But I have smelled paint again and am in the throes of decorating the cupboad for towels, blankets, etc. which sits in the sewing room. Today I painted the inside of the upper half blue (2-1/2 hours). When I finally get all the ground work done, I'll decorate it. I got out the Peter Hunt book Skip gave me in 1954 and out of that will come something, I hope. Lorin wants me to paint MM
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.

She puts both feet tight together and leaps. I think it very dangerous and put a stop to it, but he thinks it should be commemorated to posterity. Instead, I think I'll draw her on a bank with her feet in a stream of water.
