So I could do a whole post on resolutions but that would to easy and I never keep resolutions so there you have it. No I will just say that on this night of what we like to call “amateurs” we will be at home all toasty and warm and spending this night together as a family. We have received invitations to attend parties but we just aren’t the New Year’s Eve partying type.
We will be eating soup and appetizers, sipping some champagne and apple juice and welcoming in the new year in our own recluse style and I couldn’t be happier.
So Happy New Year to all of my readers (family, friends and the like) may this be a good year for you and your family. We feel here in our house that it will be a trying year but with our heads held high we look forward to ringing it in and just in case you need to know the words of Auld Lang Syne (which happens to be my current ring tone and makes me teary eyed every time), look no further:
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind ?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days o’ lang syne ?
- CHORUS:
- For auld lang syne, my jo,
- For auld lang syne,
- We’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet,
- For auld lang syne.
And surely ye’ll be your pint-stowp !
And surely I’ll be mine !
And we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
- CHORUS
We twa hae run about the braes,
And pu’d the gowans fine ;
But we’ve wander’d mony a weary foot,
Sin auld lang syne.
- CHORUS
We twa hae paidl’d i’ the burn,
Frae morning sun till dine ;
But seas between us braid hae roar’d
Sin auld lang syne.
- CHORUS
And there’s a hand, my trusty fiere !
And gie’s a hand o’ thine !
And we’ll tak a right gude-willy waught,
For auld lang syne.
- CHORUS
