I couldn't live at home any while at Ann Arbor unless it was over the weekend. I'm glad you have the apartment satisfactorily rented and hope it continues. You forgot to enclose the clipping about Jeri Reeve and am curious about it. Whatever it is, it is a surprise to me, too. I don't see why we couldn't live on what I make - if we have to, other folks live on less. It will be approximately $275.00 per month less $37.50 for bond and $7.90 for insurance - leaving approximately $230.00 & then pay mess and laundry. As soon as I find out where I go from the school - then you can plan to go with me. But in the meantime you should try to work up some plan to handle or operate the house. I think the best way would be to rent the Carver apartment furnished - just as it is - and then we don't have to worry about moving and storage. The main worry then would be to get some one sufficiently reliable to trust to take care of things. Don't worry about things, Mommie. Because everything will work out OK some way. Just go ahead and do whatever appears best. And usually it works out for the best anyhow. Love & kisses. Daddy
