Christmas Countdown - 2014

[snowflake22]

I had a nice surprise this morning. I found an unopened Christmas CD that I forgot I had---choirs and orchestras. I listened to it on the way to work and felt like I was in my own personal Christmas bubble. So good!



I'll probably be in and out during the day, but anyway---have a safe and joyous New Year's Eve, and I hope everyone has a great 2015!

What a nice surprise~

Hope you & Mr. have a lovely NYE!

Good afternoon everyone, and Happy New Year's Eve too!

So, another year has passed (too quickly, I'd say) but since it has been far from good for me (except several exciting events), I'm really looking forward for it to end, so I could start everything all over again.

I still have to make my New Year's resolutions tonight. I have noticed the trend why so many people, including myself, fail to stick to their commitments. First, I've noticed they set too many goals and secondly, they don't make an action plan. At the end, it inevitably leads to failure and this feeling is very depressing, making people feel that they are weak, not worthy and are incapable of achieving something. As if the failure is their way of being.

So, this time I've decided not to make too many goals and create an action plan - the exact things I should do to achieve my goals. I will see how that goes. :]

Stacey, I hope that you and Adrian are staying strong. I continue thinking of you both.

Best wishes to everyone!

Happy New Year's Eve everyone.

It has been an eventful year for all of us with good and not so good things but we made it. We made it with grace and strength and we should all give ourselves a big pat on the back.

As we approach the new year I wish you all success, health, contentment, positivity and happiness.

Have a wonderful time as we celebrate the departure of 2014 and the arrival of a brand new year. Aren't we lucky to be able to welcome another year! I am grateful for this. We are truly blessed.

Courage and strength to all facing difficulties. Don't lose faith and never give up hope.

Much love, hugs and kisses

Happy New Year's Eve to all! It's been a tough year for my family, but we made it through. I hope everyone has a happy and a prosperous 2015, and that the year brings many wonderful suprises for you.

Happy New Year's eve everyone! Still finding it hard to believe another Christmas has come and gone! I'm pretty sure I will never be able to catch up on posts since Christmas eve but I'm hoping everyone is having a wonderful holiday season! We had a very nice Christmas here – it seemed very rushed! Always hopping – no time for relaxing! LOL My brother and sister-in-law were home for eight days – they left yesterday. always fun to hang out with them! Having Christmas Eve at my sisters house worked out well. We celebrated Christmas with Jim's family at his sisters on the 26th. We had brunch at our house with my family on the 27th – and we had supper at our house with my family on the 28th. Everyone who could make it went to my brothers house on the 29th for pizza – it was the last night my brother and sister-in-law were home from Cape Cod. We had to squeeze in one more party! LOL Two of our best friends were over last night – we had supper and exchanged gifts… It was very nice and fun! Tonight we are going to a private party at the Legion bar. Which reminds me – I still need to make my snack! have a wonderful New Year's eve day everyone!

And how could I forget… It's somedogs 1st birthday today:

Happy Birthday Gracie!!!

Good morning, Good day and well wishes! I hope everyone has a safe and sober New Years.

No big plans for me, Lisa and I are just going to spend a nice quiet evening tonight together at home, as far as I know, it's just going to be her and I there tonight. We're going to have some shrimp (cooked 3 different ways), smoked pepper salmon, cheese, sausages and a gambit of other treats for us tonight. I even bought some sparkling NA cran-apple and grape drink, from the grocery store. It fizzes like Champagne, but taste like fruit juice~

It will be a test for us both to see just how long we will be able to stay awake tonight with getting up before 5am every morning, it gets harder and harder as the week progresses, to keep my eyes open past 9:30/ 10:00 at night....:lol:

Enjoy your nice quiet night, Xmastidings!!!!!!

Sweet!!!! Sounds like a great way to spend the drive to work!!!!

Enjoy your New Year's Eve, MerryCarey!!!!!

Stay warm & have a great day, dear friend.

The snacks sound delicious!

Meant to post this photo and kept forgetting. This is Miley, one of Mum's cats. She is hugely spoilt as you can tell by her photo ....
