Friday November 16th 1923 It was a cold ugly day. Hattie some better. I was down to Fannies awhile. Wrote to Lydia and Ida and did a lot on the bead bag. Saturday November 17th 1923 A nice day. I gave my rooms a going over and walked to town. Took a treatment of Dr Stryker. Did errands and came home with Rob. Busy at home. Sunday November 18th 1923 Late when we had breakfast. Rob took me over to call on Mrs Broadway before church time. Went to Presbyterian church. Home with Rob & Cora. I was with Hattie in afternoon when the nurse was out. Wrote to Winnie and Birdie. a very pleasant day. Monday November 19th 1923 It was a wonderful fine day. Norma did big wash and she and Cora began cleaning in the lower story. I took care of the clothes and did a lot of the ironing. Tuesday November 20th 1923 The girls still busy with the cleaning and got it about done.
