Saturday, Jan. 23th [[rd]] '86

I worked most of the morning, ma made some doughnuts today. This afternoon I practiced on skating, I am learning fast. We skated on the branch. Then I came up and made my largest doll a jersey cap.

It was real cold this morning, but has moderated this evening. Walter and Calvin are both sick today. Emma fell down this evening and spilt a bucket of milk all over her.
