going Out.

Years ago my husband and I would go out to eat, not sure why, they printed a 'special' menu...just higher prices


We now stay in and most likely asleep before midnight.  We are going shopping on Sunday, I have not been to the mall in over a month and I want to spend some money.

 

Our weather has done a 180 since last week, so the roads here will be safe from bad weather....

Staying home and probably won't be going to bed early due to idiots shooting off fire crackers to all hours of the night. Last year I had to put in my noise canceling headphone just to get some sleep. Will end up tired on Sunday.
