Letters and new teeth

Slept very firmly. Got up at 6. Ate two oranges and wrote in this diary.

Florence came in about 7:30 as I was writing to Alfred and began to expatiate on the way Helen has been acting of late - which I must say I think has been very foolish.

Had caffe latte at 9.

Then the Directore sent in to ask if I wanted the other room and after talking it all over decided I did. So I dressed and began to move taking my smallest table and chairs. The room is two down from F’s, has sun in the afternoon and is a little larger and the bed is lower. The other bed was 34 inches from the floor. I was all in order by lunch time.

After lunch wrote a long letter to Alfred about addresses re. and told him things had been going on here with Helen and Florence, re. and then sent it to Margaret as she would understand the situation and told her to forward it to Alfred. Sent William the drawing of the sword of Damocles. Mailed them at the branch P.O. in the city.

Took the 4:45 car and got to Dr. Dunn’s office by 5:15. Waited some time and then he called me in and filled the teeth in. I think they do not bite quite right, but I am mighty glad to get them.

Went for my gloves but they are not ready. Got home at 7 as I walked up from San Gervasio.*

So delighted with my teeth that I showed them to several people. That nice Miss Hanney, the English lady, said she hoped my troubles were over. I hope so too. After supper we went outside and sat awhile and then came upstairs.

*Probably Via San Gervasio.
