Thank you again for all your kind comments about my dad. He's home and doing ok at the moment. (Deep sigh of relief!)

What are you doing this weekend?


PS: These wonderful photos, above, are by Stephen Norman.

I'd love to see your Diana pics! My fiance and I added an Holga to our registry, and we are considering adding a Diana as well.

I'm so sad to hear how sick your Dad is. I feel for you, so much. I'm having trouble dealing with my own father's illness and mortality. I just want him to be here forever, and I know you feel the same way about your Dad (who sounds like such a special guy). I hope you have lots more time with him: time for laughs, time to cry together, time to remember what life was life when you were a kid and your Dad was your hero.

Good to hear your Dad's okay. Today we're heading to the shops, maybe to get a new computer...and then to my younger sister's new house. Can't wait to see her baby bump! Wendy xx

Love the yellow nails and the simplicity.
I hope your Dad gets better <3

Glad to hear your Dad is doing better!

I just ordered a Diana and can't wait to get it. I hope you post any pics you take!

Have a lovely weekend. Hope you catch up on some of that missed sleep.

I <3 my Diana, so much that I started a blog just for her. Dig yours out! There's no way you'll be sorry.

That is a cool camera. My weekend is washing my car and visiting my Daddy to go through old photo albums to find pics for a slide show for my sister's 50th birthday bash. Whew, long sentence. Have a good weekend.

Love this diana, and the yellow nail polish. They go so well together! And weekend... I would love to declare how I'm doing something incredibly adventurous and marvelous, but non! I'm having another one of those working weekends. I dream of driving to yountville, visit some wine cellars, stay at an inn, dine at french laundry. dreams are a nice thing!

I wish all very best to your dad, I'm so glad he's back home and doing better. Be strong, Tina!! much love an bear hugs. xxo
