I went to Folsoms, Howes, McGoverns and Clutes to call and at Clutes got some honey for supper. It was five oclock when I got home. After supper I worked on my edging Friday December 15th 1882 it was an extremely cold day I was busy about the house all the forenoon and soon after dinner went over to town I was at Hatts most of the afternoon as John is sick. It was time to get supper when I came home. I knit a little in the evening Saturday December 16th 1882. We were busy about the house-work most all day. I did a lot of ironing too. Mother rode over to town late in the afternoon and Mollie Stevens came home with her to stay all night. Julia Nipher was here to spend the evening. Weather more moderate than yesterday John is better today. I finished some edging in the evening I have been working at for some time. Weather warmer
