Dear Journal,                       March 24, 1605

Today was one of the most horrible days.Today was spring cleaning. I started off doing the laundry. I was stuck out there scrubbing for 3 hours just to get the smells out. Then I went to make the new batch of soap. The lye burned my hands.stirring was miserable. I thought I would never get finshed. Next I went to the fileds to pick furit and vegis for dinner.I made venison stew with peas and for desert I made apple pie. But everybody was to tired to eat anything. So I took it to my sewing group and we ate and sewed. I guess being a mother is not so easy.
