1. Sure, around my house, maybe home alone, may open a bottle of something.

[MyOwnPeace]

2. I'm in on the 'what day is it' vote.......

honestly, not working and trying to avoid 'groups' makes it difficult to actually keep track! I used to know it was SUNDAY because the 'newspaper' (remember those?) was fatter, but, like so many other things, they don't deliver any more!

But hey, Happy New Year!!!!!

[Scrivener7]

3. Family dinner and then zoom with the family afar, then early night!

My favorite kind of holiday.

[Hoyt]

5. Barring any catastrophe, I certainly hope to be around to mark the New Year.

I might even be on DU.

6. Probably up till 11:00 to see Anderson get hammered again.....🤣 😂 🤣

I love Anderson Cooper on New Year’s…..love him everyday, but on New Years he’s the best…..

[highplainsdem]

20. Love watching him giggle.

[Tetrachloride]

8. Staying home.

i have what i need.

[Sherman A1]

10. It will be midnight somewhere when I hit the sack and that will be very early.

Never found New Year's to be much of a holiday worth celebrating.

[Arkansas Granny]

11. I'm spending the evening home alone and I'll be in bed

long before midnight. I haven't gone out for New Years Eve in many years.

[2naSalit]

12. Maybe...

If I don't fall asleep before that.

[chillfactor]

13. Will be reading mysteries...

and drinking Bloody Mary's. Not interested in watching ball drop.....boring.

[BlackSkimmer]

14. I always think I'll stay up, but usually fall asleep.

Then I wake to hearing the celebrations if I leave the tv on.

I was a partier back in the day, but those days are gone lol.

[Totally Tunsie]

15. Not champagne, but a bottle of Prosecco.

Planning a cozy night clearing out videos saved to my DVR.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!

[electric_blue68]

16. Not champagne, but Hagan Daz Chocolate Brownie Ice Cream w Irish Cream...

Some of that.
Also have some Hgn Dz Vanilla w Choc truffles and Bourbon to finish.
I will add pieces of Pepperidg Farm Pirouette chocolate fudge rolls to both.

For NYD I'll have HGNDZ Choc choc chip ice cream with same pirouetts, plus slivered almonds.

Mealwise will order a small white pizza with silvered onions from a nice independent Pizza store across the street.

For midnight snack I suddenly thought of Deviled Ham on Ritz crackers. We had that as part of NY Eve snacks as a kid.

Maybe on Sunday I'll finally cook dryish scrambled eggs!
I need to get salt, and pepper. Garlic powder. Maybe cheddar cheese. We'll see. 👍🙂

Oh, I am a NYC'r. Of course, I'll watch the ball drop. 👍😁

HAPPY NEW YEAR Everyone! 🎉🎉🎉

[Donkees]

17. Fireworks ensure everyone will be awake at midnight ...

... and stay awake until they run out of noise.

[Paladin]

18. Yeah, welcome to my neighborhood.

Hope TCM has some decent flicks to watch, from about 8:00 tonight to 4:00 AM tomorrow.

[highplainsdem]

21. How about 6 hours of a great miniseries on Prime Video, if you have

Amazon Prime?

22. I may give it a shot. Thanks. (nt)

23. We will be celebrating with about 20 recent acquaintances from our canceled conference

Our Renaissance Weekend was canceled as we were leaving for the airport in Düsseldorf on Sunday. We said what the hell, we will go anyway, and have a relaxing week in Charleston, South Carolina. As it turned out, we weren't alone. People came from North Carolina, but also as far away as San Francisco.

So, we organized a big dinner, and some champagne (I don't drink alcohol, but I'm the only one), and I have a guitar here, so at midnight, we'll sing some songs we usually do. Paul Simon, Beatles, Sloop John B, songs that a 12 string guitar goes well with. Then chill out for some walks along the waterfront on January 1, like we always do, and then back to the real world. Florida, New York, Washington, etc. By February, I should be back in Germany. My wife will leave from New York well before me.

24. I'll stay up until midnight, then probably

go right to bed. Maybe have a glass of champagne with my husband beforehand.

[Marthe48]

25. I'll stay up, but no champagne

Maybe vodka and cranberry juice. Oh hell, just vodka. lol

Happy New Year, DU! Love you all
