1980 Tuesday Cloudy 60 degrees. I baked a cake and 2 pies. Rosemary went up to spend part of the day with Janice. Ralph and Lucille come for lunch. Pearl, Val & Gene come this afternoon. Jennings, Elizabeth, Radious & Walter come tonite.
Footnote: Rosemary is her daughter who is visiting from New Mexico. Janice is her younger daughter. Lucille is her sister from Michigan and Ralph is Lucille's husband. Pearl Barkley is her cousin who lives a few miles away and Val and Gene are the people who live with Pearl and take care of her. Jennings is her brother and Elizabeth is his wife. Radious and Walter are her neighbors.
1981 Wednesday Fair coolish. Stell Kelly was in. Millard & I visited Alean Reasor and Grant Morefield's this eve. Got some fertilizer & seeds. To prayer meeting. Campbell Slemp died.
Footnote: Stell Kelly is her friend and fellow church member. Millard is her husband. Alean Reasor is her cousin who was married to Joe Reasor - a first cousin, I think. They lived in Stickleyville, Va. if I remember correctly. I remember going to visit them. They had a couple of daughters that were about my age. For the life of me I can't remember their names - but I can see their faces and I remember just how their house looked inside and outside. The girls room was upstairs and it was full of beds and furniture. The house didn't have much closet space so the girls clothes were hanging everywhere. I think Grant Morefield was an old friend and neighbor. Campbell Slemp - I know the name and where he lived but I don't remember much about him.
Snowing here today and Hope is out of school so she is here with me and we have some craft projects to work on today. She is watching a new Looney Tunes movie and sitting on the arm of the sofa writing in her journal right now. The sofa is empty but she prefers the arm, I guess.
