April 15 - 17, 1975 New Stove

Tuesday, April 15, 1975 BRAND-NEW STOVE

A nice day, a little milder. It got cloudy in p.m. Today we cleaned Fern’s bedroom. Betty was sick with a cold. Lloyd was his grouchy and ugly as could be. He hollered at Zak and Fern, he found fault with everything. We came home as early as we could because Betty didn’t feel at all good. I had a brand new Frigidaire electric stove come today from McIver’s Electric. It is a golden harvest (yellow) very pretty. We like it real well.

A quite nice day, milder temperatures. We can begin to see a few rocks and one or two bare places down in the field tonight. Betty feels better, but her head or sinuses is filled up. She got quite tired at Ferns. We did Fern’s bathroom and dining room, kitchen and back hall. Zak stayed at Esther’s today or this p.m. while we was at Ferns. Lloyd want so bad today. Kimmy to scouts or brownies. I did my ironing early this morning. Bill painted today. This evening Esther and Cliff called also Dorothea came up to make a call.

Another nice day. Quite a few bare spots down through the field today. Betty and I down to Fern’s early and we cleaned Ferns living room. Came home at 11:30. Went to town in p.m. Betty took Zak down to get his glasses. I made a pie, cooked a piece of meat. Bill done some more painting. I like the stove very much. Walt doing a lot of soil testing jobs. Today the Freedom Train has been in Portland to start the Bicentennial celebration. It will leave tomorrow
