Thursday, May 17, 1973

It was raining this morning. It cleared late and I went down to Betty’s while she was mowing lawns. I will work for her each Thursday to pay for my new beds. Bill got Betty’s garden ready for her dahlias. He also fixed his garden. It has been nice since it cleared off. The doctor is not sure about what caused the bad place on Zak’s arm. Also Billie’s Dr. said he didn’t find anything from Billie’s tests that showed any tumor, ulcer or malignant.

It rained so hard all day. Bill and Betty papered the new room. We washed the rug in the living room. Betty did it. Bill down town and got his eyes examined. Billie took me to town shopping. Billie isn’t working. He isn’t feeling too good and discouraged.

Saturday, May 19, 1973 slept in the new room tonight, Betty got her new rug from Mrs. Allen

Mostly sunny. Busy all day. Betty and Walt up here most of the day. They put the rug downstairs in the new room. It looks very nice. I made some rolls, baked beans. Lloyd called in a.m. We got the house straightened out after taking the rug up. Kim up here in p.m. Betty and Walt bought their new rug that Winnie Allen had braided for her. It was beautiful. Cathy here playing with Carmen this weekend. They called Billie to come in and worked Monday to help clean up from the fire damage. Bruds folks here this weekend. Nola Raye got her nurses cap in ceremonies at the Mercy Hospital.
