Monday, May 25, 1981 new cow, mostly Guernsey, Memorial Day

 

Another very hot day. I done a big wash. I made cupcakes and stuffed eggs. Bill didn’t do anything, too hot. Billie had another cow come today to help eat the grass in the pasture. Jersey and Guernsey and maybe something else in her, a mixed breed. A nice young cow. She had been with cattle that had horns, the others did. She was crowded from her food and was poor. At night we went to a cookout at Betty’s. Charlene, Tom, Fern, Bill and I. Billie ate here at home, he was hungry and it was so late by the time Betty got home from Charlene’s sale shop. Carmen having a slumber party tonight.

Another nice very Hot day. It seems good to have this good sunny and hot weather. The gardens are very dry, need some showers. I did a big ironing. Also I washed the things I got at sale at Charlene’s. Also ironed those after supper. I cleaned up the house, prepared supper. Washed floors. Bill and Kimmy done some fishing at the lake while down at the Barnaby’s camp. After supper they, Kim, Zak and Carmen went up to Stearns Lake (Pond)  fishing. Betty and I went up for a minute, too many mosquitoes. Billie and Dorothea went to Norway, she got her cupboard.
