Laura Davis letters to her husband Lloyd Davis, January-March 1943

you are overseas, then I think you are in this country on manuvers. My toughness is holding out good, so I'll be patient and be in good shape to write letters directly to you that won't have to be forwarded. And no more have been returned to me besides the three I told you about. So I take it they finally figured out a forwarding address for you.
This afternoon after I had a little lunch and had the furnace in good shape to leave I went over to Reds to get the truck battery put into Polly. Polly's wore out. The batteries interchanged and Red & Jack thought that was a good deal for me to do just now as anything. The rent at Chandlers was 50¢ a month.
Then I went downtown and bought some goblets - 8. They are higher, I mean taller, than I had intended to get originally. But I didn't get them hastily as I've been looking for several weeks at all
