Choose a person, then save a detail you would like to have close at hand.
Person*
For example, a favorite meal, a new job, or something they care about.
This starts with today's date. Change it if another date fits better.
Things you remembered and times you talked, in date order.
Dad talked me through fixing the loose kitchen socket, then asked three times whether I had turned the power off first.
Dad was an electrician for nearly forty years and still cannot walk past a crooked light switch without straightening it.
Helped him carry a 1950s radio home from the market. It is much heavier than it looks.
He restores old radios in the shed, listens to cricket while he works, and labels every jar of screws in handwriting nobody else can read.
Dad pretends he does not care about birthdays, then spends weeks finding exactly the right practical present for everyone else.
