Writing is Hard.
My first writing project lasted 3 years from January 1, 2023 through December,31 2025.
2023 was year one: I wrote a diary entry every day.
2024 was year two: I wrote everyday plus edited the previous year's day's entry.
2025 was year three:
Writing is Reflective.
Writing everyday revealed that my life has a yearly cycle. There were too many times that I was with the same people doing the same thing on the same day to be a coincidence. Weird.
Writing motivated me to take charge of my health. For two years, I wrote about the heaviness I felt. The bottom line is I made changes. Now energy is up and body weight is down (which is a different journey to write about).
Writing is Exciting.
In January 2026 it was time for a new writing project. Two days ago, the decision to write about how I spent the first half of 2026 planning my Fall 2026 - 32 day Europe trip and what happens next was made.
While the trip begins and ends in Paris. It all started in Honolulu breathlessly watching for the annual LaCompagnie Valentine's Day Sale.
Allons-y!
