What's Happening New Year's??

[DianaB]

I'm going to Janet's for New Years!!!! It sounds so yummy!!!!! I love seafood!!!! Seriously, I don't know what we're doing this year. We have some friends who usually have a party and that's probably where we'll be going but if not, we'll be staying home. I'm so tired of parties right now that just being home and not being around people sounds really good! We always visit and play games. Taboo is always fun and Battle of the Sexes!!!

There for awhile we didn't know if we were going to be able to fix our seafood feast this year and we've done it since Ricky was little. But, we came up with the extra money and now it's a go!! Yay...I love seafood.

I guess that we're staying home tonight. Our friends decided they weren't having a party this year. I usually would but I just don't have the strength to get ready for another one so we're just going to be home. I told my husband that I would just like to watch some movies and he agreed. Jaci's making plans with a couple of her friends so I told her that they could come here since we're going to be home anyway.

A peaceful night will be good for you Diana. You've been partying up a storm anyways, LOL.

Our chores (most of them anyway) have been completed. So hubby and I are just going to watch some movies and eat snacks. I have an artichoke/spinich dip in the oven and making loaded cheese fries.

A fire is burning now so it's finally warming up in the house, thank goodness! I've got a kidney/bladder infection going on now due to stress so it will be nice to plop down in front of that fire and snack, rest, keep warm, and veg!!!!!!

However, I think Id still rather be eating Janet's seafood feast with those cheese biscuits. Gosh that sounds so good!

we have already had our dinner, i took out those individual wok pans, and put them on the table, different meats, and wok veg, with lots of different sauces. Now i'm on champagne. Got cheese platters, and other snacks for later on.

I wish I could get you all here to eat with us. What a party that would be...until about 9:00 PM and then I get so sleepy from the seafood and beer that I go to bed... I can't help it! I'm not the party girl I use to be..LOL

My son usually wakes me right before midnight so we can watch the ball drop.

Brendon and I are hanging out with our friends Sarah and Ryan (unless I am in pain again tonight). Not a party or anything, but just the four of us. It should be lots of fun!

Angie, what's going on? Are you still having problems?

Mandy and Lindsey, I didn't mean to leave you out!!!

Mandy, your food sounds really good too. I love stir-fry!!! Are you having a party or did you just set this up for you and your husband!! It sounds really nice.

Lindsey, I hope that you enjoy your evening and have a Happy New Year. I hope that your plans work out and your relationships are happy ones this year!!!!!

We went to a friends house. They had all been drinking since 5 when we got there at 8 so they were pretty drunk & obnouxous. so my husband & i and another party goer that arrived late, played cards most of the night. There was a lot of drama. One of the drunk party goers was carring the hostess (who knows why) & dropped her into a wall. She began wailing & her drunk husband wouldn't let sober me take a look at her to make sure she was okay. This was at about 11:30; so my husband & I cleaned up their kitchen & put everything away. Waited til the ball dropped & then headed home. We drove our other friend to our house because she didn't feel she could drive, because of the amount she had to drink & the weather (8 inches had fallen while we were there). She crashed at our house. Every year at their house is an adventure to say the least, but at least the rest of the drunken party goers spend the night there so they were safe.

That is 3/4 of the reason we quit going OUT to celebrate. Don't know why people have to get so drunk out of their minds to enjoy something. I just don't get it. I drank one beer with my seafood supper and that was it. The other 1/4 reason is because I don't want to be out on the road with these people behind the wheel of a car. I'll just keep my family home where it's safe.

Sorry didn't mean to preach...there are other places you could go without dealing with drunks all evening. Maybe invite a few people to your place.
