Happy New Year everyone. I’ve has an emotionally stressful week followed by a long drive home today, yet Dh still seemed to think I needed to be woken up to ring in the new year. Now I’m going to be awake for awhile.
I was hoping that Dh and B would have taken stuff down while I was away, but no. Not looking forward to doing that.
That sounds really good. I am not a fan of banana either.
I guess my Dh was in bowl heaven while I was gone. No one here to complain about how much football he watched.
I think the last time we were out for NYE was when we welcomed 2016 at Disney World.
What an annoying way to start the year. So sorry this happened.
I think we will have a National day of mourning. I was really hoping she would make it to 100.
Thank you all for your kind words about my mother’s money situation. I have no idea what is going to happen over the next couple of weeks. I know that we will not actually have our aunt arrested if she fails to return the money. My mom will never forgive us if we send her sister to jail. I just hope we can scare her enough into returning whatever she had left.
It`s been a horrible end to the year for you, and yes, incredibly stressful with what you`ve had to deal with. I hope your aunt doesn`t realise you won`t pursue this to the end and does the right thing, but at least she won`t get anymore.
Hope you can take the weekend to wind down a little before going back to work, and yes, taking down the trees and decorations is not fun!!
That dessert is very good, very simple though but everyone loves it and looks quite nice with some shaved chocolate on top of the cream too.....not diet frendly at all!!
Happy New Year to you too Robbie.......
Well, once an early riser, always an early riser. Got to bed around 2ish, barely heard any fireworks in the distance from us this time which is unusual in itself. BUt, woke as usual around 5.30. I spent years working early shift through choice and you do get conditioned......nothing unusual there, many folks are the same. Would love to have one or two mornings where I slept till 7 or 8......ain`t going to happen I guess.
Brunch it is today, we have a household of early risers here, Kyle has always been regimented and up with the larks too, but none of us like to eat too early. We do like a bucks fizz for breakfast on Christmas, but never do that on New Years Day. Have a lovely selection to put out for us and will make pancakes on request if anyone wishes.
Dinner is around 4ish today I believe, that time suited everyone. Friends that are coming, this is their first holiday season with none of their kids here, so wanted them to come here although they won`t stay late as they have horses and even though they get looked after, they like to check on them too. Horses are like the largest puppies in the world to them. They`re not bringing their dogs either so a few hours is the max they`ll stay.
Never make new years resolutions, but have decided to make some changes this year to a few things/people.........in a positive way
So, after that babble....time for tea. And although it`s warm out there for the time of year, it is blowing a hoolie........🌬
Happy Saturday and New Years Day........
