Joni was sick during the night. Fever headache & trying to vomit. After Ron got to work, he called to see how Joni was & told me about Norm Fish's boy dying - same symptoms. Scared me to death. Couldn't get the Dr. here till noon. Joni has strep throat. What a relief. She didn't feel very good all day & stayed up in her bed. She had a shot. Debbie came back again this morning. I cleaned upstairs a little, did some ironing & washing. Finally got my coverlet today. Tonite kids & I stayed home. Ron went to Labor Management at Fred Maytag's home. He was home about 10:30.
