Hello, Dear,
Haven't run a typewriter for years, so thought I would sit down and write you a sweet little letter and see how many mistakes I could Make--not bad so far, is it3/4 Hey, how come, the key said question mark and I get three-fourths--
Well, sweet, the apartment doesn't seem the same without you, and I'll sure be glad when we're both here together. Went down and bought me another steak for dinner tonight and I really did a swell job of broiling it; it was an 18¢ round steak and I was pleasantly surprised to find it not very tought at all; think this broiler is really OK.
Just went over to Von's and got the tux and it fits swell; I ought to look passable. Also I secured a black tie and the necessary studs and cuff-links, so I am all ready to go, on account of I have a shirt and collar of my own. Oh, yes, also got Von's present to us and guess wht it is-- another set of tablecloth and four napkins--these are pink so now we have just about every color and the week isn't over yet. These seem to be of very nice material and I think you will like them. Bob Moser also has our present purchased and I will get that tomorrow or thereabouts-- it looked like a pretty large package when I saw it.
My sister told me that Mr. and Mrs. Gertz were giving us a set of pillowcases, handmade and everything, so I will pick those up in a day or so. You know, dear, we are really going to have quite a nice assortment of gifts before we get started.
I am really going to have a carful Friday if I take your Aunt Edna and Wava down, on account of I have to bring the radio and tux beside my suitcase, and Bob will have a suitcase too, but I suppose we will manage OK I hope.
Everybody at the Medical School is having lots of fun reminding me that I only have a few days, but they can't pass too soon for me. I am really beginning to get excited. Gee Whiz.
Hope you got everything taken care of such as the physical exam, selling your car, writing me a letter, saving your money, etc. And don't forget to call up Price and Have a chat with him, and tell him black tie and wing-tip collar. However I really am not worrying about a thing except the weather and I just have a feeling that too is going to be swell next week.
All my love,
Bill (Bill)
Bill, Dear -
Are we ever lucky and am I ever thrilled - Here are the presents that awaited me when I got home - a $25.00 check from Aunt Marion and Uncle Roy (In Canada)- A combination Sandwich toaster, grill, and waffle iron from Lillian & Sid, Jessie, Lois and Ethan, Irene, Helen & Warren, Ed and Mary Elizabeth, two lovely bath towel sets from Uncle Dow's sister in Montana, a knife, fork, and spoon from Mrs. Moxley's estate, a knife and fork from Aunt Hetty and Uncle Dow, two beautiful Lenox vases from Agatha, and a picture from Uncle Lloyd - Isn't it wonderful!! - I put the check in the bank which totals $51.10 -
Also, dear, I took part of my physical exam today only the blood test - I was to go back at 4:00 and finish up - but the doctor was delivering a couple of babies - I quit the hospital and went to Dr. Guldagger - one of the best and busiest obstreticians in town - decided it would be better that way - Sooo - I'm to go back tomorrow at 11:00 - The blood test wasn't bad at all - didn't even feel the needle prick - only I didn't look at it at all - The blood was sure a pretty red -
Oh dear, I'm so thrilled, excited, and happy - Slept like the dickens on the train and then couldn't sleep a wink when I got here - It's sure fun not having to work - The weather was fairly nice today - Just think it isn't very long now till the great day - P.S. all my thank you notes are written, too, except to your dad and sister. Why don't you send me their addresses?-
See you Friday -
All my love,
Dotty
