Joan,
How is everything going? I wrote you one letter but I forgot to mail it. I hope things are picking up for you. I am still waiting for a copy of that picture of you and those big-time actors. I will send it back to you if you'd like. I forgot your new acquaintances name, but is he back from his trip? In case you are wondering about this stationary, I am working in cosmetics for Mr. Brown and Anne Smith. It is temporary. This week I have been working in the office filing our foreign orders. It isn't bad. You can smoke, eat, drink, talk on the phone, ... comfort.
Tomorrow I am working for Ferragamo passing out samples of men's cologne. It is a dime more per/hr ($2.20). Do you believe they are supposed to find models (proff.) who will work for that? The min. wage went up to $2.10. I figure it is better than nothing.
My car has a bad ball-joint. That is the bar that holds the tire on. If I hit a check-hole or go too fast the car will go on a slant and I will lose all steering control. The man said it was dangerous (not safe) to drive. I have checked with every Fiat and foreign parts place, none of them having the part in stock and it has to be specially ordered. So in the meantime I have to drive it. It sounds scary. Today Ma was coming home from work (nite shift) call me in the morning & her transmission went bad. They said any longer driving it her trans. would having burned up. Her car is only 9 mos old and is a new car. Thank goodness it is still under warranty.
Hi. I just got back from getting my haircut. My perm. was just about gone so now it is relatively short & styled. It is cute. Did you send Mother a birthday card? She really appreciated it and I think she was a little surprised to get such a nice card on Mother's Day. I don't think she minds not getting a gift as long as you send a card showing that you thought about her.
Barb, Jody and David & Mrs. Davis bought me a gorgeous plant. I think is is called a Darcemia (?).
I just wanted to drop you a line and say hello. Next week I register for my Summer quarter at College. I am changing my Major from Medical to Bus. Administration. (Since I dropped everything last quarter except for Psycho. and gym (tennis.)).
Do you play tennis at all? I just bought a racket & haven't gotten a chance to use it yet. I really enjoy it and I know you would, too. Take care.
Love,
Judy
