Thursday, January 30, 1947
Morning mail contained 4 of my verses with “dejection” slips from Judge & letter from Betty Dunn about a Wildflower phone salon.
Rearranged the living room as I cleaned. Somehow this always makes it seem cleaner. Brought forsythia branches in to force. Our tempo today was 50 but we were in a pocket – sleet & snow all around us. Rained considerably though – pool in back yard.
David vomited just before supper – Bernard Brooks brought some printed stuff for the bank & Wally asked him to stay for supper – Bless the pressure cooker! As David seemed better we went over home* & played ping pong – I’m trying now to get something on the ball while it’s in play. HOme about 8 & I worked on the photo album – completed it through ’44. Mr. Carhart called to ask me to speak at the May meeting of Sun & Shade Garden Club on wildflowers.
