Famena is a class act and I suspect that she knows this. She must keep her journals for
--the term of the commission in which she notarized the document (That window has passed.)
OR
--three years after the date of the notarization. (That window has passed.)
Whichever is the LONGER of the two.
Both windows have passed, so she has no obligation to produce the records if she not longer has them.

TEX. ADMIN. CODE - RULE §87.54 RECORDS RETENTION
(a) Records of a notarization other than an online notarization shall be retained, in a safe and secure manner, for the longer of the term of the commission in which the notarization occurred or three years following the date of notarization.
(b) Records of an online notarization shall be retained, in a safe and secure manner, for five years following the date of the notarization. An online notary public must also maintain a back-up of the electronic records for the same period of time. Both the original records and the back-up shall be protected from unauthorized use.
