With March fast approaching (not fast enough), I have been thing back to a journal I made in 2013. My Mom was living with us -- and her dementia -- at that time, and I was always wishing for winter to end so that I could tire her out by walking on the local Rail Trail, and inspire her to sleep all night. I created this little journal then, and have made some additions in recent years. My Mom passed away in the summer of 2016, not having a clue who I was, or who she was, either. Alzheimer's Disease it a terrible thing. This little journal brings back better memories. The cover is cloth over a cut up cereal box. I added a HUGE opening handle, so now it does not sit close to friends. All the edges are zig-zagged on my sewing machine. I'll be making a new one again this March, and you will get to see it later.
