This New Years Eve 2011

Same here or worse

My fiance is a Chef, so he will be working.. We did book a cheap motel near his work, I was going to go down around 11pm, but even after watching fireworks, we'd then be cleaning up, heading for the motel, 2am the latest, then I'd have to catch a taxi home at 5.30am for my diabetic dog, then get them to wait maybe and go back to him to have breakfast at 10am...Pftttt too hard... He'll stay and I'll meet him at 8.30am for breakfast instead and stay home...

We are heading to Sydney for two days mid Jan, that will make up for it, sleep in yay...


Remembering all my party years now lols.. Lucky I can still party though

Our neighbors from across the street are coming over for dinner and drinks.
It'll be fun, but pretty low key.

Waiting to hear what our serious party people will be up to.

The President of the Company gave me a nice bottle of champagne. Now I can only handle one small glass of champagne or I get an awful headache.

We've got a bottle of Asti Spumante.
The Lovely Bride will at least have a sip of that.

Well, we have already heard from jcboy. He is the most serious party person on this forum!

We're in serious trouble, then.

I am but I have to be in bed by 9:30

I've had a very great 2011. Old friends, new friends, a partner that's not too shabby and a charming little five year old. I can only imagine that 2012 is even better.

I hope that 2012 will be even better for all of us. Happy New Year, jcboy!

Thank you, same to you honey, have a great 2012

This New Years Eve I made dinner reservations for the three of us. After that we’ll come home and watch a good movie with the puppies lying by our feet.

Make sure you take a long nap beforehand, and get some bubbly apple cider instead of champagne, so you'll be able to watch the whole movie.

That sounds like the sort of New Year's Eve we always have. Nice and peaceful and quiet and homey.

But not this year!

We're going to Las Vegas on Monday for 4 days! We land at 3:30, so we'll celebrate NYE there! This is SO out of character for us, we're laughing every time we think of it! It's a last minute trip. Which is also completely out of character. <lol>

Oh well can we not hear the Restauranters excitement, 4 days off and wow

Good for you...

Mostly I spend it alone, as D works not this year. We are going out for a 4 course meal, wine, music (can't dance with a broken rib) and fireworks, oh no the husky will freak

Can you believe the Aussie Govn want $40 an hr for every staff member working, how the heck why the heck would you open your restaurant on NYE.. Alas, I have a date

And, i must reflect on 2012............as we all will.............let 2013 be a peaceful, beautiful year for all.. Missy hang about another year please, Jet dying was enough...

Thank you.

Eva you’ll have a blast in Vegas!

For all those heading out to New Years parties, have a WONDERFUL time. Take a cab, get a ride or walk!

I can go on a ride with the police. I'd rather be home with my dog.

I hope you have a great time!!!!

i expect that this new years like so many in the last twenty or so years will consist of me watching some tv, reading and waking up to find the new year already about 6 hours old

We will be dancing our feet off at one of our favourite clubs. And tomorrow night we will be meeting friends at the Annual Hankover (they play Hank Williams tunes all night - groan). Going for the camaraderie, not the music, obviously. Should be fun.

I just may have to take that nap. I told a few friends of mine if they can’t get a ride or a taxi tonight they can call me and I’ll get out of bed and pick them up!
