From Lisa: After a break of a few days, I’m resuming sharing Hattie’s posts today with a bit of a twist: For several days in a row, I’m going to post her entries from 1934, so that you can follow the Witchers’ daily life continuously, rather than from random years. I’m currently working on transcribing the 1934 entries, an interesting year not only because of the Dust Bowl and Depression, but also because Hattie seemed recovered enough from her broken leg the year before to write long, neatly written entries, and she also still had Maggie, her live-in helper, to assist with household chores, so she was well-rested and generally in excellent spirits.
Enjoy!
