I Hate New Year's

I know that we are supposed to look forward to the promise of the new year, but it is kinda hard. Seems like it is always bitterly cold on NYE, and going out to celebrate isn't particularly appealing. On a sillier note, I usually make my standard New Year's resolution - not to make and New Year's resolutions!
 
Wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing?

Earlier today, I feel that I was rather dissociated. It felt like I was falling into my own head like I usually do but then I started watching videos online and I've been feeling better since then.

I'm not really all that bothered by the fireworks outside either. This is such a change from what I am used to during this time of year.
 
Out here on the left coast we are winding down towards bed. We had a celebratory soda with dinner because, hey-why not.

Woo hoo? A new year sounds pretty good even if NYE isn't as good.
 
Hee- one of the things I'm hearing is a lot of us kind of being apologetic for not going out and drinking until we vomit on someone's shoe. When my husband and I met, we were SO relieved to get that whole subject outa the way, 'What we consider a good time', hee. It transpires we'd BOTH had incredibly awful plus extensive experiences with drunks/bars/addicts/any amount of vomit, so WOW, how cool to know we'd never, ever feel obligated on any level to go DO that again. My idea of h*ll.

Junebug, always carry a good, long hatpin, like they had in the old days. I have like 6, hee. Those antiques are decorative, looks like you're just wearing a pretty lapel pin. I've never had to use one, but make me feel safer, go figure. Bet one would stop a schmuck pretty darn quickly, applied to the ribs. OR elsewhere.
