[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 571453, member: 4264"] We watched the town fireworks from our picture window. Our new place is in the perfect spot. The kitchen table is groaning with finger foods. We just finished watching a movie and are now watching Rocking New Year's Eve (sans Dick Clark sadly). Next we will watch Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin, always good for a few laughs and some good music. We have party hats, noise makers and will do a midnight toast. We are all freshly showered and in matching flannel pj's. We will probably play a board game while we watch the new years programming up until the countdown. I'm refusing to dwell on the fact that due to S/O's recent job loss, we had to postpone what tonight would have been our wedding that I've been planning for a year. Nor are we all toasty in the sun on the beach in Cuba. Instead we are celebrating the end of this year that brought so many low points, but thankfully also many high points. And we are celebrating 8 years for S/O and I tonight. No anniversary gifts, no wedding (next year *knock on wood*). But a love that takes the sting out of waiting another year. I am feeling very at peace. easy child is laughing and smiling and festive, after a very tough year. That makes my heart happy. My Matt phoned earlier and was more upbeat than a few days ago when he was struggling. He is having a nice evening tonight, and heads out in a few days for his first jaunt for work to the Northwest Territories. He will also have some time off to take a few days to Alaska, and he is super excited. He promised to take a photo for me of him standing directly at the north pole with the sign. My mom heart is happy. Happy new year everyone, may 2013 be wonderful for you all! [/QUOTE]
