We got here late Wed. aft. & altho we didn't drive in rain, it has rained Thurs & Fri. However we awoke to a sunny day with blue skies & we just came back from a refreshing walk. Soon we are going to a craft show in Wilbraham.
Thurs we went to the Enfield, Conn, Mall & other stores & I got a pretty lime colored sweater & Gen got a bright wine sweater.
Fri. we looked at skirts & we each found a print one we liked & both of us look nice in our new outfits.
Thurs. we were to Edith's for dinner & what a lovely home she has & the table looked so nice.
Yesterday we also went to see Jerry & it is sad to see him. He can't talk so you can understand & we don't know if he recognized us. He is in a nice clean home & Millie visits regularly, usually to feed him. He loves to eat.
Last nite we were at Millie's & we had a delicious lamb dinner & I tho't of how you'd enjoy that dinner, Paul.
Gen & Ed couldn't go as there was a meeting at the Historical Soc & Gen is Pres & had to introduce the speaker. She wanted us to go there but family came first.
Soon we are going out & tonite we go to Edna & Wally's for dinner.
Aunt Esther called & we have to see where she is. She'll be with us Sun. when we celebrate Ed & Gen's 35th anniv. We're going out to a Brunch at 2 pm. Wally plans to pay the bill - we all wanted to share but he said no!
We leave Mon. after an enjoyable visit on the go most of the time - even in the rain.
This A.M. we went to a craft fair & it was a large one in a school. I got a couple of little things. Now it's after lunch & we're going out again to a Fabric Shop. Dad will take a nap.
When we get back I'll have to do something with my hair - the rain was hard on it and get ready to go to Edna & Wally's.
We'll call on your birthday & hope to get some Christmas gift suggestions at that time!!!
Until July 2010, when her eyesight deteriorated, my mother wrote 1000s of chatty letters during her lifetime - to her parents, in-laws, sisters, children, friends. Tho she started to write to me on a regular basis in Sept '68 when I began my freshman year at SUNY-Buffalo, it wasn't until 10 years later that I decided to hold onto them. (Very inconsistently at first, to which the big gaps between dates attest.) These are the letters transcribed, annotated, and otherwise highlighted here.
