Thurs. 1981 Cloudy to Fair
I washed, canned apples. Curtis Ely was here for dinner. The telephone worker fixed the phone. Jennings was in. Edith and I went to Norton this evening.
Footnote: Curtis Ely is her brother-in-law. Edith is her sister. Norton is a nice size town that is about 15 miles away. Had a lot of nice stores.
My Note: I have to pass this along. Doug, my brother, called last night to give me the latest story about our Mother - who is 95 and lives alone and wears a lifeline around her neck. He had received a call from the Lifeline people yesterday morning saying that Mother had fallen and couldn't get up. So he and Linda rush to her house only to find Mother sitting in the corner on the floor near the back door. She said she was getting the paper out of the back door (the neighbor puts her paper in the door every morning) and somehow she just set down in the floor. Doug said the funny part was that she was sitting there leaned up against the wall and was reading the paper - was already on the 2nd. page. She was not hurt - just shaken a little. Thank goodness she drank all that milk all those years - she has got some good bones. If you feel the urge to call her - she would love to hear from you. She calls me and says I was just lonely and thought I would call. 423-239-4652.
