December 1 - 4, 1972

Friday, December 1, 1972 Betty got permanent, nice sunny day, cold

Our bare ground all gone again this morning. About 10 inches of snow. Bill plowed here and at Walt’s. No SCHOOL. I stayed with the kids while Betty went to June’s and got a permanent. In evening Betty, Esther and Cliff called. This afternoon Lloyd was in a mishap. Lisa Smart’s horse balked and ran into Lloyd’s car and put him into the ditch. No one hurt.

Saturday, December 2, 1972 Sunny when we got up

A pretty nice day. I did not bake beans. I done regular work, worked on Christmas things. Lloyd called. I washed kitchen floor. Bill plowed snow and took me to town in late p.m. Then I went down to Betty and Walt’s for supper and to babysit, while they went down to Dawn’s. Good report from Judd. They like him very much and want to keep him.
