A Summertime Cold

Hello one and all. Summer colds are never fun, but I got off lightly this time. I caught it early and got to the doctor right away. Whatever this particular virus, or whatever, happens to be, a lot of people have caught it, and it can be quite nasty (in this case, nasty describes it much better than just bad). So as I said, I am quite lucky. Other people have gotten a much worse case of it than I, and for those of you who have, you definitely have my unreserved sympathy. In the meantime, I am drinking lots of lemon ginger herbal tea with honey, sucking on Hall's cough drops, and taking Tylenols. Edgar was in a rather agitated state all morning. He just wouldn't settle down until after he took a short nap on my foot. Now he is preening (what birds do to clean and groom their feathers) on my arm while I am trying to type this. Not matter that it makes it more difficult for me. After all, he is the King. I am finishing up a wonderful book, and probably will start another one this afternoon. For those of you who are not sick, I hope you get a chance to enjoy the beautiful day out there. Something I won't be able to do, as I am stuck inside.
Edgar has interrupted my typing twice, now, for headrubs. I have spoiled him rotten, and created a little feathered monster. Ah, well. No one is perfect. Most definitely not I.
May the course of the day see you all safely through...
