May 1, 1976 (Letter from Barb N)


I had to tear up part of yesterday's note.  It was poorly written.

I'm back on my four days on.  I work days this string of watches.  It has been a relatively quiet morning.

Laura, m y other roommate, comes back from the states this week.  I'm looking forward to her return. I miss talking to her.  She has a pretty stable disposition and quite "together" for her inexperience   She comes from Minnesota and has led a sheltered, "strict-Catholic" life.

I went to a party last night and I came back with a "natural high".  I made a resolution on my birthday that I was not going to smoke or drink for a year.  (Just to see how my body and mind take to it.)  I know that I am strong enough to go through this time and I feel very good inside.

I have been writing my dreams down now and then for the past couple of years.  (I keep a notebook by my bed now.)  I find that most of my dreams are my true emotions coming out in a particular situation.  But then there are always some abstract part in my dream that takes deep thought to figure out.  I feel that realizing what's behind my dreams it will help me with some of my emotional decisions.

I'm hoping to go to Switzerland, Germany, and Austria over Memorial Day weekend.  I have to talk to Frank and see how much time he will be getting of. I definitely need a change of scenery.

That's all that's new from me.
