Happy New Year!

We had a fun New Year, despite DD#1 coming down with the flu!!! I called the doctor today and he prescribed an anti-viral medicine that XH is driving to the next town to get from the only pharmacy that has it today!

But I digress.

New Years Eve my friend Darcy came out to hang with us, (very sad that we were her best option...) We hadn't seen Darcy for Christmas yet so we started out exchanging gifts.

LBCG and I bought Darcy a calendar or Dog Poos through the year. It was really funny. (I also got her a dutch oven for camping.)

Darcy gave me a book on how to be the Pope. (See Pope Post for explanation.)

Yes, I have my hair in a ponytail. I cleaned my house and put away Holiday decorations ALL DAY and did not take a shower. Yes, it looks terrible and it gave me a headache.
Darcy also gave me a manicure set that has her company logo on it...I post this only because I like the picture that DD#1 took.

We ordered Chinese food which was good and it was even better because I did not have to cook or clean up afterward. Darcy had stopped at K-Mart for New Years hats and horns but they were out; so Darcy bought Dora the Explorer party hats instead. They worked.

Darcy's dog Winnie liked the hat too!

We did a puzzle,

Played Scene It Disney (I DOMINATE that game...I was partners with DD#3 and at one point DD#1 said, "Mom, don't you think you should give Kennedy a chance to answer.")

I danced with Winnie,

And we rang in the New Year with Dick Clark, (what HAPPENED to him anyway??? I think he really died about three years ago and they are secretly computer generating him into the show.)

Ginger loved wearing her "bling" that she got as a gift from LeLo, AdRi, and Wink.

and was so tired today,

All in all it was a fun, entertaining and lovely evening. I am determined that 2006 is going to be a banner year for me! I'm very hopeful because this morning for the first time in a long time I didn't think about something awful the minute I awoke.

2005 was an odd year. I think that explains a lot. Bad things happen on odd years, really they do, think about it. But anyway that's all behind us now and we can look forward to a nice, even, good 2006 (and 2007 because despite its oddness, it's a seven and seven is always lucky.) So the way I see it, we have three GOOD years ahead of us. Yippee!

May the higher powers of your life bless and keep you all happy and healthy and safe this coming (three) years. Much love to my Hooker Ass Bitches and all my other blogging family and friends!

I heart you all; thank you for being there for me, supporting and caring about me through many miles and miles of bandwidth, everyday. You all rock my world. (Except you, Rich... if you're reading, then fuck off.) That's a story for another time, blogging friends. Today is a HAPPY Day!

Love, hugs and kisses for a Happy New (three) Years!

Yeah! You had a nice New Years! Dick Clark's agent should be frickin' fired: hearing him killed my buzz. Ginger wears her bling stunningly, of course. She's so sassy! Shout out from Wink, by the way.

Happy New Year RSG: here's to a great one and lots more fun.

xxoox,
LeLo, AdRi and Wink

Dick Clark had a stroke. I thought it was great to see him still up there- though they kept him off camera a lot.

Sorry I must be a buzz-kill, too... that explains my gerontology focus, huh?

Not sure who Rich is but if he is being mean to you, I'll cut him.

I love your view on odd and even years. I had never thought about that. 2005 wasn't too bad for us, but we did have a horrible car accident. Yea for 3 lucky years.
