Friday February 15th 1885 I did another washing this forenoon and walked over town in the afternoon. I went to see Moore and made arrangements to go to work in the store the first of next month. I was at Hatts a little while. I helped get supper. The folks all went down to Grand-mas to the social. Mother went too. Saturday February 16th 1884 I ironed nearly all the forenoon while Julia cleaned up the house. Aunt Lib was here for dinner Lee took me to town to do shopping and we went down to Aunt Marys for chickens. I sat in Robs room all night. Sunday February 17th 1884 I was busy about the work all the forenoon. I read a little in the afternoon. Rob was out in the back part of the house part of the day. Monday February 18th 1884 I did a large washing and put the plants through the rinse water before noon. I was in Robs room in the afternoon and evening working on my edging. Weather cold and chilly
