Today is my boss's birthday. They were friends for years before I started working for them. Anyway, they have a huge home and always have a party on New Years Eve, in honor of John's birthday. There is no alcohol except for a sip of champagne at midnight. It is full of all my friends from church and we eat and talk an have all kinds of games going, ie Apples to apples, domino's, scrabble, rummykub, all kinds of fun stuff. The house is large enough that when we all had teenagers they could fit about 60 of them upstairs in their bonus room.
Unfortunately our head pastor asked my DH to plan a movie and party at the church for tonight. He will be there and I will be with all of our friends. I will probably go over there so I can kiss him at midnight. The church is basically across the street and my friends are only about 2 miles down the road, all in town streets. (the main one runs right past the police station)
