April 4 - 6, 1973

Wednesday, April 4, 1973

Cloudy. We haven’t seen the sun since last Tuesday. What a miserable weather, cloudy, rain, snow and a mess. I went down to Betty’s. We cleaned her shed chamber. Today they have decided to take Jean to Portland Maine Medical Center for test.

Thursday, April 5, 1973 No School, a Bad Snow Storm

This morning when we got up what a mess, snow, the trees were heavy. All phone and light wires were heavy with a lot of snow. Schools were called off. I went down to Betty’s today, we done the bureaus and the closets upstairs. In the night last night the electric power went off. Betty got her chickens in. Today the power went off too. Gordon up today. He and Billie done some measuring for a cellar door to go downstairs to build a bedroom down there. But couldn’t get the right height. We may build one outside on the end of the house. It cleared off some about supper.

What a mess. This was an awful looking day, snow melted a lot though. Kids back-to-school. I called at Betty’s but didn’t stop. Bill and I to town. I washed, ironed, washed windows, did a dite of cooking. Busy all day, watched a few programs. Gordon and Sal brought Jean to their home today from Hicks Nursing Home. She isn’t at all good. Betty off somewhere today.
