So Jeannie came up with a new New Year's Eve antic.

You open the doors of your house before midnight to let the old year out,
then leave it open for a while after midnight to let the new year in.
It sounded OK to me at bedtime, but when she woke me at 11:50 pm,
it was about 35 degrees outside. So when the rite was over I had to build a new
fire in the woodstove. Why can't the New Year come between June and July?

1. Could move to Australia?

2. Midnight-Cold night- fireplace-wife

Sounds romantic to me (but, I live in Florida)

4. I just heard that one this year so I

decided to open my front door this morning when the dog went for the newspaper. That’s just going to have to do.

5. I think you have to open the front door and the back door (this tip came from the Texas panhandle)

to get all of the old out--a little cross ventilation. We have three downstairs doors but could
only open two because we didn't want the cats to run outside.

6. That makes more sense. I'll try that now although

the statute of limitations may have run out since midnight. Lol.
