12- Sunday night [10/1] Oct. 1 - 1943 “Drove out to the Flatirons - the trees are glorious.” Darling to date I've mailed two packages, a birthday card and eleven letters - 9:15 My dearest darling:- Have just finished reading ¾ of a book that I got from the library “Big Family” by Bellamy Partridge, entertaining but that's about all. I've had a fire in the fireplace and the heater is on, because I want to take a bath; and hate a cold house. Wendy is making little noises in her sleep- She looks so cunning - long curly eyelashes, and hair stuck up in funny little wisps. I've been thinking tonight of the wardrobe I’d like to have when you get back, or when I got to you - But only visions of pink chiffon and lace go dancing through my head. Just think, darling, I may be all of 25 before we’re together again - hate to think of it - but you won't mind because I shall be more of a woman. Bev was to come to dinner tonight, but phoned at 4:00 to say she was going out with some friends at the club. That [pg 2] gal knows where the grass grows greenest. It's probably a good thing tho, cause now I have the urge to go out and meet other people. Guess I'll take my bath now and hop into bed with the Reader Digest and a glass of sherry. Goodnight Warren, my darling - hold me in your dreams- Bobby Monday 10/2 12:45 P.M. My darling: Wendy and I are out on the patio waiting for a batch of brownies to bake themselves. This afternoon Bev is driving me over to Monterey, and I am going to sign for [?] They should be here in Carmel tomorrow, and I hope to have them uncrated at the Express Office. This is another beautiful day, Wendy has been out all morning, while I've been cleaning house and washing clothes. I did a few of your things and will send them to you shortly. I called the May's friend Mrs. [?] this morning - she sounded very pleasant, and asked me to tea just as soon as her husband and 6 year old daughter recover from the flue. Wendy is so cunning - guess I'll try to take a picture or two. Lots of love from both your sweeties- Bobby
