Sun., 4/13 Oh dear I have to hurry so to get to on duty at 9:45. Same old job but I watched an eragation. Have not quite got the temperature fixed in my head but otherwise I have got the idea. Combed several patient’s hair and went off duty at 12:30. Had dinner at nurse’s home and went to Kearny to spend the rest of the day.
