March

Fio's brother gave her a small box of greeting cards that their mother had received when her own mother died. A leather remembrance book lay on top of the pile, and reading through it made Fio think about not only her maternal grandmother, but her paternal grandmother and maternal great-grandmother, all of whom  died when Fio was a young child. Curious, she Googled her foremothers' death dates and learned that her great-grandmother had died on March 2 (when Fio was two), that her father's mother had died on March 11 (when Fio was three), and mother's mother had died on March 22 (when Fio was four).  

Does Fio see a pattern here?

Ponderings

Fio's all about economy and security.  She turns off lights and locks doors.

Fiorella read an article about how grandmothers are opting for being called anything but Granny or Grandma nowadays.  Since Fio's grandmothers died before she was five and her own kids have yet to propagate, she has no opinion in the matter.  Although she would like to be a grandmother some day.

Growing older means trying to make sense out of an increasingly senseless world.
