Times of the Day

MORNING
Fiorella has a great day planned for herself, and she'll started it by building a fire in the fireplace, always a good beginning. Her only trip out will be to the pharmacy so she has the rest of the day at home. There will be the humdrum must-dos like laundry and going through drawers to make sure everything has been cleaned out, but she also has a couple of must-do phone calls to make such as, consulting long-distance with elder son about ordering rounds for her DUMP TRUMP buttons and VOTER REGISTRAR badges on line. The rest of her time will be spent--wonder of wonders--on reworking Lolly's story.

EARLY AFTERNOON
The consultation with Son did not go well because Fio is, as you know, not good at using technology. Son tried to be patient, then finally gave up and said he would place the order himself later in the day.  After she put the phone down, Fiorella took care of the bills that had come in recently--writing out checks is something she does know how to do.

LATE AFTERNOON
Your faithful correspondent was so pleased with finally finding a note from an old friend which she'd thought she'd lost that she hopped into her car and drove down to Walgreens to--uh--get a prescription filled and maybe pick up a little Christmas chocolate on the side. Somehow, she made it out of the store with two Dove Bars and five Russell Stover treats, not only forgetting about the prescription but also losing her credit card. Oh well, tomorrow is another day

EARLY EVENING
O joy, O rapture! At eventide, Fiorella gathered together a couple of different versions of the first chapter of Lolly's story and started splicing them together, and guess what? SHE'S IN LOVE WITH THE STORY ALL OVER AGAIN--cold-hearted Cotton, fiery Lolly, mistakes and misunderstandings a scheming rival, danger, mysteries, even a sub-romance!
*
EVENING
All's well that ends well! Fiorella may not have been able to follow up on ordering those rounds, but she did cut out several more of the messages, build another fire in the fireplace all on her own, pay her bills, email an old friend, gorge herself on chocolate (the credit card showed up on the floor of the car), and work on Lolly's story,  Fio would give the day an A- only because she didn't get her precsription.
     See you tomorrow!
