New Year's Eve Plans

I trust everyone had a wonderful holiday so far. Two more to go for many of us…New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. Do you have any plans yet? I do…

I’m staying home with my wonderful husband and terrific daughters, and we are all going to knit and crochet. I even got my husband to agree to try. Now, he did say this at 3am under the influence of Benadryl, but I’m holding him to it.

Roundabout where I live, there aren’t many “traditional” things a family can do together to ring in the New Year; or perhaps I should rather say, there aren’t many places a family can go to do so. Midnight is not usually a child-friendly time.

So, we decided to spend this New Year’s Eve with our family at home. I hope that doesn’t mean I’m stodgy, but if it does, well, I’ll be a curmudgeon for those two days.

We’re going to work on, and with any luck complete, a throw. If it’s tiny, then it will work for my daughters’ Barbie dolls. If it’s not, then maybe it will be a usable item. No matter what, it will be something to keep, to cherish, and to fondly remember for the rest of our lives.

That’s more than I can say for some past New Years’ Eve celebrations where I don’t remember a thing—except for the headache the next day.

See how it went.
