My
Dearest darling, wonderful almost husband.
How is my honey this awfull day? Did you get home O.K
Sun nite? Darling, you were so sleepy I was scared for you to drive
home by yourself.
Maybe I’ll see you tonight if you won that car!! (Ha.Ha.)
Darling, Joyce came up yesterday afternoon. She stayed about 2 ½
hrs. All we did was talk. They had just left Sun. when we go
there. All they did was go down to the depot and get a book for
Wyndall. We just missed them by a few minutes. Honey, I love you.
Last nite I ironed and then played a game of Canasta. Jimmy and I
were partners, against Mom & Sue. We won by almost 2000 points. I
went to bed about 9 The baby cried all nite, and mom was real sick
all nite and Sue got mad at James cause he wouldn’t wake up and help
her with the baby and everything was just a mess!
Dad went out yesterday to sell some stuff and didn’t get home until
1 last nite. So I had to get breakfast this morning and then no one
would get up to eat it. Then Sue got up and just left the baby
cry. Well then I took the baby so it wouldn’t wake mom up and
everything was a mess.,
Then the kids went to school, and I cleaned the whole house up.
It’s about 11 now. Goodness I’ll be glad when we get married or
when Sue & James leave.
Darling how do you like my handwriting on the envelope?
Oh dear I don’t have anything to write about ‘cept I love you and
you already know that but I’ll write it anyhow. I love you, I love
you. (oh, I could write that all day so I’ll close. Darling write
me now. Did you see or are you going to see Billy yet. Please do
and let me know. Honey, I love you. If I had a car I would come
see you tonite.
Well I’ll close for now.
Lots of love & kisses to
My wonderful man
Barbara
P.S.
Do you still love me?
