Same holes
(1963 November)
Our phone number will be changed as of the 16th. Instead of MI 7-3282 it will be: 674-3282, Area Code 608. Actually, you put your fingers in the same dial holes only numbers instead of letters.

Tea for me
(1963 October?)
Kiwanis tonight and LL is hoping it won't be Swiss steak again ... I must get my little supper and make tea.
O - tea for me
And me for tea!

Tempest on TV
(1963 October?)
Sunday night we brot our suppers upstairs and watched "The Tempest" - so good. Ann Rose [Meadows] said the first time she saw it was in beautiful colors at Solbergs. Maurice Evans was Prospero.

Recordkeeping
(1963 October?)
I get so nervous thinking of all the records not kept or hiked out, I'm at the point when I simply cannot throw away an old address book. (You'll see when you clean our attic someday.)

The hairdresser
(1963 October 7)
Auntie Mabel [living with caregiver] had been dressed by Mrs. S. in view of our visit and looked fine in lavender sweater. Lorin: How nice you look, auntie. M: Thank you, dear. L: Your hair is so pretty. M: I just had a permanent. The hairdresser fixed it. L: It looks very nice. Well, shall we go upstairs and have our visit? M: No, no. You can't go up there. L: Why not? M: She's asleep. L: Who's asleep? M: The hairdresser.

Roadwork
(1963 October 7)
Your letter caught up with us just as we were about to leave for Milwaukee to visit Daddy's aunts [Mabel & Lee]. We were happy to have a good day and a good car and thot no fly in no ointment, but a gnat anyway in that you never saw so many men tearing up so many roads with so much machinery. I knew how it had got under Daddy's skin when he told Lee there were "hundreds of thousands" of 'em. When we got to Milwaukee, same thing [on city streets]. We are trying to outdo the Romans.
