Flashlight
(1989 August 25)
I was in Coast to Coast today buying a flat flashlight which I can slip under the davenport cushions in case I am on it when it storms and I need a light.

Literacy
(1989 September 6)
I called the woman who is organizing teachers for reading class [to volunteer] and was told there are about 3 to 4000 in Richland County who cannot read. They may read and write their names etc. but not to read the paper, book etc. She was very glad I called and did not press me, so must have plenty of younger workers. The method is phonics. Well - that's that.

Gravy
(1989 September 6)
Things are going well here with some problems. Karen [new schoolgirl] threw out that nice brown gravy left in the pan after you take out the pork roast. I was intending using it for chop suey. That's out. Now plain boiled potatoes.

Babel
(1989 November 2)
[P.S.] Still on the service [for All Souls Day] - everyone was asked to read or say the names of the departed out loud at the same time. Mine and Jean's and perhaps others were read by the priests. I kept thinking they were in a hurry for their suppers. All at once--

Uncle Max
(1989 November 2, All Souls Day)
I had handed in my list [of departed relatives to be prayed for]. For a long time I could not think of Uncle Max, my mother's brother. Suddenly in the living room I said right out loud, "MAX!" Hadn't thought of him in years.
