I went out to dinner with my neighbors at 5pm to miss the crowd. We were home by 8. I watched the Lincoln Center Christmas special with the NY Philharmonics (you can see it for a week on PBS.org) and then 30 minutes of Frank Sinatra at Carnegie Hall. After that I watched Lady Gaga and Mayor Blumberg hit the switch to drop the ball in Times Square. (Guess you can tell I used to live there! I do love New York!) It was just 11pm here and I went to bed with my crazy cat tucked under my arm. Widowhood is a "not so fun" place to be. Still, I have a great family and good health and so much to be thankful for.
