Fair warm
Dale and Dick went to Hoffmeisters. I painted the places in the kitchen Gilbert left for me. Behind the stove, under the sick, etc.

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 hope Gilbert moved the stove for Ruth! (I'm assuming it was one of those awesome cast-iron stoves.) Or that it was far enough from the wall for her to get behind easily.
