This year I will be home, and cozy on my couch. Years past I never really enjoyed the forced celebration at gatherings and dances, just for the sake of going out.
I’d rather be with a special someone and a glass or two of wine…
I’ve got tickets left this year but they are going fast! What are your plans to see in the New Year?

I am not going out. Maybe a friend will come if her visitors have gone home, if not I’m happy to watch TV & just chill.

It’s just another day and nothing to celebrate IMO.
I’m just glad to able to live it in comfort and not in the cold in some tattered tent in the rubble of my bombed out house.

I will probably do what I usually do on NYE, I will try to stay awake to watch the Sydney Harbour Fireworks at midnight, then the moment it is over - lights out - ZZZZzzzzzz
Edit: I mean watch as on TV, not live.

We are having a small party / get together with drinks, nibbles and food then planning to hike to a local high point and watch fireworks at midnight. It’s my new idea for a budget NYE that is slightly special. We used to spend a fortune on tickets for meals and dances before Covid.

In the distant past I enjoyed my NYE celebrations - now I am more likely to watch something on TV, have a glass or two of wine and then be in bed long before midnight!

Staying home with just a tot of whisky at midnight. It has been a busy Christmas and I have very much enjoyed having all the family around at various times. Even so, it will will be nice to have a bit of quiet time on New Year’s Eve

I guess it will be watch the fireworks on the telly, maybe have a drink at midnight and off to bed shortly after. I have never seen the point of doing anything more than that.

It appears most of us have had enough of celebrating and ringing in the New Year. Pleasant memories, laughter, fun, toasts to what was in store for us.
I know I will think back to younger days, and glad I did it then. Now, it’s enough to be thankful for friends I had, health, adventures and be content to watch fireworks on TV. Now, more about being toasty, than toasting.

Sad really. When someone is tired of celebrating another year then perhaps one is tired of life. Surely it is at the least a moment for reflection on what is good in one’s life? Another spin round the Sun.
Personally I have no time for new year resolutions they are definitely intended for the young, my only resolution is an ongoing one shared by just about everyone - to stay on this side of the grass for as long as possible and savour every minute of while I am.

I celebrate and reflect what is good in my life every day not just once a year.

But the New Year just brings it into focus and makes it special.

The absolute joy of watching a 55" 4K screen for another year is surely worth celebrating with fireworks?
