Harried, but Happy

Given that Fio is the offspring of a thrifty woman who cut up her husband's cast-off tennis pants to make a charming Christmas dress for their daughter, do you really think she will let Husband's wardrobe go to waste?

Hold on for a rough ride. In relation to the continued imprisonment and hazy future of The Children,  Fiorella referred to Jonathan Swift's "A Modest Proposal," a satire in which he suggested that starving Irishers sell their children to the rich to be cooked up for dinner. THAT should light up Faceook!

That Apple computer that Elder Son bought for Fio arrived yesterday afternoon, and he's been hard at work on it ever since. Apparently, just like all computers, it's tricky, but Fiorella's sure he will have it behaving by the time he flies back to Minnesota. (Otherwise, it's off to Click she goes.)

Dang it--Fiorella's really on a chocolate binge, and it has to stop before she's not able to wear husband's T-shirts and pullovers anymore!

The best part of Friday was when friend Suzy called Fio. There's nothing like spilling one's guts to an old, trusted friend. We know each other's stories inside and out, and we haven't let a little thing like the Atlantic Ocean come between us.
