March 20 - 22, 1975 Party for Billie's Birthday


Thursday, March 20, 1975

A very heavy rain all day and until into the evening. Our cellar had a flash flood in it this morning backed up from the ditch. We worked on it all day. Then at night Walt came up, he, Billie and Bill got the rug out of the bedroom onto some props to dry out if possible. What a mess. Betty down to Dawn’s. They went to Portland to see Dawn’s mother in the hospital. I had Zak. I made two chicken pies and a large chocolate layer cake. Betty had a chicken pie and we did. Also I gave her some of the cake. Esther over here for supper and evening.





Friday, March 21, 1975 windy, no school teachers meeting

A very nice sunny day, but awful windy. I done my regular work. Washed windows, made a cake, done the dusting, got ready, went to town with Betty and what a time had with the kids. There wasn’t any school today. In p.m. I worked on my scraps. Carmen came up and stayed all night. Betty made me a tuna fish casserole.



Saturday, March 22, 1975

Well it has been a cloudy day. I was busy all day. Billie went with Lawrence. Bill didn’t do anything, took a long nap and watched TV. Carmen called. I cooked, cleaned up the house, washed floors. Got a steak supper for Billie’s 44th birthday. In evening we had ice cream and cake and the Horton family all came up. Billie got money and nice useful gifts and pretty cards. It began raining about dark.
