Diagnosis: Leukemia; December 8, 1988

I woke up at eight thirty. Alex and I had breakfast then I had a shower and got dressed. I did the dishes and tided up the house.

I phoned Mom to asked her if she would look after Alex while I went shopping. Mom had said yesterday if I wanted to go shopping just to ask. Mom said they would be home so bring Alex down anytime. I said I would bring him down after lunch.

We got down there just after one o’clock. Alex was really annoyed that I wouldn’t be staying with him.

I bought the rest of Charlie’s present so all I have to buy is Kelly something.

Alex and I came home after four o’clock. Charlie wasn’t home yet. I put away the presents then I started to make dinner. We ate at six o’clock when Charlie came home.

After dinner I made a Christmas cake and dough for sugar cookies.

Alex got ready for bed at eight o’clock. I watched TV with Charlie.

Lorrie dropped by to ask if Alex and I could come to a baking exchange at her house on the 19th. I said we could come. She said to bring 5 ½ dozen of one item, something that’s a tradition item in the family. I asked her what was making she said she didn’t know yet but last year she had made meatballs. She said Nora had made Nanaimo Bars and someone else had made a traditional cookie.

After Lorrie had gone I was wondering what to make. I don’t think we have anything that we make on a traditional yearly time. It’s not like there is something I feel I have to make every year. I decided to make sugar cookies and ice them. As a child I can remember Gran making sugar cookies but I don’t have the same recipe.

We watched TV and went to bed at eleven o’clock.
