March 30 - April 2, 1965 Missing Mama



Tuesday, March 30, 1965

A nice day, very cold. I cooked an orange pie. Got my clothes in, ironed, washed out a few things. More or less busy all day. Bad news tonight. MIKE OUT OF WORK. What a shock. Yet it may turn out to be for the best.

A beautiful day but very cold and windy. I did some odds and end jobs. Betty and Mike out looking for a job. I feel so sorry for them. I hope through it all they will better themselves a lot more. I’m praying he gets something and soon. Delores called.



Thursday, April 1, 1965

A very nice day, not quite as cold. Betty and Mike gone all day. Carmen with them some. I done up regular work. Then I picked over a box of my clippings. I have thought of Mama all day. I miss her so much. After tomorrow she will seem so far away.

My thoughts are with Mama today. A heavy feeling in me today. She has been gone one year, and so many things have gone through my mind. Her chair is empty. The sound of her voice and footsteps are gone yet I see and hear her. I miss her so much. It is fair today. I didn’t do much. Betty gone and Mike gone.
