What I'm Doing New Year's Eve




I'll be reviewing the past year's
people, places, and events --


Doing a little ritual to
say farewell to the year --



Maybe I'll put the finishing touches
on the last of my holiday baking --


HRH the Cat will be doing
her own special sign-off 
on the year as well --

Enjoy the evening, Debra. I hope 2026 is a great year for you!

That gingerbread house is perfect.

Oh, I must say, HRH knows exactly what to do with 2025. It's been one very sucky year.
Have a wonderful evening. Happy 2026.

I built a Suck Box and put everything sucky on slips of paper inside it. New Years Eve, we burned it.

We're going to a friend's for dinner, but I suspect we'll be home long before midnight.

Excellent memes. Princess and I will be in our jammies watching Wicked: For Good.

Hi Debra, Happy New Year! I don't have time now to think of anything clever, so wait for some extra-bad puns sometime next year, when you least expect it.

I love knowing I have such a sister-soul in you, Debra. Our humor, our love of profanity and the absurd is definitely shared.
Burnin' down the house...put on your sunglasses.

RedPat said...

We will be bundled up on the couch like that kitty. Happy New Year, Debra!

DB Stewart said...

Burning sage, lol. Thank you for all the laughs this year and for your thoughtful comments. They treat my life.

Mistress Maddie said...

I think it would take two very large extra long Sage sticks to cleanse this year!

A Happy New Year to you Debs.🍸🎊🎆🎉🎇

Jackie McGuinness said...

We'll be much the same as Rade! But no heated blankets, it gets too warm here. I love that we've met up this year, I also feel like we're sister souls!
I'm finally over the jetlag and now have a runny nose!
Happy New Year!

Dear Debra, I love ❤️ the cats 🐈 😻 🐈‍⬛️
Happy New Year to you, dear friend.

Sandy said...

Some good ones, but my favorite is burning sage. Let's hope we need less sage this time next year. Surely the stuff going on will calm down? Oh I hope, but am not holding my breathe......given the state of things. Trying to be hopeful though. Happy New Years to you.

Mary Kirkland said...

Happy New Year, Let's hope 2026 is a good one.
