Today is the start of another journal that covers about 6 months in 1925. By this time Winnie is 28, married, and the mother of three young children. Neil is 6, Bricky is 3 1/2, and Jack is 1 1/2. They spent the first years of their marriage in Detroit, but moved back to Topeka, Kansas sometime between Bricky and Jack's births. --kp
Just to be foolish, I thought I would start a diary again. Glenn M. came yesterday afternoon to see if he could stay all night (which of course he could). He came up to consult with Dr. Kraus concerning his teeth. The doctor thinks he'll have to have about nine out but wants to take an X-ray first. He said their bad condition is the result of a fever he had when small -- measles or smallpox, & that his whole system is undermined because of their condition. Glenn went up to town to meet Mabel at 5:30 and they both came back here for supper. Mabel had a Marcela and she looked fine. It, combined with the sense of satisfaction having a job gives her, improves her. Glenn went to a show but came in before we went to bed.
I got a letter from Dorothy. I worked hard all morning. Glenn went out to the S.B.A. Hospital to see Mabel and hasn't returned yet (4:30). Bathed Jackie and Bricky this afternoon and typed a few pages of an old diary. I sent a letter to Fossbergs. It is real cold today -- can't seem to keep the house warm enough.
