Sick bay report ...

I believe I am on the mend. The principal problem right now is fatigue. So I am going to take to my bed once more. Thanks to all who have sent encouraging words and thanks also to Dave and Maxine and others who have sent links that I promise I will get to tomorrow. I used to soldier through illnesses - and I did a bit of that with this one - but I learned that it is best to deal with them effectively if you want to keep the encounter as brief as possible (and why wouldn't you?).
