I was determined not to count down last night. I put on Modern Family (love that show!) and disappeared into it, pointedly ignoring the clock, planning to emerge on the other side. I forgot about the fireworks. At the stroke of midnight, bangs and double booms and pops began and went on for a good [...]
With just one day to go before the New Year, I’m excited. The last 12 months have passed by far too quickly, but I think I’ve made the most of them. I don’t remember ever being bored, I love what I’m doing, and I am looking forward to what 2012 will bring. There have been [...]
Continuing in my tradition of New Year’s Eve posts, I steal a few quick minutes before dinner to tap out some thoughts. I hope Kaylin stays asleep for just that little bit longer.
The year has passed all too quickly. It doesn’t feel like New Year’s Eve, although I am excited to see what 2011 [...]
In December 2007, the boys, Sivin and I sat down to dinner and wrote predictions for ourselves and for each other. Without reading any of them, we put all the slips of paper into a box and we were supposed to open the box at the end of 2008 to see whether [...]
What do you say on the brink of a new decade? To say nothing seems a little remiss, somehow, yet to say anything feels inadequate. For the first time in three years, hubby and I will not be ringing in the New Year at home. I usually take some time to sort out my thoughts [...]
Ever since I received a 2010 diary at an event earlier this month, I’ve been rather excited about the new year. It’s become a newly-acquired habit of mine to think about/write down each December what I want to focus on in the new year ahead so I’ve been giving 2010 some thought. It could just [...]
It is the last 90 minutes of the year. The boys are totally occupied by the X-Box and I am happy for their company in my living room and the solitude their pastime affords me. People don’t realise it, but I like having the boys around. They make me feel less antisocial while still allowing [...]
So maybe going on Facebook wasn’t the most happening way to ring in the New Year, but it’s been a pretty good start all the same. G, C and J did manage some kind of a countdown in between Winning Eleven games, and considering four out of six of us that night were stricken [...]
I still can’t believe it’s already 2006. I’ve been meaning to blog about my New Year but each passing day has deemed it less significant and I’m now having second thoughts. Nevertheless, because I’m having a free moment in the office, and I have nothing particularly exciting to share, and I still really like seeing [...]
Less than six hours before we officially celebrate New Year’s Eve. In case it wasn’t blindingly obvious, I can’t wait for the long weekend. Interesting updates for the week (not that you might be interested) include:
1. My youngest sister has gotten a tattoo. She is the first in our family to have one. My [...]
