What are your New Years plans?
Re: What are your New Years plans?
If the storm predictions are right...I'll really be okay with it!

On NYE we get a ton of junk food and a pizza and watch movies all night. We've done this every year since we met.
New Years Day we are supposed to go to my ILs for dinner and games with them and some family friends. If the storm comes we won't be going though. I am kinda excited about another storm, I love them on the weekends.
my read shelf:
The hubs got NYE off from work, and we're going to sleep in and then go out for Italian some place nice for dinner.
New Years day I'm supposed to run a 5K race that morning (praying that the storm doesn't last that long and cause some major issues), and then we're coming home, playing our annual New Years game of Scrabble and doing some fondue and drinking wine the rest of the day. Looking into going to a movie that night.
DH and I both had to work all Christmas weekend at our respective hospitals (and DH's bday is Christmas day), so we're really looking forward to some quality time and actual holiday plans for once where we don't have to work!

Scratch that. My husband just informed me we'd been invited to a party at his friends' house, but he forgot to mention it to me. Looks like we'll be headed there, unless the weather is bad.

We're having about 10 people over at our place. I'm hoping the storm won't come, not sure who will show up if it does!
Not sure what we're doing New Years Day - probably just hanging out and watching movies.
we were invited to 2 different theme parties but with one of our dogs still on the mend and neither of us really feeling like hunting for costumes, we decided to just have a small group of people over at our place for games, Will and breakfast the following morning.
hopefully we can get some relaxing in there somewhere but we do also need to etch and paint the floor in the basement workout room and will be getting carpet installed down there. home stretch on the basement project!
Not sure yet. We are invited to a couple of gatherings (two friends that I haven't seen in ages and would LOVE to see! Difficult choice . . .) but DH might have a band rehearsal so that would rule doing much of anything. If he did have a rehearsal, he would be home before midnight - but late enough to rule out doing anything. And then there is the weather . . . but I think this forecast will be all bark and no bite.
All that might not matter anyhow as I have been feeling like crap - dh too - and we both think we may be coming down with a post-holiday bug. Grrrrrreat. Of course, if my cat would just let me get one night of decent sleep instead of punishing me (yes, only me, DH sleeps through his antics) for taking him with us to my father's for Christmas, then maybe I could tell if this painful exhaustion I'm feeling is due to lack of sleep or something else.
