Grey Goosed again

It's alllll good :)

Okay ONE MINUTE TO 2010.  Thank bloody gawd this decade is almost over.

So here sits me, had a couple drinks after children gone to bed...

WHOOPS...HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Let me kiss..oh...never mind... am all alone HA!!!  who cares!!!

I  cannot wait to read this tomorrow...drunken ramblings of single person home with children on New Year's Eve.

It doesn't entirely suck...just a little bit.

I truly, and honestly appreciate my friends and family.  Was home with boys today...made a special dinner and we watched a movie together.  Then the boys had a 'chocolate bath' and went to bed happy.  There were lots of hugs and kisses and it was all very nice.

Then I went into next room and thought ...hmpft...now what?

So here's me...New Year's Eve....  I should have a little drink...message my friends...yay!!!! (sad and utterly pathetic attempt at joy)...

Out comes pretty glass...in goes ice, Grey Goose...water...(hey don't knock it...at 5 calories a glass I can feel AND look great!!)... and okay..load of laundry..

shut up..am not only loser on planet doing laundry tonight...

HEY why not make a few recordings...

Now listen...one should never, ever sing when drinking.  One should also never blog when drinking...but hey...it's a special occasion.

Gawd you should hear morons on street honking their horns.  If my apartment didn't have lame safety windows that only open 2 inches, I'd lean waaaay out and holler something clever....

Sigh...

So..here's me...single...sitting on couch blogging...on New Year's Eve.  2010.  Hurrah...

Let's explore pros and cons of being single and alone at home tonight shall we?

I get to wear t-shirt and yoga pants instead of stuffing my arse into something 'hot' and my poor feet into 'kick ass' shoes...

um....
I'm getting that laundry done..

HEY...I'm not drinking and driving!  AND I feel absolutely no obligation to put out...since am all alone.

Pause for drink

Not going to weight the cons...just going to call it.

This sucks.

pout

wait...having slow emerging positive thought....

Am NOT on a bad date...am not out mixing champagne with shots and decorating toilet bowl with puke...am NOT spending twice the amount of money I`d normally spend on a night out and don`t have to worry about getting hit in the face by some idiot with a party favour!  Hurrah!  It`s not all that bad!!!

This is going to be one of those moments I regret isn`t it.  I`ll wake up in the morning, read this, blush furiously, try to find a graceful way to delete this, decide against it and write something positive and mushy about the year ahead.

Soooo...let me close with one somewhat meaningful thought...

pull it together girl...

okay, am having a couple of thoughts..

2009 wasn`t so bad...  my relationship with my daughter moved into a new phase....getting to be friend and mentor is a cool thing...moved to downtown Toronto was something I`ve always wanted to do...survived the economic downturn of the decade...was proud sister of CSI Neomom passing exam and entering the career she`d been working towards for years...YAY for you!!!  Lots of good stuff :)

The saddest .. saying goodbye to my Uncle Jim this morning :)  God bless him...

That`s Uncle Jim on the far right...God luv`ìm...

It`s time for me to close my eyes now...  tomorrow we`ll all wake to a brand new decade.

Wishing you all the very best in 2010!!!  Keep smiling...and never, ever, let the bastards get you down!
