Saturday, December 1, 1962

Didn't get up until 8:20 - Fixed pancakes for breakfast - done dishes - made beds - took a shower & got ready - we went to the S&H Green Stamp Store - got a table & a chair for Billy for Xmas - 4 books. Had to stand in line a long time. Home at 1:00 - ate lunch - I was doing dishes when Billy brought in a letter from Dad saying that Mom went to the hospital last Tuesday morning - She was real sick - they started giving her hipo's & feeding her through the veins - said it is a hernia but they can't operate until the infection is cleared up. Really was a shock to us. I laid down & got Billy asleep - then wrote a letter to Mom & sent a card - cleaned the kitchen, living room & hall. Sewed the facing on my brown dress. Gave Billy a bath tonight - polished shoes - rolled top of my hair - popped corn - wrote Mom & Dad a long letter.
