    As of now, staying home. Might go to church for 11 PM communion service.
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    Getting ready for Christmas!

    We will have Christmas on January 3rd this year with my family at my sister's house - Lady and her humans are heading East to be there, and our nephew is flying in from San Diego (he's in the Navy) so the whole (loud, boisterous) gang will be there!

    Bruce will be working a gig (he runs sound for a band) at a local "dive" bar. He wants me to go with him, but I'm just not sure yet. I might head over there closer to midnight so I can at least be with him at that time. But I guess I'll just be kicking it with my mini-zoo here at home.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    What I dream of doing is have dinner with a good looking man, go out and do some dancing and welcome in the new year in Jackson Square in New Orleans.. But then I wake up and realize, that ain't gonna happen so I'll settle for being here with my fur kids and welcoming the new year here with them and HOPE I won't have to be making my way to some boat on the Mississippi River to go to WORK on New Years Eve!

    I'll stay home with Fister, he's terrified of all the fireworks that goes on. So I'm putting a huge cardboard box on my bed and cover it with duvets and blankets, just leaving a little hole so he can get in and out.

    For dinner, I'll have fish, that's a tradition in Denmark (cod with mustard sauce, actually). I do have a botlle of Champaine, but I may not open it - no fun drinking it alone.

    I probably won't sleep until well after 1.00 because of the fireworks - and I will probably watch Dinner for One on TV.

    Probably napping on the couch! I may try to stay up, but I'm not sure if I will make it or not. My husband and I will probably just go out to eat or order in and then hang out.

    Plan change due to a snow storm. It started snowing just after 9 this morning, and will continue overnight, anywhere for 4 to 6 inches predicted, with blistering wind chills!

    So not going out for Chinese food, decided that won't work for Dad. I bought some appetizer type things to make here. My bro will come over if the driving permits.

    And not going to the Zoo tomorrow either, the high will be 21, with wind chills close to zero. I don't need to see the Arctic Foxes THAT much!

    My favourite way to spend an evening - with my husband and my little furbaby - having a quiet dinner, drinking good wine and listening to good music just the best way to end a year and reflect on a new one

    Happy New Year to everyone wherever you are
    Yours in Whiskers
