Saving...
Tuesday November 20th 1906 It was 22 years today since Charlie & Ida were married. I feel some better today. I am fixing my black sateen skirt. Fred and Mollie came out to supper and spent the evening. It is raining a little. Wednesday November 21st 1906 It snowed all day. I was scarcely out of the house. Will busy most of the time taking care of the stock. I do not feel quite so well. I did some sewing and got the meals. Thursday November 22nd 1906 The sun shone brightly today and melted some of the snow. I was busy about the work and did some sewing on carious little things that needed fixing. Will busy about the place most of the time. Friday November 23rd 1906 Will churned for me. I was busy all forenoon with the regular work. We got up so late. The I had dinner so Will went to town at 12.37. I was fixing some mittens for Will in afternoon and evening. It was bright today and the snow melted some. I feel better and hope to get down town tomorrow. I have not been out of the yard since last Sunday afternoon.
