New Year’s Eve 2007

Not doing much, tonight. It’s just a beautiful day, today. Sunny and 74 degrees. So maybe we’ll sit up on the roof and watch whatever happens below. Maybe there will be fireworks! That would be so cool.

I remember when we were little and we got to stay up until midnight. I’ll bet that there were lots of times that we actually didn’t make it until midnight! But it was SO exciting,anyway! Now it’s a struggle to make it past 10 p.m.! Jack likes to watch the Boston Pops New Year’s Eve concert so maybe we’ll do that, too. Champagne gives me a headache so there won’t be any bubbly.

Who knows what 2008 will bring. I’m going to make some resolutions and really, really try to keep them. One of them is to follow the Like In, Like Out principle. It works like this: if a new item comes into the house you have to make sure something similar goes out either to the recycling center, Goodwill, to a friend, or if necessary, to the dump. I don’t remember where I learned that but it’s sensible.
