Meant to ring up Leon but didn’t. On the afterthought, it was him who promised to ring me up. Most shocking. The horrid fellow continues to forget his promises to me. I suppose I ought to feel awfully hurt etc. I don’t care the least on the other hand. Complete indifference. Meant to phone Vin too,…

In town again, had to go to Martha’s too, so I had to cut the Red Cross affair. Received a free ticket from Malert (?). For Dad as I am to go on Sunday. Spoke with Vin. on the phone. A most unsatisfactory talk too. I’m afraid I was worse than ever and seem to have drawn out the worse from him too.…

Had a lovely time in the swimming bath all alone. One can see much more so. I gathered a vast experience. Couples behave as if they were all alone too. Most interesting. Went to the cemetery in the afternoon and tried to ring up Leon as I promised. Did so exactly three times, but it’ll never happen…

A lot to do in the office, people coming in one after the other, sometimes three at the same time. Really we ought to have two offices, one for waiting. Gizi ‘phoned too, asking about this evenings invitation to Martha’s. Told her to expect the worse on account of building begin in … . … (sic!) Was…

This was a mad rushed morning again. The beloved ladies here, then one of the Nurses from the Grey Sisters. ‘Phone calls etc. I’ve been waiting for the car to be ready as they were going out, so was late at the swimming bath. We had an appointment there with Vin. on Tuesday. He was even later,…

Fst aid course this evening. Late, like usually. We are learning bandaging arms and fingers. Otherwise nothing special so far. A nurse is giving the lecture. The Dr was there too but was prevented to stay by sth or other. The nurse is a funny middle aged person. Talks in a mildish way. Spoke about…

Kids here yesterday. They are much less trouble now than they used to be. Father unwell. – It is cold and rainy, hadn’t the least wish to play tennis as I intended. April is like Dec. this year. – I sent a note and two tablets to Vin. I’m sure he’ll be in need of it. Besides this gives him a good…

Awfully cold. Vin. rang me up. I was most depressed at the time. Still the influence of my encounter with the other dear person. How silly. Both are going away for holidays. Really Vin. talks as much as an elderly female at times. I suppose at such times when I don’t come up to the point. Poor boy.…

Rang up Leon and we made an appointment for noon. Both of us was most punctual. Only I went in at one side of the building while he on the other + both of us came out on a different door. Eventually we met at the car to the great diversion of the driver. He was nice + I tried hard to sound nice too.…

An awful day. Scenes, frayed nerves, tears etc. Everything I hate. I made a lovely scene myself to [empty space here in the diary] Mother out of the bedroom where she locked herself in. It worked splendidly. I nearly laughed though scenes do tire me. When Vin. phoned I was in too bad mood to enjoy…
