Wednesday, September 8, 1971 SCHOOL BEGAN TODAY, KIMMY’S FIRST DAY

HOT. A very hot and humid day. I got up early this morning, got my work done than down to Betty’s to see Carmen off the first day of school. She started the third grade this year. She looked as pretty as a picture when she left in her new clothes. I came home, done up my work. Rushed around then went down to see Kimmy get off on her first day of school and her first year. She looked like a doll in her new dress. In p.m. Dorothea and Jeff came up. Jeff looked very nice in his new school clothes. He is a very nice looking guy. First time we had seen him since he got home from Michigan. All three of my school-age grandchildren looked very good. Dorothea, Betty and I made plans for picnic. Dorothea got a lot of vegetables here and at Betty’s.

Still hot and humid. I done regular work and then went down to Betty’s to babysit while she did her lawns. I got Kimmy ready for school. She looked so cute in her little dress. It was a red and white check today. I washed. Called at Ferns in evening. Bill worked at Helen Jones’s painting.
