this is sort of a rambiling letter - I seemed to
have typed whatever popped into my head - I started this about 10AM -
it is now after one - Margo and Cynthia came by axix for a visit -
they have now gone home for naps - when they're home Margo has Cynthia
rest every afternoon for at least an hour - Cynthia loves books so she
generally takes some to bed with her - sometimes she does go to sleep -
the nursery is about ready - repainted, crib etcetera brought up from
storage in the basement - Margo made new curtains for the window - all
three of my children 1 Margo makes most of Cynthia's dresses - Marian
SEW
even made down parkas for her children and David not only washes, irons
and mends his clothes he took sheets and made curtains for Christophers
room - all three are excellent cooks - certainly didn't get any of
these talents from me -- the arthritis in my back is so much better
I've stopped taking the medicine (naprosyn) David's doctor in LA pre-
scribed -I'm sure some of my backaches are caused by stress and pos-
ture - wish I could find a good osteopath - remember that woman (years
and years ago) who use to come to 219 and give us treatments- she al-
ways wore a shirt, tie, knickers, and jacket - I dont remember her
name
this as I said at the beginning is to let you know we
think and speak of you often -- take care and stay well
Love from all
Chris
Tuesday
I use Margo's address as my mailing address - this room is alright
for awhile but if I find an apartment I'll move ---
