Physically I’m feeling much better but there’s quite a lot of brain fog making it difficult to put words together for more than a paragraph! Thanks, Olga.

I’m kind of getting used to brain fog as it seems to have affected me for three or four years for various reasons! Thank you, Tish.

My dear, I have been fighting the infernal fires over here thus nowhere near a computer. How are you doing? You seem to be having a very difficult time of it. I shall read up as I go. As usual, it’s the middle of the night and I must retire. Take good care, dear one. xox
