1980 Roberta's Letter -Jan.21-24

1/21 -24 /80
Monday P.M.
Dear Family,

Was good to talk to you all last night . . . wish you could be here to see the daily changes on the house.  Seems like we are helping them build it . . . bet we are over there more than anyone else!!!  As of today they are locking up the house.  It is suppose to be finished inside as of this Friday . . . and outside as of next Friday.

Jeanne Sanker called me tonight.  I had invited Lowell over Friday night for supper.  Turned out he couldn't come . . . some friend from Ohio had car trouble and he went to their rescue.  But he made the effort to come over and leave a note here at the house.  Guess his mother was afraid I hadn't been told or something.

Thought it was really interesting to read the enclosed article in the Phoenix paper.  Especially after we had done our investigative work in Wickenburg.  Marion looked at the article . . . and her comment was surely H.H. had not paid those kind of prices.  I keep telling her about the good cookies . . . and all.

It rained again today.  We have a full house at work every day that it rains.  Marion stayed home from school to blow her nose -- what a cold she has -- so I used the truck for work.  It worked out fine . . . because I was out last week and some poor lady kept saying that she really wanted a TV . . . so after just four telephone calls located her a used one . . . it works and was for free.

-- Now Tuesday pm - 9:00 PM --

Have just got done doing some reading for my one course -- is is pretty darn technical -- life span development -- life crisis.  Only 10 people in the class --

I had to make 2 calls today -- trying to get these 2 people into Foster Homes -- one a 93-year-old lady who just got out of the hospital -- doesn't (hasn't) eaten right -- or taken medication. -- etc.  but not even willing to consider foster home idea -- Right now living in a one room rental from an old couple -- very interesting.

THANKS!

Love, 
Roberta
