Thursday, October 16, 1975
Mrs. Jones here to clean, but Howard kept things so nice I really don’t need her. Worked on correcting alphabetizing that others did. In at 1:00. Kathi gone to teacher conference but shop in an uproar because she asked them to time their work & turn in production sheets. I listened, but asked them to tell her that they think they do more than expected. Laura is the one who feels she has to do Martha’s work & Dave also complained & he wasn’t there. At Boyd’s getting spray order for “Countess Lazar” Julia Strelitz*. Kids home with me & Kathi & mother out for dinner.
[*Walt’s mother Ruth was housekeeper for the Strelitz family. See Oct 17 1975 for obituary in Marion Star.]
