Comments Scribbled on the Back of Fio's Notebook

Fio always grabs a pen when she sits down to read the newspaper. Not to circle mistakes like her journalism teacher mother did, but to solve the anagrams and to mark the comics that make her laugh.

Husband's office is still writhing with black cords. It's like Medusa paid a visit and fogot to take her snakes home.
*
Fiorella would have loved to live in one of those gracious old mansions on Austin Avenue that she drove by this morning, but the upkeep must be out of this world, and besides, she wouldn't have fit in. Fio's something of a loner.
*
Fiorella knew the only way she she could deal with Husband's death was to become very, very  active. That's just how she rolls. .
*
What's HGTV gonna do when viewers get tired of watching renovations? They're getting boring, and if Fio hears to word "update" one more time, she'll throw her shoe at the TV.
