I met my husband 32 years ago on New Year's eve. We celebrated in quiet last night and today. A nice lunch, nice drive, good wine, arm in arm. That's all that matters, who you spend time with now and later

So everyone had a wonderful bringing in of the New Year. ... That's terrific. Chris ...you sound wonderful..seems you are doing better and I am so happy for you. Jayne....I like slot machines and poker machines but tend to stay away except maybe once a year. Ialso don't have it in me to keep feeding it 20's and nothing comingout. Although I put a $20 in ONCE and won $1400 which was great.

I don't remember anything from the party at ADMIN's either......must have eaten too many of Grandma's yummy rumballs.

We went to My Sons House, had Chili for Dinner, and I Watched T.V. while They Played Board Games! Just My Kids and Their Spouses, My Sister-in-Law, and Ellen. First Dry New Years, No Booze!!

Never have been a drinker, If I can taste alcohol (rum,Whisky etc) I don't want it. LOL I do like Baily's, ice cream drinks( grasshoppers) and sweet drinks. One is my limit...... Once or twice a year.

RNvic and I shared a small bottle (very small) of California wine she brought to my son's this fall. It was very good. Decaf coffee, unsweetened iced tea,Cranberry juice,7-up, ginger ale are my drinks of choice.

Tuffy... I am with you on the drinking..if I can taste the alcohol I don't want it. I like the same types that you like and 1-2 a year or less is good enough for me. Until 2005, I always worked new years eve, day, christmas eve and day to give as many of my nurses off as possible... it was my gift to them... I sure do miss it as I know many of you do also..

I spent the day preparing Chinese dishes along with my neighbour, and then we got out a bottle of bubbly, and a white wine and set up the table at her house.....all sat down and enjoyed the friendship and watching the snow come down out the french doors. Really nice. We made it to about 11:30 PM, and then I headed off home and listened to the fire works doing their best at trying to keep me awake. Then I gave up, poured another glass of wine...sat and watched Animal Cops...which was recorded from several days ago. I don't think that I actually went to sleep until about 4 AM. Spent New Years day reading and listening to music. Nice. I need a honey though, I am sure I would enjoy it much better. Maybe the New Year will be generous to me. My fortune cookie said I would travel to a place far, far away...so maybe I am heading back to England????

Tuffy and Red...I don't drink at all anymore. Had a really bad reaction to a glass of wine about 2 years ago and fell much safer not touching it at all.....It was either Cymbalta or Neurontin because I had just started both. Used to love a good happy hour with old friends, a couple of beers and a few smokes......now I'm happy with a good cup of tea and my flannel pj's.


Bag...I'm going to start praying for a companion for you.

coffee and flannels will do it for me.......I love my flannels
