Bill & does things for us just as if we belonged to his family. he never dresses up always come in over alls.

I took advantage of the first bare ground we had been able to have for weeks & brought in fore baskets of wood, yesterday to dry up. She went over to Waltham to play cards with Ida Loud. Phoebie Hill took Laura & she & Careta & got home around 7 O'clock. Ida Louds daughter is around 40 years old & is going to have her first baby. they are people she used to know when she had her money & lived with her husband. they all had a beautiful time. Laura and Careta never knew them 'till lately. but enjoys their company. I was glad the day was pleasant & could get outside once more & thoroughly enjoyed being alone. I also enjoyed seeing bare ground once more. shall be glad to see spring once again & guess we all shall. I have been eating brown bread & baked beans they taste as good as meat for a change. Irma Wayland made us a Christmas present of a long package of different kinds of jellies. they tasted fine. they came in a package that looked like glass each of the little bottles of jell were not over a finger long. I Guess there were six of them in all. each one different, she is very good to us & comes here when she has a holiday with Gladys. her chum a funny looking couple one very short & the other very tall.
