ive; unbearable weight press i down on us?
the drains are clogged again。 we cant run the wa… ter; or if we do; only a trickle;
we cant flush the toilet; so we have to use a toilet brush; and weve been putting our dirty water into a big earthenware jar。 we can man… age for today; but what will happen if the plumber cant fix it on his own? the sanitation department cant e until tuesday。
miep sent us a raisin bread with 〃happy pentecost〃 written on top。 its almost as if she were mocking us; since our moods and cares are far from 〃happy。鈥
weve all bee more frightened since the van hoeven business。 once again you hear 〃shh〃 from all i sides; and were doing everything more quietly。 the police forced the door there; they could just as easily do that here too! what will we do if were ever。
。 。 no; i mustnt write that down。 but the question wont let itself be pushed to the back of my mind today; on the contrary; all the fear ive ever felt is looming before me in all its horror。
i had to go downstairs alone at eight this evening to use the bathroom。 there was no one down there; since they were all listening to the radio。 i wanted to be brave; but it
was hard。 i always feel safer upstairs than in that huge; silent house; when im alone with those mysterious muffied sounds from upstairs and the honking of horns in the street; i have to hurry and remind myself where i am to keep from getting the shivers。
miep has been acting much nicer toward us since her talk with father。 but i havent told you about that yet。 miep came up one afternoon all flushed and asked father straight out if we thought they too were infected with the current anti…semitism。
father was stunned and quickly talked her out of the idea; but some of mieps suspicion has lingered on。 theyre doing more errands for us now and showing more of an interest in our troubles; though we certainly shouldnt bother them with our woes。 oh; theyre such good; noble people!
ive asked myself again and again whether it wouldnt have been better if we hadnt gone into hiding; if we were dead now and didnt have to go through this misery; especially so that the others could be spared the burden。 but we all shrink from this thought。 we still love life; we havent yet forgotten the voice of nature; and we keep hoping; hoping for。 。 。 everything。
let something happen soon; even an air raid。 nothing can be more crushing than this anxiety。 let the end e; however cruel; at least then well know whether we are to be the victors or the vanquished。
yours; anne

dearest kitty;
saturday; sunday; monday and tuesday it was too hot to hold my fountain pen; which is why i couldnt write to you。 friday the drains were clogged; saturday they were fixed。 mrs。 kleiman came for a visit in the afternoon and told us a lot about jopiej she and jacque van maarsen are in the same hockey club。 sunday bep dropped by to make sure there hadnt been a break…in and stayed for breakfast。 monday (a holiday because of pentecost); mr。 gies served as the annex watchman; and tuesday we were finally allowed to open the windows。 weve seldom had a pentecost weekend that was so beautiful and warm。 or maybe 〃hot〃 is a better word。 hot weather is horrible in the annex。 to give you an idea of the numerous plaints; ill briefly describe these sweltering days。
saturday: 〃wonderful; what fantastic weather;〃 we all said in the morning。 〃if only it
werent quite so hot;〃 we said in the afternoon; when the windows had to be shut。
sunday: 〃the heats unbearable; the butters melt… ing; theres not a cool spot anywhere in the house; the breads drying out; the milks going sour; the windows cant be opened。 we poor outcasts are suffocating while everyone else is enjoying their pentecost。〃 (according to mrs。 van d。)
monday: 〃my feet hurt; i have nothing cool to wear; i cant do the dishes in this heat!〃 grumbling from early in the morning to late at night。 it was awful。
i cant stand the heat。 im glad the winds e up today; but that the suns still shining。
yours; anne

j dear kitty;
〃if youre going to the attic; take an umbrella with you; preferably a large one!〃 this is to protect you from 〃household showers。〃 theres a dutch proverb: 〃high and dry; safe and sound;〃 but it obviously doesnt apply to wartime (guns!) and to people in hiding (cat box!)。 mouschis gotten into the habit of relieving herself on some newspapers or between the cracks in the floor boards; so we have good reason to fear the splatters and; even worse; the stench。 the new moortje in the warehouse has the same problem。 anyone whos ever had a cat thats not housebroken can imagine the smells; other than pepper and thyme; that permeate this house。
i also have a brand…new prescription for gunfire jitters: when the shooting gets loud; proceed to the nearest wooden staircase。 run up and down a few times; making sure to stumble at least once。 what with the scratches and the noise of running and falling; you wont even be able to hear the shooting; much less worry about it。 yours truly has put this magic formula to use; with great success!
yours; anne

dearest kitty;
new problems in the annex。 a quarrel between dussel and the franks over the
division of butter。 capitulation on the part of dussel。 close friendship between the latter and mrs。 van daan; flirtations; kisses and friendly little smiles。 dussel is beginning to long for female panionship。
the van daans dont see why we should bake a spice cake for mr。 kuglers birthday when we cant have one ourselves。 all very petty。 mood upstairs: bad。 mrs。 van d。
has a cold。 dussel caught with brewers yeast tablets; while weve got none。
the fifth army has taken rome。 the city neither destroyed nor bombed。 great propaganda for hitler。
very few potatoes and vegetables。 one loaf of bread was moldy。
scharminkeltje (name of new warehouse cat) cant stand pepper。 she sleeps in the cat box and does her business in the wood shavings。 impossible to keep her。
bad weather。 continuous bombing of pas de calais and the west coast of france。
no one buying dollars。 gold even less interesting。
the bottom of our black moneybox is in sight。 what are we going to live on next month?
yours; anne
