Snow covers the ground and hangs to the branches of Trees and Shrubs. The air is frost laden making a beautiful picture of Winter. It is freezing cold, roads cut into ruts and chug holes froze hard. It is bad for the tires of Cars. Frank had to walk over to drive the cattle out of the Barley field. It is bad for Frank to have to prowl ground in the bad weather.
Mary did the dishes and has gone to town for the day. Her throat is better. Mine is easier but it awakens me each night and I have to gargle and doctor it. Mary wore her new boots. They are fine for this kind of weather. Several have bought Old time high top shoes. Stores at Clinton want to sell for Pioneer days on April 19-20. Scripture reading Romans 12:9-16, Psalm 34:5
Dad bought 20 head cattle at Clinton Sale. My throat and lungs are much worse today. I almost freeze when wind strikes me in room where there is no fire as I walk toward the kitchen fire. My fever must be high.
Today is Jack's birthday, also Betty Lou's. God bless their dear hearts with choicest Blessings.
I pasted my pretty Christmas, New Year, Get Well and Valentine cards in a large album. There are hundreds of them in 5 albums. Mary spent evening in Clinton. I wrote Essa Simmons today.
