What Are You Doing For New Year’s Eve?

New Year’s Eve. The last holiday of the season. What are you doing?

Although I have not solidified any plans for New Year’s Eve. If I know, like I know, I will be at home with my family waiting for the ball to drop and then sleep shortly afterward, if not before.

I am sure there is no shortage of things to do in the city for New Year’s Eve. However, in this season of my life, I do not have the desire or the stamina to “party” like it’s 1999. With the fear of sounding old, I am just thankful to be alive.

Sure, I would love to be getting ALL dolled up, hitting the town, and painting it red, ALL night long…. Who am I kidding! The thought alone makes me tired. I have been waiting to be old my whole life. And not that 40 + is old, but the crackles, hip pains, and need for a daily rest time, tells me it’s not young either. We celebrated my brother’s birthday with a Cowboys football watch party a couple weeks ago, and every one was shocked I was there past 10:30p. And on a school night.

I am sure we will make New Year’s Eve a game night: Uno and video games.  The meal will be easy; everyone in the house is a fan of nachos or maybe a crab boil.  For dessert, homemade cookies. And for me, cheddar popcorn. This sounds like a plan!

Although this fourth quarter has been very busy and taxing for me, as with most people, it has also been filled with family, building, bonding, and love. A good foundation for anything, if you ask me.

Cheers to new beginnings!

BTW:  Happy New Year!! Wishing Love Peace and Soul to you and yours, in the new year ahead!!!

I want to know what you will be doing for New Year’s Eve: partying, watch night, relaxing at home?  What are your plans?
