Mother has finally got everything "ship shape," Home Sweet Home - there is only one thing wrong, mother & Willa will be leaving for Iowa in a few days and daddy and I will be on our own. It's really going to be kinda strange and lonesome but necessary.

Our old friends Billie & Wally called and asked if I was still going to baby sit their children while they go to the American Legion Convention, daddy said yes and that he would come over in the evening and stay overnight with us. While I was over there the "Fleet" came back to San Pedro & Charlie had five days shore leave before they would be leaving for Bremerton, Washington. We took in a couple "shows" and just visited. It's back to letter writing.

It wasn't long after we went back home that the "school bells" started ringing and I'm on the last lap - "A Senior B". Daddy will take me to school and I'll walk home with the gang and dad will pick me up at Betty's house after school.

After daddy took me to school he went home and then to the WPA gardens to work, earning credit to trade for foods. Some od the neightbors in our neightborhood would get together twice a month at different homes and play cards and later have refreshments. Daddy and I attended a couple of these get-togethers.

I know dad was missing mother and from mothers letters she really needed dads help with grandpa and things around the house.

One Sunday when Dan & LaVer came over
