If you’re like me your New Year’s Eve went something like this –
Cook dinner, eat, do dishes and clean up kitchen.
Wash face, brush teeth, change into pajamas with plans of watching a movie and ringing in the New Year with spouse and a nice bottle of wine.
Have one glass of wine, watch half the movie, fall asleep.

Oh, how times change.
We were going to meet two other couples for a New Year’s Day boozy brunch but I got a text yesterday morning saying a good friend was in the hospital with bacterial pneumonia that had spread to her bloodstream.
.

So off to the hospital we went. With New Year’s themed flowers.
Thankfully she’s on the mend, getting strong IV antibiotics and breathing more easily.
We spent a few hours cheering her up and then laughed at the sticker on the car next to us in the parking lot.

Hope your New Year’s Eve and Day were more fun than ours.

However you chose to celebrate.

Hey, I stripped down completely naked, too. Kinda hard not to when taking a shower.
I did actually stay up until midnight – first time in years. Otherwise, ours was pretty low key, too. Hope your friend recovers fully.

For the thoughts of my friend, not the you naked in the shower image.

Sorry about your friend.
In Arizona, we have gone 160 days in a row without rain. Not a good time to be shooting off fireworks in the desert – but yeah, the idiots still do.

Glad to hear your friend is on the mend. I can’t remember the last time we did anything other than watch old movies on NYE. 😊

We usually go out for dinner and drinks but I just didn’t feel like it this year.

Oh my, I wish your friend a very speedy recovery. And I am in total agreement with how you spent your New Year’s Eve. I was in my PJ’s with Cape Cod in hand along with some nibbles (charcutier board) and binge watching the BBC series Sherlock. Since I already binge watched the American series Elementary it only seemed right I watch and compare….lol.

That sticker is hilarious, as is the meme of doing stuff after 9 PM. Our NYE was much like yours, except that my husband did the cooking and my son did the dishes. #winning Hope your friend continues to improve–but how can she not, with a good buddy, laughs, and flowers?

Our “prime time” hours have slowly evolved, and are now basically 6-9 PM. December 31st did not alter that. Amazing thing, when we woke up the next morning, it was already January 1st! It did not require us to stay up and be a welcoming party! Yup. We just took down the old calendar on our refrigerator, put up a new one, and voila, it was done.

Funny how that works. Party or no… Father Time marches on. Usually across my face.

Oh my. Hoping your friend is in recovery mode now. I’ve heard of a lot of cases of pneumonia going around; weird.
I love being at home, no matter if it’s a holiday or not. 🙂
