Saturday, 31 January 2009 When I hopped down from my rack this morning, at 1:30, I still felt tired. The visits with my wife take a lot out of me. We had a wonderful day together, just sitting and holding hands and discussing our future. I did some editing when I returned, but slept [...]
Friday, 30 January 2009 I pressed the indiglo button on my Timex watch this morning when my eyes opened and I saw that it was 2:00 a.m. I began writing 15 minutes later. Fridays are a big day for me because I’m scheduled to visit with Carole. This morning, I wanted to finish [...]
Thursday, 29 January 2009 I’m writing this blog entry at 6:06 on Thursday morning. Generally I write my blog entries for my daily journal at the end of the day, or very early the following morning. Today I began writing at 1:40 a.m., so I’ve already had a full and productive day of work [...]
Wednesday, January 28, 2009 My day began before 2:00 a.m. Last night I received an envelope from Carole that contained a considerable amount of correspondence from readers and visitors to my Web sites. Since I had to respond to many people today, I began early. After writing two blog entries, I turned to the [...]
Tuesday, 27 January 2009 Last night I lay down at 5:58 in the evening. I pulled my beanie over my eyes to block the light and was asleep by 6:00 p.m. I was tired from the work I had done, and from leading a class that required me to speak for two hours. Besides being [...]
Monday, 26 January 2009 This morning I sat down at the desk where I write at 3:15. Since I finished the first draft of the long writing project I had begun last Thanksgiving, I sat down without a clean idea of what I need to write. After looking through my collection of envelopes, I [...]
Sunday, 25 January 2009. I began writing at 3:30 this morning and I felt pleased to complete a first draft of the writing project I began working last Thanksgiving. I wrote in the predawn hours every day since I began, and edited in the later hours of each day. With today’s work, I’ve completed [...]
Saturday, 24 January 2009 I woke this morning at 3:00 am in order to begin my writing. By the time I finished my first writing session I had reached page 192. Tomorrow I expect to conclude this writing project that I’ve been working on since last Thanksgiving. I’ll have plenty more to write, though [...]
Friday, 23 January 2009 I went to bed an hour later than usual last night because I wanted to watch a television show about a man with whom I was once in prison. The decision was a mistake, as I lost an hour of sleep and didn’t get much value from watching the program. [...]
Thursday, 22 January 2009 I wrote this blog entry at 5:30 on Thursday morning. I had been awake since 2:30, and I began my work at 3:00. Later in the morning at 9:00, I was scheduled to meet with the other members of the prison outreach program. Our staff sponsor was supposed to drive [...]
