No Party for me...unless I'm just dancing in my head

Shannon is still very ill. A bit better, but then, what is a bit better than death. She's worn out trying to heal and still croaky. I'm staying home to take care of her and pander to her wishes. I'll be missing the New Years Eve party, but on the other hand, I'm taking care of someone who takes care of me. I see a win in there for me. I'll miss you folks, but I'm where I need to be.
