Fiorella had a wonderful surprise yesterday evening---her wonderful neighbor Michael appeared at her front door armed with his wonderful toolbox and a wonderful set of rainspout connections and invited your girl to join him in the backyard. Nothing could be more wonderful!
Cutting off the bottom of the old on-the-surface spout and replacing it with a connection that would allow the water to flow underground was not an easy task--and Michael did it for both of the rainspouts. It took at least two hours, maybe three, and it was so dark by the time he finished that Fio had to go inside, but by then his lovely wife, Kathy, had joined the party.
The first thing Fiorella did this morning was go out and look at the rainspouts again, then take a photo for Facebook. It's not only that she's pleased--and relieved---to have the connections installed, but that she is basting in the glow of having such wonderful neighbors. May their tribe increase.

Another wonderful thing was a surprise phone call from Daughter, which ended up being a heart-to-heart tell-all, the kind of relationship Fiorella has always wanted to have with her 🧡

This isn't so wonderful--that What Have You Done After High School masterpiece that Fiorella slaved over for her alum newsletter is not going to see the light of day for a long time--probably never--because Fio had already been published in the newsletter two years before. Looks like your girl will have to find a new outlet. Hmmmm....
