Trella Hemmerly – 1980-12-30

Tuesday December 30th
Peacocks Wes Sharpe here at 8 with new furnace to install. Howard called a 2:30 saying they had finished. Jolliff from Richwood -a boiler expert- argued with Wes on his installation and made him drain system to get air out. I think that’s what caused the boiler to crack. Has been air in system since last time they fixed pump on furnace.
Called Social Security Office. Say because I own controlling interest in Hemmerly’s I have to prove I’m not running it. Can work 15 hours a month! Only sure way to draw my $675 a month is to sell business.
Took car in to have lube etc and have cassette player installed. Have to keep it overnight to get speakers and install them.
Got most of Christmas merchandise inventoried & on top shelves above silks. Value about $1,600. Sold $1,200 merchandise at half price- realized about $600.
Cheryl and I to Turroffs for dinner. Talk turned to shop business so I treated her. She went back to finish billing.
Put Terry on 2 weeks furlough because he disobeyed Judy.
