Sleep does wonders
 ...although I'll probably be flat on my back again within a few hours. Bed rest is pretty much the only thing I can do for these recurring viruses I get.

But, a lovely morning, new leaves on the birch tree, Jasmine cozying up to me at dawn to remind me lovingly that her dish is empty (or almost empty, or may be empty soon). Taking the dog out early in the morning is always a blessing, to see the new day. Because of daylight savings, this was just a few minutes before actual sunrise, and there was a single dove sitting on the telephone wire, warming himself in the first pink flush of daylight, cooing. (Goodness knows where the crows were. In a bar, I suppose).

Fretting, waiting for the go-ahead from my editor on the next phase of the re-write, although I do have an Alternate Project Which I Have Been Asked Not To Talk About.

I'm glad you got some rest. It does help most things I've found.

"Alternate Project Which I Have Been Asked Not To Talk About."

Dang it, now I'm dying of curiosity! It's hard enough waiting for your next book without tantalizing bits like that! :)

A hot bath and sleep usually does wonders for me, too. I've even been able to dance away a cold. Unfortunately I can't get away from work right now to do either (I'm getting a cold as well).

Alternate Project Which I Have Been Asked Not To Talk About Arrgh, good thing I'm not curious! :)

Be well!

I've found in recent years that I turn into a zombie the first couple of days I'm sick, so bed rest isn't really negotiable. Wish it was - I miss the days of being able to soldier through darn near anything.

"Alternate Project Which I Have Been Asked Not To Talk About"?... Will you be able to give out any hints?
