I can hardly control myself. But I missed you so honey. I want you here [with] me
Had to change pens again. This is Mom's. Anything to be different. That's me. but to go on [with] the news. Tonite [Bridgers?] Mom & I went to Washington to get Dad. He's working in McDaniels drug store in Wash. & really likes it swell. It's a larger store & of course the routine is much different. Dad says selling is so much different than at home. He stayed at the hotel the final wk. but now he has a room [with] private bath & all. Much better. He has more regular hours. Always close at 6:00. [Works?] every other [Sun.?] till 12:00. He's [illegible] madly for a house. He & [Mary?] are so [lonesome?] [?] are in Richland & are in [illegible]. I do hope they can get settled soon. Told them there was jus one thing---they had to sure & have an extra room for when you & I come to visit.
