Had breakfast about 9.00. We had doughnuts, rice with gravy, coffee.
I continued straightening up my belongings. At the pavilion from 12.00 to 2.00 I finished the grid on paper. No one helped but some looked at what I was doing and showed interest.
Showered and shampooed my hair.
Sewed on my skirt. The other residents of the cottage were interested in it. Mark was at home today. Edith was granted permission not to send him to school on Sundays. The young women who formerly lived in the cottage have left three steamer trunks. One is under bed of Lillian Taylor and myself. Consequently I had to keep a box under Mary Canada’s bed. Another of their trunks is at the foot of Betty Moore’s bed where a trunk of hers is to be moved. Edith thinks they don’t intend to move them until forced. She thinks they are still purposely aggravating her.
I had dinner at 5:00. No lines were permitted probably because of the medical guests, but I had only a short wait until being served. I had curried smoked fish on rice with hot sauce.
Ollie Smith had told me she had been given a pair of my pants by the laundry. I stopped by the baby’s nursery where she lives. I held the baby, who is Nancy Lake’s great grandson while she got the pants for me. Ollie is the Wideman girl who stayed in the Temple when the others left.
One of the men who has been coming to my class and seemed to be showing some interest in me asked me yesterday if he can come by my cottage and show me some pictures. I consented telling him I would be home about 6.00. I made the mistake of telling him I usually did not go up to the entertainment on Sunday evening. I intended to make some other excuse after an hour or so but he didn’t come.
Other residents of the cottage were home. I continued with my sewing. I planned to go to the pavilion about 8.00 to see whether “The Parallax View” was being shown tonight but I heard an announcement it wouldn’t be shown. Musical auditions would be held instead.
I sewed until 10:00 when those in the cottage went to bed.
