A very nice day. I got my cooking done early. Billie, Betty and I to town, down to Ferns. Over to Lila and Thena’s. I took over a loaf of bread and brownies. Mike came tonight. He stayed all night. Billie felt bad tonight at supper time because only one week ago Raymond was here. We miss him so much. We will always miss him so much.
