'appy ndew yeahr

Well,it was inevitable. When Alicia arrived,she spent the first several days of her visit sick. Then Tim arrived, and within a day he too was feeling icky. They've now recovered and have returned to their respective homes on the cold east coast.

We got ready for our big night out for new years eve... A little dinner, maybe a club with some dancing and then watching the fireworks at midnight! But alas, halfway through dinner, Michael got cold, clammy, achy, stuffy.... The dreaded goo had struck. Here it is almost 10pm on nye and we're back home, watching (the horrible) Dick Clark's Rockin' Eve. we can hear fireworks going off in the neighborhoods and parties all around us (they are legal here And it's a lot like 4th of July).

oh well. Seen one new year....

Happy - and healthy - 2012 to you all.

  1. Went up to Shannon and Greg's for NYE. He hosted a combined NYE and Birthday Party (BD 1/1/70). Left before midnight and left the youngsters make fools of themselves. Greg made an erupting meatloaf volcano out of 5 lbs. of assorted meats. Shannon gagged. Don't ask. We had to pass on the Swain's NYE party, but hopefully next year we will make it there. Hope you avoided the bug. Great talking to you. Hugs
