I wish you all a very Happy, Healthy, Successful and Safe New Year. Hope all of your wishes come true this year and beyond.
My only wish for the year 2009 is that it be more peaceful and prosperous than 2008.
This year we had no extravagant celebrations, just watched the ball drop in Times Square (on TV).
How about you?
Do you like to stay at home on New Year’s or are you the type who absolutely has to be out of the house this day?
We stayed home and were sound asleep by 11:00 :-)
It was a lousy, cold night with high winds and snow here. We don’t like being on the roads with drunks anyway so it’s hard to get us out even without bad weather; that storm made it a definite “stay home” night.

@Betshopboy: Thanks. happy new year to you all too
@Tony: It was cold and windy here too but I agree with you, I can’t stand rowdy crowds either and there are too many around New Year’s! Oh so you guys don’t watch the ball drop either? now that’s a must for us if nothing else :)

Happy New Year Pearl, and everyone else reading this.
Was relaxing at home this year, but there no specific tradition to follow in my case. We just do whatever the mood suggests on the day. Sometimes that leads to quieter eves like this one and sometimes more public celebrations. Makes for an interesting variety of memories.
Wishing you a great year ahead!

Same here Pearl, just a quiet celebration at home, woke the kids, 4 and 7, up at midnight and then everyone back to bed. Lots of good food today, and a little bit of vacation for the weekend.
I hope you and your family have a wonderful year Pearl!

@Matt: thank you so much Matt.. wishing you the same
@Mig: check your email hon.. I hope to write more too and Im not sure if you go on twitter, my only resolution this year is to stop worrying and being happy more often, paint more and just be present in the moment :)
