Friday
Dear Family,
Hi! I got your (Mom & Dad's) post-cards yesterday. The mail around here is all goofed up I'm not sure why. I guess about half of it was stolen or something. So – if you should send me money send it in check, OK. (HINT) NO – seriously I need to $5 to pay for my portrait. It really looks like me.
Thanks alot for the grapefruit and oranges. They were really good. It's the Horton & Grandma & Grand-daddy that should be thanked I guess. So – if you could for me.
The Republican thing is really getting rolling. Convention is what it is. There is Reagan, Nixon, Rockerfeller [sic], and Romney. Each has about 15 people working for them. The group for Rockerfeller will do your dishcrew. So & So is having a coffee-house. Real Politics! It's really neat (& interesting) The actual convention is next Wednesday. Tuesday nite (of next week) a sate senator is coming to speak.
We got out of classes Wednesday afternoon for a work privilege. A work privilege. Man! We all did jobs outside. It was a very nice day so I enjoyed it pretty much – but a work privilege! I helped wash windows.
Yesterday I started reading This stranger my son. It's written by Louise Wilson. It's about her son who is a schizophrenic. Needless to say I read it almost all afternoon & then on into evening study hall. I finished it this morning about 6:00!! (I got up to study but I read the end of it which was only about 12 pages. You should read it. It's good reading.
This week-end I hope to get Vanished from the library in town. The new one is open! It's about the time near a presidential election & all of a sudden this Washington D.C. attorney & close friend to the president vanishes. Then an F.B.I. agent and a newspaperman also vanish. Have you ever read it? I think Fletcher Knebel wrote it.
Romeo & Juliet is as bad as ever.
Write!
Love,
Roberta
PS Another boy left school this last Monday. He was a senior – I'm not sure what he's going to do at home. Go to school or what.
