Quite a wave of new connections this last week! I'm following back anyone whose accounts I recognize.

If I don't recognize who you are, I'll send you a private message.

MacOS experts: pros and cons of upgrading to Sonoma 14.4 vs. just installing the latest version of Monterrey 12.7.4?

Hardware is a MacBook Air (M2, 2022), 16GB memory, lots of room left on the drive.

Thoughts?

What sixty-two looks like!

I'm collecting various senior citizen IDs and passes as I qualify. Any other age 62 (or younger) things I should consider?

I leaped today to observe the day. It seemed like the thing to do.

No video because it's hard to leap while taking a video selfie. :)

Every little bit helps me keep active.

PSA for Boston-local friends: The snow is just beginning to stick out there.

Should make for an eventful morning commute, if it continues.

Plan accordingly.

We buried my Dad this week.

If you've been following along, you know that he died a year ago July. This whole mess has been going on for nearly a year and a half.

I have some feels. I'm not really ready to post about them. I don't know when I will be.

Those Veronese puff pastry, intended for the Hindu, Sikh, and Jain market, that I posted about in my previous post?

They look like this, and they're not bad.

I feel like getting these just for the tin! But it is a lot of puff pastry.

I managed to break the screen on my iPhone, so it's going in for a replacement tomorrow.

If you need to get in touch with me between now and when it's fixed, non-phone number dependent ways to reach me are best.

I'll post when I get it back.
