We are on the same boat. I too had simple celebrations, nothing too shabby, and went back to sleep shortly after the firecracker shows.

My family visited me and we had nice talks, but it wasn't much of a big deal, however. I'm just happy that I didn't have to leave house, I too am a home-body, and here in Brazil, every end of the year means traffic jams everywhere and summer heat making our lives miserable.

But still, I'm happy to hear from you, and happy new year!
