it clear but there is too much snow to make skating. I took my skates up to the garage and left them to be sharpened and then went down to Aunty's for a little while. Aunty was just going to bed and was not {doing?} at all well all day. Dick was down there looking tough and hasn't been out of the house all day but says he feels better, over here Dad. & Enah both have very sore eyes and Enah feels pretty sick besides I think. Frank went down to-night with me and went up to Huby's.

Thursday January 20th

It has drizzled rain all day and every thing as slippery as grease or partly inundated, we have just done chores I cleaned out the chicken dropping boards this morning and this after noon I husked a little corn while Dad. cut some shelves to put up in the clothes room, Frank and I did up the night chores and Dad. went down to Aunty's for tea, he wanted to see how Aunty & Dick were, he hasn't seen Dick since Sunday. Frank saw him up town to-day at noon. To night I went down town and stumbled on the opening meeting of the "Never-ready Club" which consists of Marj. Glad. Law & Essie. They were all knitting or crocheting so I joined and just talked to them and held some yarn for Marj. to wind into balls. I got home about twelve after waiting for nearly two hours in at Hec's for Alan Law.
