December Friday 24 1926
Had a busy day selling extra cream and milk for Christmas and received two Xmas boxes on milk route. At night Tom, Jimmie, Roscoe, and I did some Christmas shopping when we drove "Dollie" to town. Home about twelve o'clock.
Saturday 25
First Xmas parcel I opened contained a dandy sweater and a snap of Jean from Jean. Home from town at 11.30. Roscoe helped me wash up in the dairy and we drove the truck up home for dinner. Had a queer feed and came back early to milk then went back up again for Supper. There were 26 of us for tea and we had a great time. Some wonderful dances with Jean. Took nurses to car on our way home. "Santa Claus" was very good to me.
Sunday 26
A very quiet morning in Paris. After I had the bottles washed in afternoon I drove up to Jeans, helped her milk, and had a feed of oysters afterwards. Finished the best Christmas I ever had with my head snuggled up in Jeans lap in front of the fire place. Eleanor and Melville came home with me.
December Monday 27 1926
Rather a busy day getting things squared around after the holiday. A lonely time for me after spending such a nice time with Jean the two days previous. Had a real sleep at night. Bade Jimmie farewell when he left Bendemere and sailed away to Toronto.
Tuesday 28
Roscoe and I attended Marjorie McCrows dance at night. McKinnons Orchestra furnished the music but there was such a crowd there one could hardly hear the music let alone find room to dance. However I had a few nice dances with Jean and the best part of all was the drive home together in the wee small hours. Rolled into bed at almost five o'clock after driving Roscoe and Eileen home.
Wednesday 29
Felt fine after only a little over an hours sleep in the morning when we initiated our new bed room. Eleanor Edwards called up and invited me to a party on Thursday night after I had gone to dreamland at 8.40 P.M.
