Well I feel some better today than I did last Sunday. Just got through writing to Virginia and Laurence’s girl. I’m so far behind with my letters I don’t know if I’ll ever catch up.
I haven’t heard if I get to come home with the bunch that leaves Wed or not. I hope not if Virginia can’t be there. I would just as leave wait a week as long as I know they are coming.
I have a letter from Selma and Lois also Bill Morgan and Aunt Rinnie.
I have to press my work cloths so I have something clean to wear tomorrow. We can send laundry away tomorrow so I won’t have to wash tonight.
We had a good dinner today, mashed potatoes and baked chicken. It would have been lots better if it had been cooked at home with a little more seasoning. It sure is a nice day here, but plenty hot.
I guess I’m going to get out of walking so much. Yesterday the Charge of Quarters came in and said I was to report to the Orderly room. I didn’t know what was up so I went over and saluted Capt Winders and said Pvt Slaymaker reporting sir. He ask me some questions about what I did in civilian life. When he got through he said Pvt Slaymaker report to truck driver’s school Monday morning. It will last about 2 weeks so maybe now I’ll have to do a little studying.
The boys here sure have settled down since they found out they aren’t leaving and are getting a furlough.
Well folks guess that’s about all. I still have most of you gum left. Wish I had a secretary for the rest of the afternoon. A special one with brown hair and eyes from Amelia Nebr. Ha! Ha!
