Andy and I were invited to a party in Chicago, but he's not up for travelling (not that I blame him).
So we are going to stay in, watch the ball drop on TV, and spend an intimate evening alone. :D

We're not doing anything special - just inviting a few people over in the afternoon for a quick visit, then they'll be on their way before dark. The kids are planning on inviting a ton of their friends over. We have plenty of movies and are stockign up on chips and soda. :D
I'll hide out in my room all night with the monsters while my house is invaded my teenagers. :D
hmmmm.... I am probably just stayin' at home watchin' movies wif my family and waiting for 2005!
Going to have Christmas late! Looking forward to it. I sort of missed out this year.
New Years Plans? what is that? We haven't done anything for New Years since I don't know when...lol. I actually have that whole weekend off but Alden is working 2nd trick :( I'll probably be hanging out with the girls and watching movies. Sounds like a nice evening to me.
Robin :)
nothing. i have to work.:(
We are going to a party at my sister in laws. I'm thrilled that she's having one because hubby wanted to have one at our house but I don't think the furkids would be too thrilled about it. Neither would I because I'm still worn out from all the Christmas company.
Nothing fancy ;)
My husband has 4 sister (he ie the youngest of 5 ;) :D ). Every year, on December 31th, we organize a family dinner. As we are with 5, it is our turn every 5 years :) ! Next year is our turn!!
That evening starts with a long dinner and yummie desserts. At midnight, we all wish each other a Happy New Year and give 3 kisses to everyone. Then we exchange gifts. 1 month ago, we all got the name of ONE person, and we promised to buy a present for him/her. It is all a big secret! While all of us women chat the night away, our men play cards, and drink a glass of good wine. We usually go home around 3 am :)
I have to work until midnite so I will be going to work in 2004 and coming home in 2005! :)
But on Saturday we always have dinner with the family and we are going to my Mom's house.
This is the first Christmas and New Years without my grandma and she is the reason we always had dinner on New Years day. She always fixed saurkraut and made pillows. (that was something can't remember why tho.)
I am about you're kids age Debbie and that is exactly why I did on Christmas day and the day after!!!Quote:

I watched 6 videos this weekend! :eek:
I have to work until around 10, then we're invited to my husband's cousin's party where....shhhhhhhh........... he's going to propose to his girlfriend of 6 years :D :D :D
It should be a blast!!!
I suppose Mike and I will go feed the stray cats at Wal-Mart again. Watching a movie sounds good, I am going to buy Garfield and that is what I'll do! Make that Oreo desert to take to New Years dinner at my sons... My partying days are over... Been there, done that.. Had fun, now it's time to relax.
My friend's children have a new home (beautiful old home, but new to them).
They want to break it in by having a New Year's Eve party.
It should be a lot of fun.........all ages there................and fun people everyone.
I just hope I don't yawn too much.........this body likes its bed a lot earlier than midnight!
Slick,
I wish I lived closer. We could get hopelessly drunk, pig out on shrimp cocktail and watch old movies till we pass out!!
I'm not doing anything either. I probably won't make it to midnight. I figure the new year is coming whether I'm awake or not, so why lose sleep over it???
I WAS thinking about trying to teach MooShoo how to play strip poker, but what fun would THAT be? :p:p
Happy New Year everyone!
Sounds like everyone has some fun and/or relaxing things to do. :)
At least if you're working, maybe it'll be slow and you can fool around on PT?? Or so busy it goes by fast?
Lut...that sounds like a really great tradition! :)
