Sick day, or: Relax

I
have a
strong 
cough that's
bothering
me a
lot.
I am
going to
take a sick day
and relax.
Mostly,
I'm
concerned
about not
getting
friends 
sick at
work.

3. I’ve not had a cold since before the pandemic due to mask wearing. I’m still wearing the mask due to the Delta variant… I did get a stomach bug the only time I didn’t mask up – at a church dinner… I hope you are on the mend and that the cough flees and you are feeling back to normal!!

   1. ❤ thanks, Muri ❤
      I'm still coughing, but feeling better for sure – probably going back to work tomorrow! (Alas.)

7. Hope you feel better soon, David.
   Coughs are especially worrisome these days!
   (The info about bats above is interesting. We watch them here at dusk sometimes. I never thought of them living in the belly, as they fly out from the tops of our big old trees. 😀)

   1. Yeah – I’ve only seen them in and around trees here in Jerusalem! Thanks, Merril ❤

      Yours,
      David

11. enjoy a sick day or two – do you have owls in Jerusalem? I doubt it, but if you can find one on youtube, sick days are a great way to listen. Be well. 🙂

    1. I haven’t seen owls, but I’ve seen bats near our previous apartment… does that count? 😉

       1. “The bat is a symbol of rebirth and death because it is a creature that lives in the belly of the Mother (Earth).”

          1. cool 🙂

       2. as for owls you have to LISTEN; that said I just took out a book on owls from the library and it has a story where an owl appears at a big football match to sit on the goal, distracting players and spectators alike – they had invaded what had been her territory, it turned out. Get well –

          1. thanks!

12. Hope you waltz back to health very soon.

    1. ❤ thanks, Marion, me too ❤
