Too Much, Too Much!

Has there ever been a day in Fio's life when she didn't wake up with a to-do list a mile long? Now, please excuse her--she has to go water the jasmines.

After an hour or so of digging up papers and calling around, Fiorella finally got the septic system contract thing settled. Turns out the Septic guy HADN'T sent in a copy of the contract, but he's going to send one to Fio now--supposedly.  In the meantime, Fiorella will take a walk up the driveway to (1) re-glue her acknowledgments on the friendship plank, (2) pick up the mail, and (3) visit with her loving trees.

Last night, Fiorella had decided most of her day would be dedicated to writing, but it's late afternoon, and she hasn't even opened Lolly's pages. Instead, she's carried loads down from her upstairs office and packaged them for transport, gotten hold of Nephew to make sure he knows about his unclaimed inheritance, re-glued the friendship plank, checked out FB, done her washing, and talked to her trees. What your girl needs is an office all her own, one that doesn't have to be torn apart.

Fio's mother's maiden name, Fio's maiden name, and Husband's surname all began with the same letter. Hmm....
*
In the male line, Fiorella's mother's father, his father, and his father were all alcoholics. So were Husband, his uncle, and his maternal grandfather. In the female line, Fio's mother married a non-alcoholic, and neither Fio nor her brother are alcoholics, although Mother's brother and his son were.
     Mother's liquid preferences were tea and water. Fiorella's are milk and water.
     Probably too much personal info, but the kids need to know.
