I don't have any [/quote] I'd be honored and happy to be your uncle. We may not get to visit that often, but I'll send a birthday present if you mom lets me know what's on your list.

FutureSister2009 Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I am going out to lunch with a friend I don't see very often. We finally have time to get together and catch up. That's the biggest thing I'm doing. I don't really care about New Year's that much. It's exciting but I just don't get into it that much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandelynmarie Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 [quote name='Marie-Therese' timestamp='1325200226' post='2359620'] I'll be at work in the ER. On New Year's Day, I will be at work in the ER. Notice a trend here? [/quote] I'll be working too. At 5 minutes til midnight, whoever is available gathers up in the ER. We bring noise makers & have plastic wine glasses of sparkling grape juice. We watch the ball drop, yell "Happy New Year!", down the juice & get back to business. Usually the fun really begins around 1am with all sorts of pholks coming in. Although some years it's fairly quiet until later in the morning. The ER does have an amesome New Year's buffet, however.

Luigi Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 [quote name='Luigi' timestamp='1325221501' post='2359832'] Spending the evening with a seven-year-old niece and a four-year-old nephew while their parents go out carousing. We'll make a poster starring "2012" & a picture of each of them, which we'll hang in the window for Mom & Dad to see when they get home. Then we'll watch a movie (title yet to be selected, but it may involve either Beverly Hills chihuahuas or animated characters of some sort) while we eat Cracker Jacks and M&Ms. At 10 p.m., I'll tell them it's midnight*, we'll holler "Happy New Year" and blow noise makers. Then they'll go to bed. *In another thread - I think it was about Santa Claus - I said I didn't understand why we lie to children so frequently. But in this particular case, I understand perfectly, and I don't consider it a sin to do so. [/quote] Well, the movies were "Cat in the Hat" with Mike Myers and two episodes of the Nipper series. When the movies, Cracker Jacks, and M & M's were done, it was 9:17 p.m. The kiddos were walking zombies by then, but committed to 'staying up until midnight.' I told them it was midnight, we counted down and hollered Happy New Year. They trudged into their bedrooms... I saw the seven-year-old staring at her clock... I asked her what was up... she said, "I don't know what what midnight looks like on this clock"... but she went to bed - she was wiped out. This morning I heard her tell her dad that she's not sure she stayed up until midnight - it wasn't even 10 o'clock when she went to bed - but she didn't complain about getting cheated or anything. If I do this with them again next year, I'm going to have to reset all the clocks in the house, because by then she'll be able to tell time well enough that I won't be able to pull the wool over her eyes!
