454 November 9 - Friday - 6:45 P.M. Darling: This has been a stinker of a stinking day. To begin with - no mail, then a washer wore thin in the kitchen faucet, and I couldn't get the water turned off, and this evening Wendy seems to have diarrhea. She seems perfectly alright otherwise - lively and not feverish, and ate her supper with gusto. She may be getting a cold, at any rate I'll boil all her milk tomorrow, and cut out the fruits, til I see how she gets along. The washer business was a damn nuisance - I had to turn [pg 2] off the whole water supply, and when I phoned all the plumbers I discovered that none of them could come up, because they were either hunting or having babies. Finally in desperation, I phoned Mrs. Aldrich, and tonight after work, her husband came up, and put in the new washer. You will remember Mrs. Aldrich (Miss Coolidge's niece) - her husband just got his discharge from the Navy. Spoke with Gerry this morning, and she was feeling down in the dumps too. Reni's relief from Okinawa was sent stateside for discharge, leaving Reni temporarily stranded, but he may have been able to get off by now. 10:15 Oh sweety, I'm really wound [pg 3] up in knots tonight - I can't explain why - just a lot of little disappointments and wanting you terribly much. I do try to relax and take things in stride, but every once in a while I go under. I'll snap out of it tomorrow tho, especially if I have some letters from you. Goodnight Tink darling - I love you with all my heart- Bobby
