Cloudy. I washed, cooked & canned 6 quarts of cushaw. Reba was here. Pearl & Gene Lipps & Val come this evening. Jennings & Elizabeth were here. Lettie Davis was here awhile.
Footnote: Reba is her sister-in-law. Pearl Barkley is a cousin and Gene and Val are her caregivers. Jennings & Elizabeth are her brother and sister-in-law. Lettie Davis is her neighbor who she visited yesterday.
So if she doesn't go visiting, they come to visit her. I think her life was unique as I don't believe people visit that much anymore. Maybe in the country or small towns where they all go to the same church and know everyone and where they live , it is easier to check up on a neighbor. I sure don't have neighbors like that. I don't even take the time to visit the friends that I care about - that is a shame. We should have a "take a pie to a neighbor" day. Or maybe once a week, meet a friend for lunch - everyone is so busy that it is hard to even schedule that .
