Motley Kind of Day

 When Fiorella's mother died, Husband proposed that Dad come live with us and our family, promising that we would make over the front room so he'd have a private suite, but instead, Dad chose to move into a home for retired teachers (which he wasn't, but Mom had been.) Fiorella will always bless Husband's memory for his concern about her father.

Whenever her day has been discouraging, Fio flees to the television zoo shows for relief. She loves watching the animals and she totally identifies with the attitude of their caretakers, who seem to love their charges as much as your girl loves her Sonia. Another reason Fiorella likes these shows is that she usually catches glimpses of the zoo babies, and you know how much your girl loves babies💗

Speaking of animals, your Fio has been running around like the proverbial chicken with its head cut off (which is really actual, according to Dad, who was the neighborhood chicken-killer when he was a kid.) Back on topic, your girl is scuttling hither and thither trying to set up the house so it will be attractive to buyers, yet leave enough basics on-site that she can live there for the time being. The front room and dining room are down to basics, but there's still a pile-up on the desk in the den.

Ah, Monday. Let's hope there's a fresh British thriller in the TV line-up.  Nothing like a good murder mystery to take a brief respite from politics, the house, and computer problems.

What a great way to end the day! Thanks to Lance, all Fiorella's cupboards got checked out and adjusted or repaired as needed. That makes her a BIG step closer to the move out.
