Friday November 3rd 1978 Sunny temperature 70
Vivian [Vivian Adams] called to wish happy birthday. Mary gave me Bulova digital watch!
Kathy woke me at 8:30 with phone call. Talked to her and kids. Steve was moved to Connecticut hospital but Inge didn’t meet him because her father died and she was in Germany. Howard had subscription to “Country Living”, two little log cabins and two place mats for my birthday. Barry took shop photos at 12:00- all 18 of us. Then the big surprise- a potluck lunch that covered all of Laura’s work table. She gave me five Kodak mailers. Letter from Uncle Allen with his biography and Grandma and Grandpa Sheneman’s rewritten. Larry Mathiot interviewed me for WMRN again. Got driver’s license renewed. Home at 5 and BBBV, Carl and Mary and Mary Rockwell waiting to take me to Malabar Inn for dinner. BBB gave me a printer’s tray.
