Fiorella finally made person-to-person contact with her granddaughter yesterday while riding next to her in the back seat of Son's car. Fio talked to her, sang to her, accepted the pretty stick Baby gave her, helped Baby take her shoe off (and put it on her again), and was even allowed to touch her.

Fio and family will meet with Pastor tomorrow to plan Husband's funeral. Fio, who's never done this before, is quite anxious about getting things right because no re-dos are allowed.

The Christmas decorations are still up. Fio meant to take the driveway garlands down yesterday, but didn't get around to it. She also needs to do the laundry. And maybe hem an old dress to wear to the funeral. For the last several years, she's been a jeans and shorts gal, and the hemlines of her few remaining dresses are woefully out of style.

Friends and family are everything. Ever since the news got around, Fiorella has been fielding phone calls locally and from across the nation. Thank you, one and all.

Fio continues to be in awe of the gold fireplace mantel she created. It seems to glow warmer every day, especially in the early morning when Fio first awakes, like a message from God.
