When the new Year came in I was like the pooch, I was fast asleep. Only woke briefly when the fireworks were exploding at midnight. Good luck in the contest. Patricia

LOL A sixer for being so darn clever with this one. I loved the picture of the dog and thought this entry was really unique and well thought out.

A good 5/7/5 for the New Year's Eve contest entry. Hope you and your pup enjoyed 'vegging' - never heard that word before but the last, clever, line explains. Good Luck in the contest - great picture - and HAPPY NEW YEAR - warm regards Dorothy x

I just can't imagine how this little five, seven, five could be any cuter. Between the 'vegging,' zzz-phew' and phenomenal artwork, I should be smiling all day. Thanks for posting.

Which gives away your age! When did we give up on partying and fun in favour of comfort and companionship? probably about the time we acquired some modicum of wisdom!

At least I made it to midnight still awake this time around!

Good luck in the contest.

"Just me and my pup
We'll be vegging on the couch
Zzzzz-phew, zzzzz-phew, zzzzz"
this is sweet little sentiment for the joys of new years! sleeping with the dog is actually a good idea since most of them are really afraid of rockets!
anyhoo, thank you for sharing!
