Tuesday September 11th 1979
Dug into mail on my desk and was still at it when Tom Keis came in. Said proofs should be here they weren’t. Finally after two calls to Taylor publishing in Dallas found them at post office addressed to post office box 169- the Historical Society box. Tom and I went to get them. First 400 Pages. Just as they will appear except black spaces where pictures will be. A real thrill to see.
Two wedding appointments. Shop seems to have been on even keel while I was gone. August sales were $34,000 + $4,000 + / last year. Shop very busy with Walk-ins. And well-stocked with silk and dry arrangements.
