We buried Mom today.
About 140 people at Our Saviour's, which for a woman of eighty-seven, on a Friday in February, at four below zero, is a compliment she would have noted. What is left of the Ladies Aid sat together in the fourth pew on the left, where they always did. Vi came from Bethel Ridge in the van with two aides. Judy read the…

Sixty. Mom's card is the one that did not come.
Ellen drove up with the children for the day. Hannah gave me a bookmark she laminated herself at school. Owen gave me a rock. R. took us all to the Nordic Table, where he ate walleye and no dessert.

We signed the wills and the trust this afternoon at Rebecca Stannard's office.…

It is done, and he is all right.
They took him down at 9:50. Ellen and I sat in a waiting room on the second floor with a fish tank and a television nobody was watching. I had brought a book and held it. Ellen did not pretend; she sat with her forearms on her knees. At 11:25 Dr. Valdivia came out in her blue cap. She sat down beside us before she sa…

The other arteries have mild disease and need nothing now. The heart muscle is pumping normally. THE PILLS. Four are new. Ellen has them in the box with fourteen doors,…
I slept four hours. Every time he turned over I was awake and listening.
Ellen has finished the raking. She did it at seven, before either of us was up, and put the rake away. This morning I wrote out his allergies, because the hospital asked him three times in three days and he gave three slightly different answers, and next time I may not be standing there to correct him.

Tub 1 is the tree lights and the star. Tubs 2 and 3 are ornaments. Tub 4 is the children's…
There was a quarrel on the porch last night, after the children were down, and…
…I am up early because of it. It began with David, who had a spreadsheet.

The Fourth, fourteen of us, hot. Two loon chicks this year, both riding.
Hannah set up an easel at the end of the dock on Friday evening and painted until she could not see: the dock itself going out into the water, and the far shore, and the light that comes at about eight. R. looked at it for a long time and asked whether he could buy it. She said it was not for sale, and then that it wa…

At four yesterday afternoon Kate was at the back door with a carry-on, and behind her David, and behind him Ellen, grinning like children who have got away with something. Only the three of them.

Hannah told me on the dock tonight that she is not going to art school.
I had not known that she was thinking of it, exactly, but Ellen had, and has been careful to say nothing. The people at the gallery have told her she is good, and she is.
