I'm enclosing some news articles of what's been happening here. Not kept, apparently.
Was nice to get your good news about the house. Sounds wonderful. Somehow I find it hard to think of Paul mowing the lawn, shoveling snow, etc. But you'll love having your own home & really feeling settled. We look forward to a visit next Fall. Both a baby & a house to see.
We are enjoying attending First Luth. Dad isn't as happy having 2 Sun. services ( 8 A.M. + 11 A.M.) & Wed. Lenten midweek. On Wed. they have a supper at 6. Soup is provided & people bring either sandwiches or salad. It is nice. Think we'll attend First Church at times later on. The pastor's hip replacement was successful but he can't be in a car for 3 weeks. He comes back for Holy Week &^ that will be a busy week to start after a serious operation. The people have been so nice to us.
Kim's friends are having a shower for her Mar. 26. It will be a large one & it will be at St. Joseph school.
We meet Barb next Sat at 1 pm in Erie. Did I say they have a new Red Lobster by the Mall & I'd like to eat there. Some Sun. Kim & Lar would like to go with us to Millcreek Mall, shop & then eat at The Red Lobster. I hope all will go well with Barb at home. We're glad to have her - hope she can change to her old self -- date, etc.
Not much going on in our lives. Still reading a lot, crocheting, eating out, & enjoying retirement in general.
Svea is staying with Ruth & Rudy - they thought it was too much for Lila with Min not too week. But they plan to come to the wedding & so do Ruth & Rudy. Oh yes, Lar wants your measurements or has he called. I haven't written for awhile & he said he'd call.
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.
