Monday, 17 October, 1966, The Frances Hubbard Diaries

Monday, 17 October, 1966, The Frances Hubbard Diaries
Cloudy, windy, cool, 30's.  I ironed and did mending.  Received birthday gift from Marilyn, an Amplified New Testament.  Chip and Janet (Halleck) and kids here in evening.
Comment:  Janet was the daughter of Louvilla Kingsley, Mom's good friend and neighbor....."The Amplified Bible is a translation that, by using synonyms and definitions, both explains and expands the meaning of words in the text by placing amplification in parentheses and brackets and after key words or phrases. This unique system of translation allows the reader to more completely grasp the meaning of the words as they were understood in the original languages. Through multiple expressions, fuller and more revealing appreciation is given to the divine message as the original text legitimately permits."  Wikipedia.....now you know....

You're always young in your mind it is said, No matter the face in the mirror, That you see with surprise then say to yourself, "What is that old man doing here?"
