It was so weird last night, still feeling like shit after coming down with something in the Caribbean. My home covid test was negative so I don't know what's going on.

Yesterday afternoon around 1700 I talked Piper into going outside, promising to keep an eye on her. All of a sudden I got real ill and grabbed a container of water with a straw, some tissues and went to bed sweating like a pig. I spent the next six hours coughing and rolling around, listening to fireworks going off down the street, and finally remembered Piper outside.

I got up and brought her in, poor baby, and then watched the New Years Eve stuff on TV. I talked to my boy Riley on the phone who was worried about me, and went back to bed. I've been making it up to my baby all day now, gave her a spray bath with a good brush, and lots of treats. I think she forgives me...

I've also been writing code through all of this. I have a friend down in Pensacola that I met through Shelby, those two cooked me a Thanksgiving meal once, and Homer took Brian and I on a tour of the new Alabama Zoo, which he designed. Shelby told me on the cruise that Homer needs a new website for his art, separate from his design site.

Homer is an amazing designer and artist and it is my pleasure to come up with something that works for him. His current site is great, but not responsive (i.e. looks good on a phone). I'm using my template to create a workable solution, and hopefully he likes it.

It's in pretty good shape at this point, and if you would like to check it out, here you go HomerJolly.com
