New Year’s Eve 2022

 

 

Years ago we would celebrate New Year’s Eve with a couple we’ve known forever. We’d drink a lot and eat a lot and just have fun. For awhile we would rent the most awful movie we could find and watch that. Mostly, though, we’d play games until midnight. Dominoes, Scattergories, Pictionary, Trivial Pursuit, Milles Borne, Boggle.

 

The last few years we haven’t done any of that because: grandchildren.

We usually have Lia from Christmas through New Year’s. And now our friends have a grandson and spend it with their son and family. I also think I’m getting a bit old to do a lot of partying until midnight. My party chops ain’t what they used to be.

 

So as the ball gets ready to drop we’ll probably sit back and relax with a cup of hot chocolate (with Kahlua in it!) and listen to Home Free sing the traditional song. Click on the video and then return to this page and sing along…Cheers! Happy New Year! God grant you and yours a blessed 2023!!

(Sorry about the stupid ads before the song starts…)

 

Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And days of auld lang syne?

 

For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup of kindness yet
For auld lang syne

 

And here the hand, my trusty friend

That gives a hand to thine

We'll take a cup of kindness yet
For auld lang syne
