Happy face

We usually just stay home & watch movies & have snacks. We watch the ball come down & then go to bed. I know, not very exciting is it? I would rather stay home than be out on the roads with all the people that are drinking.

I think I already said what I will be doing but not sure. We will be over with Gina and Kent he makes great Margaritas but this ole gal will only have one. And eat some snacks after the ball drops will come on home. I don't like being out on the roads either with all the drunks.

Will probably stay home and watch movies, snacks. We don't go far from home and are careful here. We have a lot of teens and idiots who have nothing better to do than shoot their guns all night long (before midnite and after). Didn't used to be this way, but is now. Had someone "accidently" shot seriously in the past, so we stay inside and keep the dogs in too. You'd think the police could stop some of it, but they want us to go out and get an address.......... that is how the other person was accidently seriously shot....... probably not an accident!
Anyway, I stay in and watch movies away from the windows!

Vivian, how scary!

We will stay home, watch a movie or play games....... I doubt we stay up to welcome in the new year. I got used to going to bed when the kiddos were little. Now I like to sleep more than I like staying up! lol

We will stay in for New Years Eve. I have to work 10am to 6pm my regular Wednesday. It is just so much safer these days to stay home. We will probably watch Dick Clark. Happy New Year Everyone Jackie

There is a family game night at the church I attend and belong to.
Starts at 7:00 and after a time of prayer we will play board games, or air hockey, or ping pong, or card games, or basketball or volleyball in the gym...what ever kind of games get brought will be played.
I am in a Scrabble mood!

Happy New Year!!!

Nothing much for us really, maybe once every 5 or so years we go to a party but more often than not it's just another night ..... boring huh?
