Thursday January 8th 1903 Another cold day though the wind not as high. Mollie took her dinner. We did the work and I sewed on my dress. knit in the evening. Friday January 9th 1903 Weather still cold. We did churning and other work and I sewed all my spare time. Mollie went home tonight. Saturday January 10th 1903 The weather some better. We girls did baking and sweeping in the forenoon and Will and I went down town after dinner. I got the trimmings for my brown dress, was at the Dr office. We stopped at home to leave some butter as we went over. I sewed carpet rags in evening.
