Wednesday, January 29, 1997


Late nite Ruth called to tell us that Stella is moving to the Augustana Retirement home in Mpls.  She'll have a 1 bed apt on the 6th floor.  She'll be happier there as she has friends living there.  Also I have a friend who lives there.  Donald is improving.  Today Ruth is will be going to the P. A. Peterson home in Rkfd.  It was getting to be too much for Ruth.  The daughters (Ruth) didn't approve - Mimi offered to take her but they aren't home to care for her nor realize the extent of care needed.  There are 6 people from her church there so she'll know people.  It's been a hard experience for Ruth - I agree with her decision.

Lynn got a new, larger freezer for her home.  The old one is a small one.  Knowing Kim would like to get a freezer, Barb asked Lynn about it.  Result:  Kim gets to buy it for 75.00.

I've been cleaning out drawers while watching T.V.  Nice to have things in order again.

Holder's house is for sale, so we'll be getting more new neighbors on the St.

Hope to remember to enclose an article from the paper on our library & it's monetary problems.  The County commissioners & School Board are all having money problems.  Teacher's are still hoping for a contract that was due last July 1.

Now it's Fri. the last day of March Jan.  I have the last day of Mar. on my mind + SPRING.  In time.

Got your letter today.  Very interesting reading.  There's been a lot of T.V. & in the papers about Star Wars.  Your skating sounded like fun - good family sport.




Am enclosing a recipe for C. C. cookies with oatmeal!  It's easy & delicious.

We had fish sandwiches for supper.  Dale just came home & will have the same.  He surprised me.  French fries & a milkshake.

We'll get this ready to mail tomorrow.  I get a hair trim tomorrow & really need it.
