January 5 - 7, 1974

Saturday, January 5, 1974

A very nice day. I didn’t get much done. I had Zak here and I tried to keep him entertained. In middle of forenoon Dorothea and Dave came. David feels bad about his father. We had a nice visit from them, also Betty and Walt came. Bill, David went with Walt to Fryeburg to look at a pickup truck Walt is going to buy. They came back and I had lunch for them all. I had made a chocolate cake. Billie went with Lawrence. Jeff comes home tomorrow.

Sunday, January 6, 1975 Jeff came home, started DAYLIGHT time until October 1975. What ideas some people like to send out

It clouded up in PM. Billie went with Lawrence. Bill watched TV. I cleaned up the house, changed the beds, washed windows. Washed clothes, did a ironing, washed kitchen floor. Busy all day. Betty and Walt called. Also Betty and Walt rode the horses. Zak don’t feel too good today. Today Jeff came back from his Christmas vacation at his father’s in Michigan.

Monday, January 7, 1974 10 above when we got up

It was cloudy and cold all forenoon. Cleared in p.m., nice and mild. We are having such a nice open winter so far. It has a March look these days. Today kids went to school before daylight, got home from school before the sun went down. We ate our supper in daylight. Today I helped Betty to get her house all cleaned up today. Betty went to town in p.m.
