Jan. 2. Sat.J.W. has gone - to be married Wednesday -
& J.G. is very
fussy & it has been a busy day. Tonight I
staid home - sewed, figured - bath & bed at 10, sleep at 1!
Jan. 3. Sunday
A lovely balmy day. Thermometer about 60 this noon! Got my bicycle
out to clean, but decided to let M.&
F. do it. Rode down to Mary's, to show, & see pictures
and then went to Ned's & had a
visit. Rose came in later. Found
Theo & the Behn's here when I returned, looking at my
pictures. After dinner, which was rather late, I went to Mary's & we walked
to Lura's. Found her blue &
Mrs. B. with an ulcerated tooth!
Didn't stay long. Went up to Matie's
& found her in a charming house-sacque & she showed us her
beautiful silver presents (from "Bob" & others.)
and then took us up stairs to look at silks, handkerchiefs & lingerie.
She gave me some stunning pink ribbon (for a belt & bow which
she made -) and her "man" picture, and gave Mary some pretty red Turkish slippers.
She invited me to be a bridesmaid (Mary's going to) but I declined -
& also invited us up to a beefsteak supper next Thursday night!
We came home before six. I read, wrote & lunched.
Jan. 4. Monday
It poured tonight - but I went to gym. Edith
was there, but not Ned & Rose. Helen was
very much interested in my account & Matie Arnold's wedding arrangements.
Edithwalked across the bridge with me - In the
rain - I bought a new coat today - at Carroll's - quite pretty -
1897.
