April 16, 1981 Aunt Estelle wrote

Thurs  Fair to cloudy  1981    I washed.  We have Wendi.  The men came at 10 o'clock to build the cabinets, and I don't like them.  Jennings came and hung a picture and curtains.


Footnote:  Wendi is her granddaughter and is probably on spring break.  Jennings is her brother who lives nearby. 



my footnote:   I forgot to write yesterday and remembered just before I went to bed at 1:00AM today.  I am keeping Hope (Rachel's daughter) this week as she is on spring break.  She is 9  years old now and very busy.  She has done a little of everything this week and she brings a room full of her toys to my house.  She won't stay all night with me - says she got scared one time and can't get over it.  It is 10:15 am and she is eating mint chocolate chip ice cream.  She is always hungry at my house.  I remember being hungry always at Mamie Shuler's house.  She always had day old biscuits in her cabinet and they were so good with homemade strawberry preserves.    She has learned a couple of new embroidery stitches this week.  Last year I taught her to crochet.  She is a quick learner and that makes it fun to teach her.  We are having Easter at Leah's house on Saturday.  They all have other places to go on Sunday.   I am busy working on new things for my next show in Louisville next weekend.  We have had some awful weird weather this week.  33 degrees this morning.  I hope it warms up before next weekend as I will be outside in a tent for the weekend.
