DECEMBER 31, 1945
As always, it’s extremely difficult
to believe that another year has been
filed away as past history. And what
a year it has been too: - the end of
both wars and the atomic bomb
alone are tremendous events, leaving
aside the other things in World and
National history ---- with many transitions
in my own life too.
This was a holiday from work and
so Mother and I drove Dad to work
and went to see “Strange Affair of Uncle
Harry” and “Shady Lady” – then a Chinese
lunch and home.
This eve, Glory, Irene, and Edith came
over for an informal pajama party
introduction to The New Year. We sat
around with eggnogs and cuba libres
and pulled Valentine snappers at mid-
night. The novel approach, but pleasant fun!
And so it ends!
