Happy new year, you wonderful flist, you! *Hugs tightly* It's just about ten minutes to midnight... guess I better wake Peter up or he'll sleep through it and I'll have nobody to kiss. Kidlet is at a party and we have had a marvelous time here all by ourselves *wink* *wink*. We polished off a bottle of wine, had a fire in the fireplace, ate a late supper of homemade soup and biscuits (the savory kind), played lots of Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell on the CD player, and, well, the rest is too personal even for LJ but there was a slow-dance wearing nothing but my jewelry involved...

A pretty good end to a tired old year; a pretty good start to a bright, shiny new one. May it be good to all of us! *Toasts*

Happy New Year to you, Bodhi! I hope all your fondest wishes come true for you. I see a trip to Vermont and/or Quebec coming up this year...

Ooh, your NYE sounds a LOT more exciting than mine! Mine consisted of copious quantities of gin and the IT Crowd marathon on TV. But I was happy in my way.

Glad you had a wonderful evening; I hope 2008 is all that you'd wish it to be and, because I went to the effort of making it, I'll post this


Message for you (as I have for everyone else *G*).
Sending the love vibes...

You had a new year's that marvelous, and still managed to come wish us Happy New Year? WOW. :)

With a start as grand as that, I know your year will be full of zest. Cheers!

*toasts with the morning cuppa*

Meeting you in 2007 was one of the highlights of my year. You just rock, m'dear. *smooch* I wish you and your beautiful family a Wonderful & Happy New Year!

there was a slow-dance wearing nothing but my jewelry involved...

I do hope Peter looked good in your jewelry...

Happy New Year, Sally! ::hugs tightly:: Yep, the New Year is all bright and shiny. Give it a week and it'll need polishing. Let's hope the shine keeps going for all of us though. :oD

Thanks, Gilly, and *sending the love vibes* to you, too! It was actually a pretty quiet evening, and the first New Year's Eve we've had alone in 15 years (since Kidlet was born, in short), so it merited a bit of twosome celebration. Amazing how one bottle of wine can make you feel, though -- probably almost as good as some good gin!

Here's hoping 2008 will be a great year for you. *Hugs*

Heh, that Obsession wine will do it every time...

Hope this will be a fabulous year for you! *Hugs*

Hee, this "grown-up" New Year's Eve was a long time coming -- after *many* years spent with Kidlet watching the Sesame Street New Year's Eve video. Still, the wonderful wine effect only lasts so long... hence the post!

I *do* hope it will be a good new year. *Raises current cup of water*

LOL!!! Silly... Peter was wearing his watch; *I* was wearing my jewelry... *snicker* Yeah, I'm joking with you.

Oh honey, meeting you was one of *my* big highlights too. So much so that I can't really think of going to Moonridge again without you there! And I wish we lived a lot closer *pouts*. You more than rock -- you've been a life-saver a couple of times in the mom-world. I hope the new year is a shiny one for you and yours, too.

Heh! Too right... I think it needs a touch-up already.

*Hugs tightly* I do hope it will be a nice new year for you, and that a lot of good things happen! And I love your Big Ben New Year icon -- nice.

*Hugs and love back* You too, sweetie -- I hope this will be a wonderful, happy year for you and your dear, dear family.
