(1962 January 10)
The cold is creeping in everywhere today; so I have built myself a fire, moved my chair in front of it, put my toes on the hearthstone, and am nicely browning, writing notes, almost ready to be turned!
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.
