Trella Hemmerly – 1947-04-18

Friday, April 18, 1947
Lovely day – trilliums are coming through ground & bloodroot blooming – but I’m just plain lazy. Got a cold & spent part of afternoon on davenport.

Met Mary’s train at 4:18 & she went with me to shop for groceries. Noticed a difference since last fall in things attainable. Started taking mother’s flu medicine & felt better.

Mary made Eagle Brand milk & chocolate bit fudge – Delicious!! Took kids to mother’s & we went shopping – bought paint for bathroom & our bedroom & $3 sheets, pants for the kids. Then to daddy’s & transplanted 200 snapdragon plants.

Mary was showing me how to use Botany key – (Bloodroot, Hepatica) when Fanny & Floy & Norma Jean Baker came. Visited & had popcorn. I came home about 11.

Wally’s team won the league first spot – He went to Bernard’s to work on some printing for bank.
