September 9, 1978

This morning I read and helped Daddy and then I went to Goulds to look at books and do some reading. When I got back Amanda came and we went to the library together. I lost my card so I took Bobby’s After lunch I made peanut butter brownies, ordinary brownies, and a mess. After supper I saw ‘Masterspy’.

My mother just told me that she happened to bump into Amanda’s father while getting her tyre fixed (I’ve skipped the long story about my 2-year-old niece trying to help and my mum’s friend babysitting her). Amanda has multiple sclerosis. Very sobering.
