These are transcriptions of my grandmother's journals and writings from different points in her life from her girlhood diaries in Kansas in the early 1900's to her later years.

Thursday morning, I finished my ironing. After lunch, I persuaded Bricky to take a nap and I made my chocolate fudge with nuts. Then I got Lesson No. 18 ready to mail. Alfred Gustafson was here last evening from 7 'til nearly 11 -- he has rented out his Filling Station -- has a job he doesn't doesn't like and is looking for one more to his liking. He seemed to enjoy the Woman's Home Companion. On Sat. had one 'ell of a headache all day but couldn't go to bed of course. I cleaned out the pantry & part of the kitchen cupboard this morning. This P.M. I "rubbed" my clothes out, washed & mended some silk hose and washed Neil a shirt -- must go iron it so he'll have a clean on to wear to school tomorrow. Jackie has a measly cold and feels quite fierce.
