Hi from a fellow LP!

Not exactly alone, two DCs still patrolling the living room etc, but feel fairly alone yes.

Here's to 2011 for us all xxx
Hope we have a grand time soon x

Hello,

Another new LP (though only seperated from DP by HMP Norwich but that's a story for another day) only been on my own with 2 DC since 16th Dec and not plucked up courage to post before.

Happy New year - off to bed shortly myself - well, who's here to see if I make it to midnight or not?!

SproutsMakeTortoiseFart · 31/12/2010 21:55

On my own too well, except for 4 DC all up! They love trying to stay awake until midnight. Smile
About to play pictureka!

Hazeleyedbaby · 31/12/2010 22:08

artydeb · 31/12/2010 22:31

Yep, i'm having first NY as LP too. Not too bad as I was planning to go out but can't plan poorly DC's (asleep) and to be frank, not really that bothered now. Hooray for thread though, not feeling lonely Smile

MuffinsMummy · 31/12/2010 23:06

Me to! DD1 & 2 r in bed DD3 is sat on my lap. Getting a bit bored now might have to get a baileys. Am BF so was going to save it for midnight but might be asleep by then!

sarjose · 31/12/2010 23:27

I am! two kids upstairs and my Mum was here but was too tired to stay til midnight, recently dumped Blush and a baby due on Monday so cannot get drunk! Not feeling too sorry for myself though because I think if the ex had still been here I would have felt less relaxed perhaps, Happy New Year everyone x

I've just dropped my son off at his dad's house. My daughter is downstairs asleep on the couch, poorly.

I have tried really hard to be in party mode tonight - we have an open invite to a friends house, and we maybe should have gone, I know the kids wanted to, but my dad died two years ago today and since then I have found it impossible to celebrate New Years Eve. Maybe in time.

Happy New Year all, I hope 2011 is good to you.

gillybean2 · 01/01/2011 00:23

On my own here, ds asleep finally. And I was snoozing on the sofa till half the neighbours decided to wake me up with their firework! Now am being sucked into tomb raider on the tv. Will probably fall asleep watching that too, dunno why I don't just go to bed instead.
