Orthotics, Domain, Mask, Lolly, Sonia

After spending half of sabado in pain, Fiorella finally took off her left shoe to see what la problema was. As it turned out, Fio, her usual brilliant self, had tucked two orthotics in the same shoe.
     How did that happen, you ask. Well, your girl likes to set up time-saving systems, and one of them is that, after she dresses in the master bathroom each morning, she grabs her shoes and sticks her socks in one of them and her orthotics in the other, then runs downstairs to dress her feet in the living room, but yesterday, she transferred the socks correctly, but left the orthotics in the same shoe. Yes--your girl hoisted herself on her own petard.

NEWS FLASH: In about a month, Fiorella will be using one of her dormant domains to talk about her adventures as a romance writer. Look for it--she'll be using the name Jerusha Bolton.

Have you made a mask yet? Fio, who sewed up a storm in her salad days, is pulling fabric and pin cushions out of storage to construct a bright red face-cover. (She got tired of wrapping her face in a wool scarf or silk handkerchief when she had to go out.)

How is Lolly's story going, you ask--or maybe you don't, but Fio will tell you anyway. Another chapter and she'll be halfway through the book, which means she'll have to put on her thinking cap and figure out how to make the rest of the story behave according to her original outline. That's not as easy as it sounds. Stories have been known to go off on their own and never be seen again.

 Whew! Fio was worried about Sonia Dog having to adjust to different brands of food than she is accustomed too, but so far, no problem--especially when Fiorella puts some of her own food in the bowl as a topping.
