I bought a 2017 iMac and souped it up to run its Sequoia operating system through a program called OpenCore Legacy Patcher. This is a well designed computer with a beautiful operating system. Currently I am using the apps that came on the computer only. I might download an office suite to have suitable word processing capabilities. Any advice for this Mac novice is welcome.
Today is Juneteenth in the United States. Juneteenth marks June 19, 1865, when enslaved Texans learned they were free, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. It is indeed the day when all slaves were free.
It’s an important holiday to remember a dark part of American history where people owned people. It’s something that should never be repeated. Freedom takes vigilance and practice. I celebrate with those whose ancestors were enslaved longer than they should have been.
I have been a caregiver to my wife, who had emergency surgery in April to clear a severe infection that could have been fatal. Part of that caregiving is wound care. I received a crash course in taking care of her significant surgical wounds before she left her rehabilitation hospital on May 9th. Since then I have practiced the art of applying gauze, pads, creams, saline, and other things to help her heal. So in a sense I have mastered that skill as much as an amateur nurse can.
It’s Friday good people. Do your best. Have the best day possible.
My blog is awesome. Just Saying.
There is nothing like a rainy Sunday to calm and cool things down. It’s also a time to rest and renew before the upcoming week. This week is going to be an eventful one for a few reasons. So, it’s nice that we get a chance to chill. Now our dog doesn’t get that point very well; you can’t have perfection all the time.
