Uptown after Wally came home. He stayed with the kids. Got me a pair of loafers $5.50 & 2 pr. anklets 45 cents each. Got 2 records for David’s birthday & then at Alber’s got 4 for us. They have a pretty good selection there but it takes my time!
Mother & daddy came in after supper. Wally was having Poker Party here so I had to pitch in & do dishes & make potato salad.
After getting things settled I went to Romine’s – about 8:45. Used their typewriter to type up some verse – many want to give Judge a try at it. Then we studied seed catalogs – & I dreamed. Ray accused me of being the kind of a gardener who goes out with a big hat – basket & shears to cut flowers! Played some ping pong & I got 14-15 & 11 on him. Home about 12:30.
