What a surprising find. I don’t recall writing in this book but I have done so, off and on for 10 years. First entry is December 30, 1990 and last November 3, 2000.
It was a bit “in my face” when I opened the cover to see “Songs for my Funeral” but the page is blank. I’m glad I didn’t find this before I had my cancer operation (tumour removal) in June. Geez, it would’ve freaked me out!
I read a little bit. One passage was about how my brain felt “spongy” because I was on night shift and I hadn’t slept well. Gawd!!! I can still feel how awful that was! Especially so because I’d have to go in to work another night shift feeling like that! It was also exacerbated due to the fact that at that time I was taking university courses and studying on my lunch break. I was ever so thankful that I only had to work 2 nights shifts in a row because we worked 12 hour shifts: 2 days, 2 nights followed by 4 days off!
I’ve put the journal back. I’ve read enough. I know it’s there now and can read more later, maybe next year maybe not.
