Fio's Ups and Downs

Wondering how many books have started out as scriblings on napkins at Starbucks. 🙃

Fiorella is sorting through her romances to see which ones to keep for inspiration. Strangely, her Betty Neels collection is in the "keep" pile. The sex never went further than a kiss, but that woman could tell a story. 💗

Fio played the piano this morning for the first time since Husband died. It was a matter of trying to center herself, to find "normal" again. Maybe she'll add in the plies and standing push-ups tomorrow.🌝

Only one more episode of Big Bang Theory next week, which will make Fiorella very sad. The only other show Fiorella watches faithfully is Colbert's, but just the opening monologue. 😢

The gist of yesterday's intended post was that Fio delivered that huge box of Husband's clothes to The Caring Place in the rain, deposited a check at the bank, but couldn't get gas because the lightning had messed up the tanks so she drove the Mercedes to Austin on a quarter tank. The storm hit while she was en route, and she had to wait in her car for 25 minutes before she could take her books into 1/2 Price. Then she drove to Central Market (a local watering hole) to meet with friend Kaye for an hour, then thought she had lost her yellow tablet, but it showed up hidden in the car. Next she drove to Goodwill and donated her remaining books, then went to her bank to get the account changed to her name only, then started home, unaware she had lost her tablet for real until she stopped at a gas station and a man leapt out of car that had been trailing her and gave her her tablet.  (Fio told the story more cleverly and in greater detail in the post she accidentally deleted. 😢
