Today and the Past

This is my Three Year Diary given to me by my Japanese DIL about 5 years ago. I am about to come to the end - 2018

I found a heap of videos and photos that had not been processed into a film event when we sailed in a small ship down the wild west coast of the bottom half of NZ. You can only do this by ship! Gee, I took some super photos. 2016.
Three Good Things:
1 Watched some old video’s I made 12 years ago and was amazed at my creativity. I don’t think it’s as easy nowadays.
2. A fire on all day and the garden got more rain.
3. A vanilla ice cream for a Wednesday night treat

@phil_howcroft Normally, I have 5 year diaries, Phil, but was given this one so had to use it! It looks a bit like a bible!

A very stylish looking diary.

[Diana]

What a wonderful gift.

[Margo Sayer]

A lovely gift...and so interesting to have previous years entries for reference aka settling who remembers events etc. correctly!

[Casablanca]

What a dramatic looking cover. I used to keep journals but burnt a load one time when I realised they were too personal and I didn't want anyone else reading them lol!

[Margaret Brown]

A beautiful book to catch your thoughts in

[haskar]

A wonderful gift. Great shot and textures.

[Maggiemae]

@casablanca Mine are a bit personal too but if someone reads them, I won't be around any more!

[Pat Knowles]

I have been told by Alex it’s much wetter than normal on South Island!

[Pat Knowles]

@casablanca @maggiemae I wrote a diary for a few years but cringe when I read them....haven’t resorted to burning them yet but am tempted!

[Maggiemae]

@happypat @casablanca Don't burn - your diaries are the real you! Your thoughts and worries, joy and sadness. Your children if they want to read them will find out lots of things they never knew about you!

A truly special gift!
