Trisha Haldeman birthday
Burroughs Club
What a washing. Started at 9:30 & finished at 2:00 with time out for lunch of course. Cleaned house lightly & had early supper as Mary was coming up from Columbus to go to Eastern Star. Took 10 min. to park so we sat in balcony during opening & I left at 8:00 to go to Burroughs Club at Lillian Plack’s. Nothing too exciting. Mrs. Struble read 19th cent. poets’ nature stuff – Yep, mine stinks! Back to pick Mary up at 10 & it’s snowing.
Daddy had been to Doctor again about his knee – “Housemaid’s Knee”. Taken fluid off twice now. Sure hope it isn’t serious.
Cacti shipment from Texas came & from first glance I only got $3.50 worth including postage & labeling!
