Snow & storm all day & is keeping on in good shape. I shoveled and swept the porch and stairs twice but it is pretty well covered again. So it was a dreary sunday as we was compelled to stay in the house. We played domino most all day. I lost 5 and made 3 games. Made up the inventory of our belongings and put it down at the end of this book. It is quite little and not fully covered with insurance. Our boy was in fine spirits all day to day and so was both, me and M. I only felt a little dull towards evening. We want to go home X mass, but may get cheated out of this trip to, as it now looks Martha is now soaking her washing for to morrow. It is early yet, but we want to go to bed to get fresh strength for to morrow.
