Do You Bother to Stay Awake for New Years?
« on: January 01, 2020, 06:29:04 am »
New Years used to be such a big deal to me and I wouldn't think of not planning on going somewhere and celebrating.  Boy, do things change as you get older!  Now I don't want to be anywhere but home or at a small gathering nearby.  I usually don't even stay awake all the way to midnight anymore.  My preference is to spend New Years at home in my PJs!

Midnight is early for me.  I rarely go to bed before midnight anyway.

I went to bed at 11:30 last night. My husband and I planned to pop a bottle of Asti at midnight, but neither of us could stay awake any longer. We're getting old! LoL!  :party:

No, I didn't bother because it isn't cause for celebration. Its just another year and its not like it won't come to pass.

I use to set up and watch the ball drop.  Don't any more.  Don't really care anything about staying up.

I was asleep by 9:30. It just isn't a very big deal to me these days.

My husband and I always did but after he became ill and subsequently passed I don't bother. I hope for a better year and then go to sleep.

My spouse was already out like a light but I stayed away until about 1 because we have a dog that can't stand fireworks and they always blow them off for the new year.

We went out to a small gathering with friends. It was a good low-key occasion.

When I was younger there was no way we didn’t go to a party and stay out almost all night.  Now, we watched the ball drop in our home, and went to bed by 12:10. Big party people, lol
