Trella Hemmerly – 1980-11-03

Monday November 3rd
65 today with $675 a month awaiting me in Social Security. But as Daddy used to say “I have a tiger by the tail” -maybe in a year!
Kathy called at 8:45 5:45 her time to wish me happy birthday. Howard had completed the spiderweb cane seat in the German chair for me. And Rodger had my breakfast ready at the table. At the shop had a pair of ceramic turkeys made by and from no and a cake saying 65 from the shop gang and a gray sweater. They had also borrowed Dave wesner’s track sweater that had a 65 on it to give as a joke.
Bill & Erma’s for a delicious supper. Irma had made a calico kitten for me and Bill gave me tomatoes and squash. Genealogy. Bill has worked up great photo albums and written much about Farm life and his home. Home about 11
Not even a birthday card from David and Karen. Guess he thought coming up last week was my birthday remembrance.
