A 20-minute nap...
... took me four hours.
I really did plan to go to sleep early last night, but someone on Skype kept me up.
Let's see if I am more efficient today as a result of my extended rest.
Still not feeling 100% from last week.....

Like being 6-years old again

As you may have noticed, posting has been slow this morning.
Last night, as I was about to go to sleep, I felt a sharp pain in my right ear. I rubbed at it a bit and went to sleep. The pain got worse, and during the night (such as it was - I didn't plan to sleep much last night anyway), it woke me up.
In the morning, I mentioned it to an older man in the synagogue who suggested the 'old country' remedy of putting a cotton ball with olive oil on it into my ear. That helped a little until Mrs. Carl finally said, "you know, you've been getting progressively worse all week and it's already Thursday and you'll be miserable all weekend. Why don't you go see a doctor for a change?"
She who must be obeyed....
So I did....
I have an ear infection. I don't think I've had one of those since I had my tonsils out at the end of first grade. So I'm putting my drops in and taking things a little bit easier.
This too shall pass.
