Dear [Granddaughter],

Thanks for the information and letter. Sounds like you will be a busy person. So glad you like your work.

Hope you had a very nice Thanksgiving Day.

I am staying with a lady I grew up with. She had a broken leg 3 yrs ago and the rod broke so to hospital 9 Nov and had another one put in. So needed some one to watch over and help her. I decided to help out. So not sure how long before I go home to stay. She is doing fine but takes time. She can use walker but best not to be alone. Not a lot to do and not to[sic] far from home 1 ½-2 miles.

Rainy Cool dreary day. I want to sleep. But decided should get this in mail.

Inclosed[sic] find your Christmas Check. Hope you can find something you like.

Hope the lady I’m staying with get well enough so I can go home and quilt a quilt made for my Bishops wife. It’s a double wedding ring. Took a while to put it together. Pretty though. Had hoped to get it finished before Christmas but not sure now.

Take Care but do keep in touch,

Love you

Grandma
