January 2 Entries: 1911 and 2011

Rita's Entry: Monday, January 2, 1911 - Central Iowa, USA
10 below.  Blizzard.  Packed hard.  Worked on Dad's books some.  Played.  Telephone rang every two and 1/2 minutes.  H.B. bro't mail.  After lunch Mattie here.  Mrs. Wheeler here awhile.  Much gossip.  More books.  Fran and Fama left at noon.  Fran refused to let me go on account of blizzard.  Turned down invitation to Tin's for lunch and H.B's to go down to meet Theron and some of the girls going thru.  Read.  Headache.

Judy's Entry: Sunday, January 2, 2011 - New York, USA
Warm today.  Up to 45 and snow from blizzard is melting fast!  After church, my mother and I meet Andrea, Sharon and Diane for lunch.  It was so nice of them to bring b'day presents for Mom.  I know she misses her friends since moving here from Iowa.  We talked a lot about the changes in the government, both state and federal.  Will Medicare last?  Sharon, who is on Medicare, thinks it must change.  Diane, who isn't old enough yet to be on it, thinks it is good the way it is.  I wonder if it will still be around in 100 years!
