Hello Darling,
I’ll write
a couple lines this evening before I go to bed.
I received two letters from you. One from Ila, the candy you sent and a
couple of journals. “April 27”, “May
17”. Late issues. Ha Ha. The candy was
really swell too. I never have received the Clark Bars yet.
You told me
to tell you what I wanted for my birthday. Don’t worry about that. I’m not.
There isn’t any thing I need accept you. Anyway it would really be late. Wait
till next year and then buy something. What you should do is tell me what you
want for yours, but don’t look for it. Ha Ha. I guess that sounds corny but I
can’t help it. That’s just one of those
things. About the War Bond, I took out an allotment when I left
I got your
letter about Charlie. Poor Naomi better hurry or maybe Charlie will try and
shoot himself again. Remember when he
did? How did he get burned so
badly? Did the buck explode or
something? Boy I’ll bet Naomi is having
fits or something. Better watch her or
maybe she will start blinking her eyes.
So you
finally went back to your old job again. I looked for that to happen a long
time ago but wasn’t sure. Well don’t work to hard.
Ila told me
you were looking better than you ever did.
How are you and Butch getting along?
Better watch him Norma might give him some ideas again. Remember? If you don’t, I’ll tell you. It happened when I was home. Was your face
red!!
Did you
ever get any mail yet? I’ve been writing
pretty regular so you should sooner or later.
There isn’t much news around here. Maybe something will happen someday.
Honey, if
you don’t hear from me, don’t worry.
Sometimes I’ll be too busy to write but Ill write every chance I get. If
you don’t hear from me don’t stop writing. You will get some mail sooner or
later.
Well Honey
I’m pretty tired tonight so I’ll close. Don’t work too hard. Boy what I wouldn’t give to be there with
you. Don’t worry. I’m feeling swell but
lonesome for you. I’ll send you all my love.
I love you.
Yours
forever,
Ralph
