SOMEWHAT BATTERED!

 PANIC--Fio's computer wouldn't obey her when she tapped in the magic letters so there was nothing to do but seek help from the younger generation, and--thank you God--Fio's daughter-in-law was at hand and willing!

Fiorella finds it distressing that, as far as she can tell, our country's elections are decided by whichever side can cough up the most money. She also finds it distressing that God gave us this lush, lovely planet to enjoy, and all we do is continue to blow it up more and more every year.

Your girl had three cork boards on her inside wall loaded with everything she wanted to save, and now, with the smoke clearing, she's going through it all again, sifting out duplicates, etc., which has brought her down to two boards. Another clean-out (probably next week) should take care of a fair amount of the second board.  

DAMN! Fiorella has lost her favorite Australian TV movie and now can't even remember its name! She had kept it floating for at least four months, but now there's no story to lull her to sleep at night. Anyone remember her talking about it?

And, in the meantime, Fio has been scrabbling through every tablet or piece of paper she could find to make sure of whom would be checking her out tomorrow--hopefully not that woman who expected your girl to be heave-ho like a seasoned football player. (Give Fiorella  was always the last one chosen in back-and-forth games! )

HEY, HEY, HEY! Fio found a piece of paper with the name of her favorite movie on it, TA DA: UNFINISHED SKY! Now, however you can, pease figure out a way to get the TV to START showing it again...and again...and again. Romance is the only way Fiorella can get a good night's sleep.😊
