Each task timer tiddler stores the start, end, elapsed, and total times as 
*lists* in fields.
Each start/end time is a standard 17-digit timestamp number. 
Each elapsed/total time value is a numeric value with a maximum of 3 
decimal places.

Thus, the storage overhead for keeping all this data is relatively minor.

It would be easy enough to create a new Journal tiddler with a template 
that embeds a Task timer.
In this way, each time you start a new journal, you start a fresh 
collection of start, end, elapsed
and total list fields in that tiddler.  Of course, if you really don't 
need/want to save the start, end
or elapsed values, it would also be easy enough to write a bit of 
$list-based wiki code that would
delete those list fields from older tiddlers.
