Page 831 #6

My husband and I just recently relocated so he could take a job in military production. He is the supervisor of a factory that is now producing B-24 Liberator bombers. With all the extra cash he is making, we go to the movies or a baseball game almost every weekend. At noon, I go to the supermarket and receive my portion of food with my ration card. On the way home, I notice that my car is low on gas... I go to the station which is also rationed and get gas. When I get home, I tend to our Victory Garden and pick vegetables for tonight's dinner. While I'm waiting for dinner to cook, I knit a pair of socks to donate to the Red Cross. After dinner, we draw our shades for "blackouts" which help prepare us for a possible bomb raid.
