We had a very nice New Year's Eve. Our first in the new house. Mike, Cannonball, Susy, Johnny, Weaver and Maggie all slept out there. We had dinner and sat in front of the fire and listened to the radio. We all enjoyed it very much.
Dora and Patrick both have scarlet fever. Susy has been exposed. We have our fingers crossed.
Weaver bought the light fixtures for the kitchen and outside front and back doors. We all like them very much, in fact they are very, very pretty.
Jan 5th- We all put in a hard day today. Laid the floor for the septic tank. Johnny and Weaver worked the mixer and hauled, and Maggie was down in the hole. Mike had charge of water.
Just got word that Katie Worn died. From a stroke. We all feel bad because we love Katie. She was sweet and a good friend.
Jan. 11th Sunday- Whitfield and family came to Weaver get started on septic tank walls. Had lunch out there. John was down. Trial going to start.
Monday 12th- Weaver continued working on walls. Very neat and nice.
Still no rain. Weather just like Spring. Water low everywhere.
Patrick and Dora pulled through fever okay. No ill effects. Susy escaped it. Lucky!

Children gather icicles every morning. They break them off and put paper around one end so they can suck on them.
