More and More and More

Fiorella spent half the afternoon searching out tax statements for her accountant, and now she can't find where she put them down. Oh well, if she eats enough chocolate kisses, they'll turn up.    
     Her morning, she should add, was spent paying bills, tending to Sonia Dog's needs, harvesting rocks to place on the edges of garden beds, and checking out whatever was happening on Facebook. Now she plans to settle down to business and work on Lolly's story.

Two hours later, and your girl has Lolly's story all blocked out. It's not that Fio didn't know where it was going from the day one, but that now she knows how the various challenges she has put in the lovebirds' way will not only deepen the plot, but be overcome.

Some day, Fiorella hopes to get the rights to her first-published book back, and she'll immediately work the murder back into the plot. Her editor had her drop it, probably because it involved a drug deal and the category that her publishing house had put her in didn't deal in drug stories. Fio, though, wanted it in there for the sake of reality because she knew that small-town Texas, where the story was set, had become drug heaven.

Daughter went overboard with the  yellow legal pads that Fio put on her grocery list, but you don't hear any complaining from this direction. Fiorella goes through these things like water.

How did Fiorella, who is usually well-organized, get to be so disorganized? It doesn't have anything to do with her having to deal with IRS, a ranch problem, paying taxes, clearing out the house, working on a book, and handling an erosion problem and a sprinkler problem at the same time, does it?
