From 1976 desk journal

Monday

Pitiful nail driving performance in morning trying to help John "box" house #39.

Yancie's first day in nursery and Brenda's first day back at work. Yancie seemed all right at her return home - except for being hungry and a bit cranky. But Brenda was in foul shape... guilt, psychosomatics, and pain from unused muscles. She finally had to take a pain pill. She went to bed at about 9:00 PM and slept until alarm went off at 5:10 AM/.
