Embrace yourself sistrens cause this is a lot.

There's a new years eve dinner, some wine, then we turn on every light in and outdoors, then we have do the countdown, then at 00:00 we must turn off the central switch of the electricity and then back on again (this makes more sense in cities when doing it in sync) then we have to open every door and window (so that the New Year can come in :D) then everyone goes out at the balcony or the veranda to see the fireworks and in the same time we have to hug and kiss twice once on each cheek. Then we have to throw a pomegranate in the front of the door so that it breaks and seeds spill on the floor (this is for good luck) and then we are cutting the New Year's pie, we serve the champaign and we do the Xmas gifts exchange and unwrapping (they have been under the xmas tree all this time until now). Then it's basically a card game which is a version of Blackjack however the number that you win with is not 21, but 31 (cause of the day) and the last thing that you have to do is that the youngest member of the family (in our case me) has to walk out of the door, and then ring the bell to come in, but upon walking in you must come in with your right leg first and wish everyone Happy New Year. Then and only then you can do whatever you like.

I’m already EXHAUSTED.
 
Imagine what his kids are going to have for toys, if we dont destroy the planet.
 
This could be the first year in a long time where I might just stay in but the night is still young. All the clubs here are open past midnight just for New Year’s but probably not the best idea to go.
 
Honestly it's like midnight fireworks going off here. Surely the next 2 hours can't be like this :argh:
 
We're fine. I think. I mean we're both too lazy to cheat or end it. I just think after 11 years things get stale and we have had the discussion tonight that we need to make more effort.

The last 7 months have been non stop and we've not really spent proper time together. It's all very monotonous at the moment. Work, eat, clean, sleep. There's no affection. And it needs to change.

I get it and I don't think the pandemic helps to be honest. Lots of couples have broken up in this time.

You are built to last though. I am sure you'll be fine huns xx
 
I imagine it's been a tough year Rachey so don't be hard on yourselves. It takes time to settle when you make such a big transition like you did. You both must be exhausted too right now which also clouds your judgement on things.
 
We've heard no fireworks this evening luckily... heathcliff is getting a bit too old to cope with the stress.
 
I was just on Facebook, happened to see a post by a friend I've not spoken to in over year who very rarely posts anything, decided to phone her on a whim and spent about 90 minutes chatting to her. What a lovely way to end the year :)

I’ve decided to not go out, so I’m going to get drunk with my parents probably (and maybe watch football :()
