Dear Shelby,

Yes, my stationery was really wild.  Hallmark sent me a few samples.  That's where the pretty ones came from.  I need stationery.  Can't remember to buy it!

Mrs. Wallace is getting new carpeting this morning.  Her furniture is out in the hall.  She just bought a new sofa.  She is 89.

I'm sure your house will be lovely in those colors.  

I really appreciate the pictures.  They really are making some headway.

I have about 24" done on the afghan.  It looks okay.  I hope it is right.  I also have started on the picture.  

I must go to the market today.  I really don't  need much.

I have about 50 more pages to read in the Kennedy book.  I can't believe Ethel is that kind of person.  But again, I don't know much about her either.

I need a haircut.  I was going out today to get it done but I slept too late to get an early start (8:00).  They get so busy during the day.  I'll go Monday.

Our weather is just lovely - a little nippy in the morning though.

Do you have your cactus in the sun?  I have mine in the hall window.

Well hon, not much news here so write when you can.  Love to  you & Jack.  Thanks again for the pictures.

Take care.

Love always,

Grandma
