As Dymphna reported last night while still in a woozy condition, she is suffering from the after-effects of a root canal she had to endure on Tuesday. That has interfered with her normal activities, so if you have written her any emails in the last few days, she may be delayed a while in her replies.

She’s feeling somewhat better today, but is nowhere near back to her usual rambunctious self.

Her troubles have also interfered with my activities to a certain extent. The pharmacy in the little town nearest to us was closed, so I had to make the long round trip to the big pharmacy in town late last night to get a prescription for an antibiotic.

But today has been less hectic, and I’m gradually catching up with the backlog. With luck, normal programming will resume soon.
