Darling Diane,
A couple of letters from you this AM and of course I was ever so glad to get them. I was sure sorry to know that he were having a bad spell with your head one day. That is no fun I know and I hope that it did no last long. My cold is back at me today and after I thought that I had ditched the thing. I to have a head ache I wish that I could get out of this climate
I have nothing to report from here at this moment but I can say that there is a glimmer of hope although it is still a glimmer but one I can definitely ascertain. No request has as yet been received although I am watching everyday for it. As to h_ _ I feel as you do that there is little to be gained but there is a chance of some help from that direction and one should accept in the past proved loyal to those around him and I have to take it as you know so we shall see. I might add that all is not to well with our friend and it looks as if there might be some change. Troubles have a habit of cropping up there and all are not too well met. Another week should reveal the final status.
Darling to get those blue blankets is a problem and in addition I am not now traveling like I was a while back. I can get the blanket if given time but the blue no for they do not seem to make them or something. I will however keep an eagle eye and see if someone going that direction will get a look or blanket for me.
The razor got here on the same day as your last letters and was I glad to get it. I almost fell over when I saw the airmail postage that you paid to get it here. Gosh I could have waited for that much money. I assume that it came GOD and that you paid it. If not please inform me so I can send a money order for the repairs. And thanks for the prompt action honey girl. The factory sure did a quick job didn’t they?
I sure would like to see the house for from all your discussion of the work you have been doing I know it looks wonderful and darling you have no idea how much I enjoy being around our things and living with them. I guess that some time soon when it looks as if we can light for a spell that we will have to have everything do done over but that is to be expected. No soap I suppose until help and thing get down to normal.
The war news sure looks good and if we could get a little luck who knows but what things might happen that way. Everyone is sick of the war and longs for its ending. If the pace keeps up it should not be long.
I send you all my love darling mine. Those streaks of no mail are the delivery fault as I guess you no doubt have surmised by now for I have written regularly. I adore you sweet lady, Adios.
Edwin
