I was out shopping with Rose in evening Saturday December 20 Cloudy somewhat most of the day, but mild, tho' not warm enough so but what sleighing remains good, & town crowded with country people all day, not up very early selves, Estelle with me most of A.M. put finishing touches on my dress, After which I cleaned up my room which L_ swept in A.M. but she had callers so didn't get rest chambers & sitting room cleaned up till last of P.M. December 21 Snow in air, with strong wind & seeming quite cold, more mild in P.M. After good nights rest I had slight unconscious spell this morning, but only for a moment, but not feeling very well throughout day, rested & read some, writing to Aunt Angeolina some in P.M. & all eve, Neither Ellery or I out to church, he at office most of P.M. but home in eve.
