practiced from eleven to twelve
thirty and then went to my
music lesson. I got back about
three and rushed to get ready
to go to a linen shower for
Marit. It was at a tea
room and we all had tea
and delicious little cakes.
Marit opened all her presents,
most of them were hand towels.
I gave her two little doilies;
it was all I could find. She
opened them last; it means
something when you'er present
is opened last, but I don't
know quite what. When we
came back we, Ruth, Sally,
and I, went to eat with
Mary Ellen. It was so very
nice of her and had a wonderful
time to say nothing of the
delicious dinner; so different
from what I'm used to. We
went to the D.G. house afterwards
