Goodbye 2008!

I'm really not one for big New Year's shindigs. I'm a total homebody and too old to be very social past ten anyway. The past few years I've spent the evening at my parents' house with some cousins, my aunt and my kids. It's a nice excuse to hang out and eat really good food.

2008 has been sort of a meh year for me. No real highlights, no real lowlights. Very even keel. I'm not in so much of a hurry to see it go as I am to move on and get a so-called fresh start on stuff. My friend Michelle and I have declared that 2009 will be OUR year because we both deserve it for no better reason than we said so. I'm going to be 40 in March, so that alone is reason to direct everything toward me.

Now for a quick NYE poll post:

1. Do you go out on NYE?
2. Do you drink champagne on NYE?
3. Do you kiss someone at midnight?
4. What's your most memorable NYE?
5. Did you watch Dick Clark every NYE growing up?

I'm off to appear helpful and/or maternal for a bit. I'm sure I'll end up trolling on facebook and blogs later tonight. If you're around and bored, email me at kimmmah at gmail dot com (that's THREE m's in kimmmah for the email; the normal spelling will direct you to a kimmah that is not me. bitch took my gmail name) and perhaps we can chit chat.

Go enjoy what is left of 2008--the year that we did NOT elect Sarah Palin to national office, thankyoujesus.

1- Not usually - I'm home tonight while DH took the kids to a family oriented party at the church!
2- No - don't drink
3- Yes, DH if I am awake (not usually awake..)
4- Can't remember one
5- Yes - sure did! (he's pretty old, no?)

Welcome to the 40's ! Have fun with it! I have 3 friends close by who we are within 3 months of each other - we call ourselves the 40's club and enjoy it... even though we are not 40 anymore... a couple of years past!

Happy New Year Kimmmmmmah!

The highlight of my New Year's Eve was honestly my shoes. I bought a pair of F*** Me pumps in India for next to nothing. They are silver and strappy with rhinestones up the front. I felt like I had tierras on my feet! Kim, you knew me before I began to move away from practicality. Anyway, I LOVE these shoes!!!
