    I'm so sorry to hear of your loss, @Mark . My most heartfelt condolences to you. Maxine was so lucky to have Sarah and you to care for her when she could no longer care for herself. It is exhausting in every way. What a remarkable gift to her.

    You guys take care of yourselves.

    ❤

  • Happy Independence Day!
    wtgW wtg

    In the wtg house, it's Happy Jam Cooking Day!! We have berries galore.

    I grow the red currants and gooseberries, bought fresh strawberries at the store, and frozen blueberries (regular, not wild) from Costco.

    We've already made a batch of red currant-blueberry jam and a batch of red currant-strawberry jam. Straight gooseberry next up, after I get back from the store. Need a bunch more jars.

    Black currants are still ripening. Not sure if I'll have enough to make jam from them. I just graze on the red raspberries, straight from the canes. Or in a bowl with some half and half and maybe a sprinkle of sugar.

    Windows 11 should have been an easy upgrade - Microsoft chose to unleash chaos on us instead

    For more than three decades, Microsoft's customers have been able to count on at least 10 years of support for their Windows PCs. That all ended with Windows 11, and the company might never be able to clean up the mess..

  • Welcome to America!

    I think I've posted this before. I remembered the anniversary and was thinking about it all day.

    My mom, her brother, and their parents arrived in the US on this day in 1949.

    The dueling House and Senate bills differ on details but agreed on a key point: Both would massively expand federal spending on immigration enforcement.

    Overall, the Senate version will dedicate $175 billion to an immigration crackdown, including an extra $30 billion for ICE, which can be spent over four years. To put that in perspective, ICE’s current budget is about $8 billion per year.

    The bill also designates $45 billion for detention facilities, which can also be spent at any time over the next four years. By comparison, the U.S. spends about $8 billion a year on the Bureau of Prisons.
