Woke at 10. Had very vivid dreams about Keith Lamb & family in Ireland. Played piano – restained walnut chair after Howard had removed glue & resanded. Made cranberry sauce & baked apples & Howard & I went to mary & Rocky’s about 1. They had gone to Marysville to pick up Annie Gunderman with mother. Kathi called in midst of dinner. She’s cooking turkey & will go to Zoo. Howard, Mother & I took Annie home. Stopped at shop & picked up Keogh plan report for IRS & Dept of Labor & got it completed. 6 weeks late!

Designers comfortably busy, but front sales area very busy. Lydia Hopkins died & did her work to be delivered tomorrow. Russ Cramer & Richard Straub helped Barry on deliveries. I left at 5:45 with 3 Caledonia deliveries & everything was finished. Sure wish Dave Woessner was a little more mature. Thinks he has to keep the young girls entertained.
David called – has gig so won’t be to Marion until Monday AM & will stay overnight then.
