All days at nights I am thinking of you and hoping you are well and safe. I am missing you too much and sort of feel stifled and want to get out and do something so that I can't think so much of you. It is awfully quiet here without the boys. A lot of girls have joined up in the armed forces and if I had half a chance I would too. If Jim comes home at the end of this month, I am going to. I am fed up of Opo [Opotiki] and I want a change from housework and milking cows though I have done none of that lately. A lot of Opo girls went before selection committees last week.
