I think Old Time might stop 'til I catch up. I don't recall much about a week ago today, except that I did an extra thorough job of my Friday cleaning. I wrote a short letter to Virgil, telling him how I wrote him at Los Angeles.
Saturday a.m. did my usual work & p.m. too. Josephine & Betty came back early after dinner. After supper, J & I went up town, got goods & embroidery for Bricky, a combination & crash for Daddy, a towel, and then we went to the second show at the Novelty. O.K. Daddy was nursemaid to all the kids.
Sunday morning, Josephine & Betty went to Mayetta about 9 o'clock. Leo took them. Bricky went to her own S.S. Neil took her part way & I went for her at 11. Zella, Paul & Buster came about 1`2:30. After dinner, we went for a ride (in our car). We went out to Uncle Jim's, to Gage's, saw that Farrars, Dorothy, Mrs. Burger, Mrs. Burton & Beulah Carey. Of course the kids had to have cones, pop, popcorn & balloons. Got home about six, ate some ice cream & then we all drove to Burlingame. Neil & Bricky rode with Buster. Went around by Leo Gifford & then we parted, Zella's going to John Burton's & we out home. Got there about 8 and stayed 'til nine. Ate Angel Food cake, pickles & bread & butter. I just about froze coming home. Merrill Reese is quite sick. Dr. Stahle says it's Infantile Paralysis, but hasn't told them yet.
Zella, Paul, Buster & Dorothy drove up Monday morning to shop. They got here about 9, left Buster here and then went up town. I tried to be sick, but perked up & went to the doctor about 10:30. Saw Zella up town & rode home with them. Drove around by way of Richters to see if Mabel Rees was going home with them, but Ira was coming up for her. After lunch & after Paul took a bath, they started home. Zella acts as tho' she would never see us again. She kissed John & I kissed Paul. I finished Bricky's dress Mon. afternoon, made out of Dorothy's, quite cute.
