Dear Shelby,

Such cute note paper & a pretty stamp.  I never seem to be able to get any like that.

You're more than welcome & I didn't mind fixing Jack's shirt.  After all, that's what grandmothers are for!

Your Mom called this morning just as I was getting up.  I was lazy and slept until almost 7:30!

You asked me about Xmas.  Well, there's really not anything much I need, living in the apartment.  I am sending you a list you can pick something from.  You must give me some ideas about Jack.

I go for a flu shot Monday and a dental check-up on Tuesday.  Harold goes back into the hospital Thursday so I think I will have to drive him over.  He is having his rupture repaired.  It is in his navel.

Well hon, there isn't much news .  I'll get this in the mail, so let me hear from you.  

Hope you get your furnace done this weekend.

Love always,
Grandma

Dear Shelby,

Thanks for the nice letter.  I should have written sooner, but I didn't have any stamps.  It rained most of the week & I didn't go out to get any.

I'm glad I could fix your sweater.  It is very pretty.  Ruth  has one like it!

I take Harold to the eye doctor tomorrow.  They gave their car to Beckie.  I guess Jill (her granddaughter) will drive it though. I took Ruth grocery shopping on Friday.  

Are you still working on your place on the weekends?  It will soon be too cool to go.

It was down to 37F this morning.

Mrs. Wallace's niece is going to China for 4 weeks visit.  They went to Australia last year.  I don't think I would want to go to China.  They have been to just about every place else.  

Well hon, I guess I will close here as there really is not much news here.  So take care and let hear from you.  Give my love to Jack!

Love always,

Grandma
