Description
The image shows an open notebook lying on a black surface. The notebook has a red cover, partially visible on the left side. The left page, filled with faint and barely legible cursive handwriting, seems to contain personal reflections or notes. The right page is more clearly written, featuring a series of statements in simpler handwriting. The page describes activities like making soup, watching movies, and creating a PowerPoint presentation. It also lists several names, some of which are partially obscured by black rectangles.

So, we made soup, watched movies and Netflix, did a few short outings, made a PPT for Shelley, and tried to get her well enough to fly.
