Aug 10 Sunday Sylvia was at 99.5 today. She felt well and was in and out of bed. Lillian played some monopoly with her and I played her anagrams. Otherwise we watched television.
Aug 11 Sylvia was normal today and out of bed. Lil got her an apron to embroider which made her happy. In the afternoon they went down together. Jeffrey Farnol is dead at 74.
Aug 12 Sylvia drew "New Friends for Susan" - Yoshiko Uchida, "Cherries are ripe" D. Reynolds, "The Trolley Car Family" E. Clymer and "Pippi Long Stocking" A. Lindgren. Trygvie Lie was criticized as a discharged UN employee was awarded $6,990 back pay.
Aug 13 Sylvia still takes her doll to bed. It usually falls off some time in the early morning with a wail.
Aug 14 We were delighted to hear from Eugene that he was having a good time. He expects to make 1st Class Scout if he can learn to swim.
Aug 15 Sylvia was second in the intermediate nok-hockey tournament at St James and won a beautiful "Sunken Treasure".
Aug 16 Lil and Harry came over and took Sylvia to stay with them for several days. Dick Marlowe of Buffalo pitched the first perfect game in thirty years against Baltimore.
Interesting that Dad didn't note that it was a minor league game.
My father started a "diary" in 1945 (more accurately, a journal, covering both family and current events), and I'm going to see if this is a decent way to publish it. Since I'm doing it as a blog, to get to the beginning of the journal, you have to go to the beginning of the blog.
