I had a terrific time away overnight with my friend, and we had a glorious long hike yesterday, even sharing our snack above the ocean with a land gull she named Hugo and I named Alphonso. Then last night I got a cold, probably from my foster granddaughter or daughter, both of whom have been around me with colds. So I'm canceling commitments and trying to head the cold off at the pass. One of our dogs has ear infections and has eaten her butt and is suffering with the cone around her neck. I feel so guilty I can hardly stand it. I may have to take off the cone soon. She just lies there looking disgusted.
So reentry into the everyday world was swift and chaotic, with my husband's back and leg worse and me under the weather. But I have the memories of a great get-away and nothing is dire, just annoying. I watched baseball last night, and that was fun and distracting from any sore throat or runny nose. Today I will make some calls and hope that rest and lots of tea and soup will fix me up. I'll baby myself, as only I know how to do.
