Leonard Nimoy [Mr Spok]

[MrsPeel]

Leonard Nimoy, the original Spok in Star Trek, died yesterday.... he was 83 and had a great life, and am sure he is in a great place now

His last tweet is amazing:

"A life is like a garden. Perfect Moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory"

Which comes into what I say when people tell me of about so much scrapobooking.... we are preserving memories that are not quiet preserved with just the photos.... that is why I sometimes think the journaling is needed, even if only one line to explain what was going on at the time of the photo....

anyway, apologies I havent been around much, I have dentist on Monday but the pain I have been in for this past week, can't really eat or drink properly, makes me grumpy and you rather not have me on the low posting

Glad you are going to get in to the dentist. Hope you have a restful week-end, Cynthia.

Poignant quote. I agree with you and I am trying to work on that this year - more journaling. Hope you feel better after seeing the dentist!

Thank you for sharing. That's a beautiful quote. I was so sad to hear of his passing. I am a total sci-fi geek. He was an amazing actor. And you are right, it could have been written by a scrapbooker. And that's how I feel, as well.
Glad you are going to the dentist, but ouch. Hope you can eat some solid food soon. Hugs!! <3

yes- me too, I'm gonna try get back to , at least do one line to identify the people in the photos....which is what it pains me the most with my parents old photos...they have tons of photos going back a hundred years at least....but 50% of the people they don't know who they are, or remember it was a cousin but not the name, some they cant remember what the situation was...

I promised Farah a long time ago (seems like an eternity now..- was before the story tellers) that I would put together the ideas I follow for journaling- I may take some time to put it down on a post...as I saw lots of people during MOC sayi8ng their weakness is journaling- With me, I think that when I started being in lots of CTs, I kinda shortened the time and started changing styles....
anyway, great word that Nimoy left us...and so many hours of wonderful acting

oh btw: the dentist was great- no operation needed, am feeling great now (on antibiotics still but no pain!!!)
thanks!!!!
