Does Clara send the checks to help support their mother? I am sure you explained it somewhere, but I must have missed that post?
ReplyDeleteYes, Clara pays Irene to take care of Mother because she is a teacher in Newburgh which is about 3 1/2 hours away in 2014.
DeleteThanks for answering my question. I do check in regularly, I don't always comment. But, I LOVE this journal that you are sharing.
DeleteAny time! I love that I have a few dedicated readers like you. I have more family diaries & journals to share, but I'm trying to figure out the logistics for 2015.
