Saturday, December 25, 1948 - Christmas Day. Uncle Brock kept us awake so much last night that we didn't get up and have breakfast until about 9:30. Rex went to see Jim this Morning. He is better. We ate our dinner about 4 o'clock this afternoon. We ate breakfast so late we didn't get hungry at noon. We all got a good many presents & the trees are so pretty covered in ice & the sun has been shining but it has been a sad Christmas to all except Robert. Lin & Jessie usually spends Christmas Day with us so we have missed her. Uncle Brock isn't any better.

Sunday, December 26, 1948 - I sure have had a headache this Morning. Rex went to Bessie's Store & got some aspirins. I got Breakfast then I took 2 aspirins & went to bed a while. Mr. Jones came a little while this Morning. Rex went to see Jim this afternoon. He is still better. I felt so bad I went to bed a while this afternoon & took a nap. I have felt bad all day. I didn't like going to Sunday School this Morning. I sent the bus money by Rex to Mr. Staton. Rex & Robert went to Dock's & they met the bus as they came home. Lin came this afternoon. He says he don't see how Uncle Brock can live many days. Listened to the Radio tonight.
