Diagnosis: Leukemia; December 31, 1987

I woke up at nine o’clock. I had a shower and got dressed.

Shirley phoned and asked what time she should pick up Alex. I told her we couldn’t find anywhere to go. Most people we know seem to be staying home.

I asked Shirley if they were going to their friends as planned. She said the friends cancelled after they found out Shirley and Aaron were having marital problems.

I told her they should come over here and we could have snacks throughout the night. We arranged to get together at eight o’clock.

Charlie and Alex went to Save-On Foods to get the food for tonight. They dropped me off at the mall. They met me an hour later at the Bay and we came home at three o’clock.

I tided up the house, vacuumed the house, cleaned the living room furniture. Then I started to prepared the vegetables to go with the dip.

I had a shower and got dressed. It wasn’t long after that they arrived. Shirley and I got the food ready. Charlie got everyone some wine. We had a vegetable tray consisting of broccoli, carrots, celery and dip, chips and dip, and baking stuff. Shirley brought small quiches, sausage rolls, tortilla triangle, pretzels and Nanaimo bars.

We had our snacks, Aaron and Charlie were watching a movie which was over at ten o’clock. Shirley and I played video games until it was over then we watched a movie we rented.

When the movie was over Aaron, Brent, Alex and I played bumper cars. Then it was midnight! We went to the sun deck and yelled HAPPY NEW YEAR!! The corner house on Westlake was out and they were about to go in but when they saw us they came out again.

We came in and Charlie opened the bottle of Champagne, we toasted each other.

It sure was an enjoyable evening. One of my better New Year Eves!

We watched another video, Shirley, Aaron and Monique left at two thirty.

I cleaned everything up and finally went to bed at three thirty.

Alex went to bed at one thirty, Brent stayed overnight.
