April Fool

April 1 was not kind to Fiorella. She couldn't get online, which meant she couldn't read the news, check the weather, proofread her blog, or peruse her e-mail. Husband's laptop was in the same fix. Yes, it's probably an April 1 virus which somehow got through the firewall. Fio was devastated. What sort of person would do such a mean thing?

Then, as she was driving to a 1:00 meeting at the library, she noticed two baby horses in a pasture by the road. And she remembered all the baby goats she has been seeing gamboling in the fields lately, and the calves trailing after their mothers. And she felt better. Maybe there's still hope for the world.

In the meantime, Husband has jerry-rigged a connection for her upstairs on his desktop computer. So if Fio is running a little slow, you'll know why. It's hard to work on an unfamiliar machine.
