Still have cold enough that I’ve not much “pep”. Ironed what I had to have to keep us clean over Sunday and that is about all.

My grandmother, Ruth Campbell Smith (1892 - 1972) kept a diary for many years. I am posting her entries from 1925 - 1927 in this blog. Her family included sons Dale (1916 - 2004), Dick (1918 - 1971), Albert (1920 - 1979), and Ned (1923 - 1976), and later daughters Marjorie (1925 - 2010) and Eleanor (1929 - 2011). Her husband was Gilbert (1889 - 1937) and they lived in Indianapolis. I hope you enjoy this glimpse of what it was like to be a housewife and mother in the 1920's.
I'm sooo glad I don't feel the need to iron anything. Who cares about a little wrinkle here or there?
ReplyDeleteSherry is her mother's daughter. There are more important things than ironed clothes. That why I buy things that don't need to be ironed to wear. If it really needs to be ironed, it just hangs in my closet
