Monday Evening 6:45 PM Darling sweety:- Lots to write about - guess I’d better start with getting up at 8:00 this morning - had a good sleep, didn't go to bed til 10:30 last night, and suspect that had something to do with it - Breakfast, and your package- Honey, how a propos - just last night I started reading through my cook books looking for new ideas - so the new addition is doubly welcome - The Canning address book [pg 2] will be the first thing to be tucked into the hand bag I've resolved to carry after ‘W-W’ arrives - You’re going to have a young lady rather than pixilated [i?] to deal with them[?]! but don't expect too much at first!! Cleaned house, washed clothes, and then tackled some ironing - The refrigerator was defrosted, and the kitchen window again measured for a shade - The john seat is promised and bathroom to be inspected by the landlord - The switchboard operator would like KeKo, but only on a permanent basis - She would give him a good home, I know, and wants to take him along [pg 3] to the country this summer - don't know what to do - Polished all our silver including that in the chest, and put what we had been using away, taking out a fresh supply - By doing that every few weeks, it should all wear evenly - Straightened out the linen trunk, and made a list of missing pieces to submit to the laundry- Mother phoned and then I put your tools way, and found the little brush for your lighter - Early in the afternoon took a brief nap, and then trotted out to do some shopping - Your yesterday letter was waiting in the [pg 4] mail box - a pleasant surprise and wasn't I ever happy to have it! There probably won't be anything tomorrow, but am looking forward to Wednesday's letter and news of your trip back to Washington - Had to get ink eradicator, and go to work on ‘The hag’ ‘cause I’d gotten dates mixed about two weeks ago, and everything was confused. Remembered to get J.J. cream and promise to use it. Ordered strawberries and the rest of the paraphernalia for making jam tomorrow - Muz phoned - she had lunch with Steve Golden today - Albert can't get a brief case for [pg 5] you, but when you are here for ‘W-W’ you can get the one you want down at Mall St. - Muz plans to come up Thursday afternoon- Phoned the bank and got our balance, which of today was $83.10 not counting the $15 check I cashed today - that I expect to last til I get back from the hospital- providing everything comes off on schedule- Baked two batches of icebox cookies for you tonight - date and peanut - will mail them tomorrow afternoon - Let me know if there is anything you’d prefer [pg 6] having- ‘W-W’ has been wriggling around a good bit since last night, and I enjoy the company. There seems to be an ‘epidemic’ of girls being born now- I really don't have any preference now- just hope the long awaited is alright upon arrival- A whole day gone by darling - and I did manage to keep busy - your presinks were a big help, and your letter- Am sleepy, but it's too early for bed- will read, listen to the radio, take a shower and then to a good sleep, and I hope dreams of you my dearest - Because I love you so- Bobby
