December 17
A lovely Sunday as I was awakened
by a letter from Bill (Special Xmas
delivery) which was really wonderful. I
miss him so much and am hoping as
much as possible that he’ll go overseas
via New York when I’m there next week; he
still seems to think there’s a chance of it.
The pledges gave a Tea this afternoon,
which seemed to be a success. We ate
leftover refreshments for supper and
then Elaine, Beth and Joy and I went
to Bruton to hear the choirs sing
Handel’s “Messaiah”. It was very long –
but lovely.
We had a surprise birthday party for
Jean Peter this Evening - her mother sent
down a big box of food.
I called Mother and Dad!
Eleanor gave me a painting of Bruton,
which she had done, for Xmas. I’m so pleased.
