Writing, Painting, and Creativity


It's a little early, but if anyone is making a Christmas gift list, Fiorella would like a technology fairy who'd always be on call to hover over her shoulder. On the other hand, after poking every button she could find and pleading with God, your girl did get the first scene of Lolly's story printed out.

Son is bringing his realtor friend over to meet Fio and look at the house this morning, and the Realtor who advised Fiorella a couple of months ago will be coming over to meet Son this afternoon. Fiorella has brought down boxes and cleaned the place up as much as she can, but the house is a mess. Moving is hard enough, but moving during a pandemic, when people are understandably wary of giving you a hand, is the pits.

Your girl is still boxing pictures and paintings. Hope there's room for them in the new house. Also hope they will be appreciated.

One of the paintings is a nude of Fio when she and Husband were young and feisty. He was giving her a hard time about painting with good clothes on, which made her so angry that she stripped off all her clothes--and continued painting. Husband retaliated by snapping a picture of her her, and she liked the pose so much that she turned it into a painting.

Fio has had to be very creative in boxing up larger paintings--did you know that you can lay cardboard moving boxes down flat and tape the bottoms and tops shut? Also, that you can cut the sides of a box apart and tape them onto another box that has been cut as needed? It's sorta fun😁
