Had a long talk with Leon in the morning. Took ‘phone to office which upset a bit Mother. We had a nice long talk. He sounds old and disheartened. Became quite good friends again, but didn’t sound too eager to meet me. As a matter of fact said it couldn’t be before Xmas. I know they are very busy…

We meant to meet after gymn with Leon yesterday but it didn’t come off. Been to cinema to day.  Picture quite alright. Been to Marietta last week but intend going on Thursday again it’s being her name day. Had an awful row at home last week owing to my delicate suggestion of marrying my dear friend…

Bought some little things for the kids. Went to the dressmaker too. Gymn not so good as usually, was a bit tired I suppose. Found that one of the girls, Alexa K., was leaving a job as English correspondent at a Factory, which I might get owing to excellent English knowledge. 300 P-s a month. Quite…

I was at a late mass today but didn’t meet Mrs Farkasvölgyi there. Went to the cemetery early in the afternoon. ? has just looked out of his window when I passed but Magdi was not in yet. Mother + little Ervin came, we left together but I left them on the way as she stopped to talk to a friend. The…

At noon I spoke with Vin. on the phone, on account of Mother who wasn’t mind seeing him. He is exactly the same, talks for…

Alone all week. The operation was done this morning it is a success. According to the Drs. Father feeling well, but I felt faint this morning when I saw all the blood etc. and couldn’t bear the smell. Such a nerve reaching odour. I wasn’t feeling so ill since ages. Nearly thought I couldn’t go home,…

The parents here. Father slightly better, Mother not very well. We went to see Father’s Drs, they say the operation is necessary.

Last week passed uneventfully. On Saturday we had two letters from the Directory of Finances on account of the new taxes. What a lot of fuss they make, I felt quite flustered, tried to make things, or rather write things ready for them, but couldn’t finish in time. I cooked dinner a bit late for…

The fireplace in the hall was remade today. What a mess it meant. I cooked the dinner and it was excellent except for the soup which was too salty but otherwise hadn’t much of a taste.
