From the Reagan Diaries:
Thursday, July 23 [1981]:
Saw “Mommie” off for London & the Royal Wedding. I worry when she’s out of sight 6 minutes. How am I going to hold out for 6 days. The lights just don’t seem as warm & bright without her.
Went to the Oval office for the morning brief but my mind wasn’t on it. Met in the State Dining Room with St. Legislators, Mayors & Co. officials from a dozen states re the tax bill.
…
Watched the “Waltons” on TV and so to bed.
