High 37 Low 22
River receeding – in banks but some lowlands in woods still flooded.
Dave saved the day with a lid when grease in skillet caught on fire.
Wrote Mildred Rutherford & sent $22 check for crocheted “Strawberry Shortcake”. Good genealogy material she sent on Peter & Caroline Hemmerly Baker Family.
Picked Dave up at 2:30 – Back to Caledonia P.O. to get his Registered Letter containing I.D. card – good for 3 yrs. Then to Marion for 3:00 dental appointment with Vornholt – 3 more fillings for Dave – Total bill $110. He walked back to shop while I took Endowment Fund documents to Charlie Harmon for signature. He’s taking chemo-therapy & hardly recognized him. Stopped at libary and got newspaper addresses for story on Hildreth Genealogy. Picked up Advent pictures at Meijers. Why are some so great & some so lousy?
To Gloria Marshall for ½ hr. Then down to see Mother for 15 min. Picked Dave up at shop at 4:45 & headed home. He was expecting a call from Marlene Storey – had asked her to go to movie tonight – his birthday celebration. When she didn’t call I called Royce Noble for her number & talked to her mother & made plans for her to go. Picked up Chris & to Grandview Estates for Marlene. She had decided not to go!! At the Mall Chris’ date was not at work to be picked up!! – So we 3 went to “The Toy” Richard Pryor & Jackie Gleason. Pizza after – That mall isn’t my world on Fri nite.
