stayed at Aunty's for dinner. Frank went home right after dinner but I stayed down all afternoon and evening and had tea at Aunty's and went to church with Aunty Alice & Dad. I spent the after noon and evening with Marj. Dad. did all the chores and came down to Aunty's for tea. He took Molly for a sleigh drive this after noon but the cutter didn't slip very well. Fine day.

Monday December 8th

We haven't done much to-day but chores. Frank has been very busy all day getting the house slicked up in preparation for Enah's & Tid's homecoming to-night. He has made a fine housekeeper and cook but looks forward to chucking the job to-morrow. Dad. and I drove down town with the cutter as soon as we got the night chores done but had to wait around town for nearly an hour as the seven o'clock car was very late Enah & Tid were aboard and Dad drove them home and I walked. Frank had a good tea already for us when we got home and I was ready for it. Enah and Tid both had a good time in Toronto but were glad to be home.

Tuesday December 9th

It turned very mild during the night and rained all morning and has been very spring-like all day. I spent most of the day doing chores and Dad. and Frank fixed up a place to hang pigs as we expect to kill to-morrow. Frank and I went down to a J.F.I.A. meeting to-night in the Sunday school. It was supposed to be an agricultural evening and in the hands of that commitee but as Lloyd & George Ryerse were the only other members present we adjourned and Frank and I went down to Auntys for the remainder of the eveing.
