Dave back to school- nice vacation! Caught up on MCHS correspondence- 7 letters- transcribe minutes of board meeting from tape recorder- all day at computer. Dave had rehearsal until 8:00 and then we went in to pick up station wagon. Shop used it over Valentine’s Day. He stopped at Oleta’s to copy algebra notes he missed while away.

Temperature 58
Up at 7:00 to drive to Columbus again. Dave and Oleta at baggage area when we got there. Dave swearing and very unpleasant. At Marion said he was too tired to drive wagon home. To bed until about 8:00 p.m. I took a nap, also exhausted by strain of last two days.

All day getting ready for two meetings tonight- Publication Fund policy, resolution to County Commissioners asking for $5,000, contract with Moshers to publish their “After 40 Years.” To MCHS board meeting for 45 minutes and then to OSUM to meet with Ted Myers, Charlie King, Roger Troutman, Kensel Clutter to plan Ohio Prairie Conference for August 1st and 2nd at OSUM and Claridon Prairie. Sounds great. Mary and Ken met me at 10:00 a.m. and we drove to Columbus airport in fog. Dave and Oleta not on plane. Computer check showed plane late Chicago too late to make connection. Be in at 9:00 a.m.

Faith Evanoski got payroll run but had problems with backing it up just as I got there after Burroughs club. Bad sector on disc plus shop’s computer still doesn’t boot properly. So hooked my Ozzie I up and worked out problems but messed up IRA program because printer wasn’t plugged in right! Every time we ran it and it didn’t print it added that info to year to date totals!
Salesman from Southland Chrysler brought Dodge Ram van for us to see I like it $11,500 price.

David and I in to shop for a evaluation of deliveries. His hands-on experience showed.
1. Use garage for routing.
2. Use garbage bags for balloon arrangements.
3. Need more sandbags.
4. Use red seal on timed delivery envelopes etc etc.
All good suggestions.

He left at noon for home. Has shipped hard disk back for replacement.

Got $408 interest check from National City Bank on $2,000 CD. That will pay for the VCR- it’s a Sanyo.

Very busy but plenty of flowers sold 1,600 roses at $42.50 a dozen paying $1.95 each. Kevin? in a slight accident with wagon broke right tail light.

Waited at shop until 8:00 for David to get back from last delivery. Finally at 2:00 p.m. Terry asks for help on routing. Found many timed deliveries to businesses that couldn’t get there in time.

Kathi asked David to get flowers for me so he got three red roses! I made chili for the gang and David and I had it also for supper about 9:00 at home after buying video cassette recorder $400.
