She could save money and email them, but I am sure she thinks that if she did that, people wouldn't feel as guilted into reading them. She also makes calendars of her vacation pictures and again sends them out to friends and family. We're still waiting for our 2018 calendar.
I have come to take it with some humor. My husband and I open a nice bottle of wine and I read it translating it into my husband's language (his English isn't very good) and then we laugh and laugh. I mean why does she think people would care so much about every minute detail of a mundane trip. Once my dog tore one apart!! What a shame, we didn't get to finish it.

Why anyone thinks their "slideshow" of their vacation is of interest to anyone else, I do not know. I mean, I think it's nice to see a few pictures, but that's all I care to look at from someone else's vacation.
