Catching Up with This and That

Fio's has built up big pile of trash in the fireplace so she can start another fire tonight. Her do-it-yourself tactic not only lightens her trash-can trundle, but reduces her heating bill. Also, she likes to watch the flame (insert devil face emoji.)

Why is it that hatefulness has become stylish? That education is derided and kindness has been shoved into the back closet? That our world, which a short time ago was dreaming of settling Mars and beyond, is now intent on destroying Earth and each other?

Pray for Fiorella. After losing five pounds by swearing off chocolate, she's gone on a Hershey's Nuggets binge and is gaining it all back.

Hmm...checking her blog stats, Fio noticed that although the US is still in the lead, France and Russia, once her major audiences, are back in the running again.

Friend Judith posted a photo of their elementary school Campfire group on Facebook, and Fio was top and center, but by the time she hit high school, the other girls had caught up with her height. It was a real shock when she was moved down to the bottom row in P.E. class.
