I had another 8 hours sleep.
It rained all day. In the morning I worked on my journal.
Wrote a draft of a letter to senators and representatives about the Temple for Wanda’s signature, as I have already sent a similar one in my name.
Went to the Temple for lunch. Took my cart.
Saw Patti Chastain and Barbara Hoyer.
Went to the Haight Food store for fruit, dates, eggs (items needed for the next few days). Took a bus back to the Temple. Then brought my suitcase and groceries home in the cart.
Saw Laurie Efrein whose mother is visiting her now. She is staying in a hotel downtown, having told Laurie, “Don’t worry about housing me, I have reached that period in life where comfort is important and I have reserved a room in a hotel downtown.” Laurie said she could use some help in entertaining her.
Read the newspaper and had a snack.
Went to bed at 12.00. At first I was very sleepy. Then I couldn’t sleep. There was a brawl outside among the patrons of a bar. It lasted a long time. Men were knocking each other down on the wet pavement. Finally the police came. I read an hour between 3.00 and 4.00 until I finally got to sleep.
