Friday, January 26, 1968 CARMEN BETTER

A very nice day, sunny warm. I done up my work. Waiting to hear from the Horton’s. A call from Betty, Carmen is BETTER. She is out of isolation and not intensive care anymore. Betty and Walt too feel better. Poor Kim is sick today thou, but not too bad yet. Billie took me to town tonight. Bill to bed early. Billie and I called at Ferns.

A beautiful day. Billie and I up early, got ready and left to go to the Horton’s with Fern. We got up there about noon. At three we went to the hospital to see Carmen. She was very glad to see us. Betty took us out. It seems so good to see her and to know she is a lot better. After visiting with her a little while we went back to Betty and Walt’s, had coffee and started for home at 4:30. Got home at 7:30. Had good beans, bread etc. Fern here for supper.

Monday, January 29, 1968 Called Betty, all better

Cloudy and cloudy, a fine snow and rain mixture. Called to Betty this morning. Carmen is real good, going to get up today. Betty had a phone call from Esther Saturday night. Carmen ate a good meal yesterday. I got cards off to her and Kim. A letter off to Dorothea. They are still sick down there. I didn’t do much today.
