April 29, 1988 Today has been real fun so far. In 1st hour most of our class was gone with the Beta Club and we did some work. We did brain teasers and told jokes. In second hour we had to choose to do either a crossword puzzle or a word search or something like…

April 26, 1988 Today is a very strange day. I feel okay, I guess. I had a strange experience yesterday. My friend Emily bought a Ouiji board and we played with it and we found out some weird stuff. I don’t know what to think about that stuff. It’s strange. Emily is fascinated with that stuff and she likes…

April 25, 1988 Today has been crappy so far. I don’t feel good today. My mom would not let me go outside all weekend. I was so bored. I slept and watched TV most of the weekend. I didn’t feel too good anyway. I went to the doctor Thursday and my doctor has the funniest name. You will…

April 22, 1988 I have been sick but I am feeling some better today. I went to the doctor and they did the two throat cultures and they both came back negative. I must just have a virus that is going around or something. That’s probably it because Emily has been feeling bad just like me and she came…

April 21, 1988 I was sick today and I went to the doctor they did two throat cultures and they told us to call tomorrow and see what the results of the tests are. I might have strep throat but they said it was probably just a virus that has been going around. I hope so because I don’t like…

April 19, 1988 Today has been pretty good so far. I don’t feel too good though. I hate school sometimes. I will be so glad when we get out for the summer. I am going to stay with my Daddy some and I am going to work at his store. It will be fun. There’s not really all that much…

April 18, 1988 Yesterday, I went to the state capitol and saw Huey Long’s monument. We went up to the tower and I felt like I was floating around when we were on the elevator. I almost fainted when we got up there. I was better when we got down. There was a bicycle race up there…

April 15, 1988 I had fun last Friday. My friend Heather and I went to Ms. Earlene’s office and passed out flyers for her. We had fun knocking on doors and all that stuff. We helped Mrs. Earlene out alot by doing that and she really appreciated it alot. She is a nice lady and I like…

April 12, 1988 The hardest thing for me to do is sit and listen to my mom gripe and complain about anything and everything. I love her alot but she gets me so mad sometimes and I just want to slap her across the face but I can’t help it. She goes on and on about things…
