indeed. my afore mentioned friend enjoys bacon very much. and when he had to have a heart valve replaced he insisted on getting one from a

'well, don't you see, i will be the centre of attention in the synagogue' he said

So, he wanted to hog the limelight?

I think I like the new year so far... Here's to 2010.

May it not suck.

*Waves and hugs while your eyes are still open *

*Goes back to read*

Hopefully I'll have more time for hootoo this year. I've missed you all.

Nice to see you here...

We spent xmas at the nursing-home-castle. My mother enjoyed it, and that was the main goal. My youngest son thinks xmas is ridiculous and watch films all day with a friend. I think non-oregano is involved.

My youngest daughter volunteered for the nearby 'department' of Salvation Army and made and served food for the homeless. Somewhere along the line Israelians and burnt almonds were involved.

Our New Year's eve was very quiet indeed. Son M. went to bed at 17:00 (he always turns night into day and vice versa) and sig. S and I paused a film at 23.55 to wish each other a much better year - clinking glasses of water and orange juice.

Today he'll stop smoking as usual, so I'll call on my patience and benevolence.

I like that - he'll stop smoking *as usual*. I used to be like that, but eventually I stopped properly. It took a few years.

My new year's celebrations happened at my friend N's house. It was her birthday on 31 December. Then just after midnight I called my mother as it's her birthday on 1 January. Sometime in between I drank some sparkling . Then I slept a lot.

...I like the in between bit . Tanzer's birthday is also at the 31th, I discovered on Facebook. (Never trust anyone above 30)

Oh yes, I knew that - and completely forgot... I must contact Tanzen sometime this weekend. I wonder when we'll meet again, and where.

When you meet - have a laugh for me.

Happy New Year!

New Year's eve was a calm event in the Lair. Me, princess, some oysters and a lobster.

Today it's snowing profusely so I think I'll stay indoors. My balcony is covered with snow almost all the way up the railings. It must be close to a meter of snow out there.

i spent new years eve on top of one of the most posh apartment buildings in town and watched both and gazillions of s from the roof top

In the early evening we went to bring the m-i-l some food as she had cancelled our evening together due to not feeling well.

I then spent a quiet evening at the PC talking to my friends, clinked a glass of with my husband at midnight and went to bed when the noise of the fireworks ceased.

Today's a bit of an anticlimax, as 2 January always is. I have nothing I must do, plenty of things I could do, and I can't decide what. I think this means I'll go for the default option - lie on couch, read a book, move from time to time to get food.

Or I could head out and visit a museum or something.

*thinks*

Nope.

thank bob there is a sunday to wash down the 2. january before i have to return to w*rk

I'm grateful for that too. Reality resumes on Monday and I'm not looking forward to it.

neither am i

On the bright side, it's payday on Thursday. If they keep giving me money, I'll keep turning up at the office five days a week...

Thursday is hopefully back to w*rk for me. I've not been there since the end of October so there are almost 2½ months w*rk piled up for me...

But my boss doesn't seem to have realised that there should be good to be two persons doing my job.
