please let it be noted MamaTried, that my post had nothing about you-know-what in it.I adore you!
welp
you prolly already know that i have no clue what "you-know-what" means. or, at minimum, already forgot it...
and, of course, i adore you
You're not alone.....
same here.
we could start a 12 step group, but i'm too dam lazy to survive more than 3 or 4...
Hope ya told 'em "right back atcha!"
Unless you've taken steps to prevent it, it's a wonder MS didn't 'force' it on you yet. They changed the upgrade policy, and got pretty aggressive about it there for a while. After public and media pressure, they backed off a little.
This is the Win10 upgrade 'preventer' that I use. GWX Control Panel.
But remember, the 'deadline' for the 'free' Win10 upgrade is July 31, anyone wants it would do well to get it before then. IMO, though, it will still be available anyway... MS wants as many PCs as possible to have it so they can vacuum up all that data... higher metrics, more $$$ for them don't cha know.
@Ken_A, I hope your birthday was spectacular! You have our full permission to celebrate again, today 
@2legsshrt, I couldn't quite work out whether you've gone already, or are going for next Monday. Regardless, safe travels! If that not-very-nice-man gives Ginny's mom any trouble while you're there, bop him over the head with your walking stick!
@Myrany, are you feeling any better? Speedy recovery, dear one...
@Danousa, my mama and my grandfather (mama's dad) were both friends of Bill W's. They were the kindest, most compassionate, and most loving people I've ever known. I think most of Bill's friends are like that ...
@Mrs C, I'm so sorry. I have no other words.

Came in to work one day and all the computers had been upgraded to Win10 overnight. But, not for long!
My brother went to get lab work done and the employees were grumbling about the same thing. They came in one morning and all the computers had upgraded to Win10 overnight. On top of that, the programs they used to do the lab work were NOT compatible with Win10. He decided not to mention that they could have rolled back to their previous version since it was too late by then.
When I bought a new computer, it came with Win10 unfortunately. So no choice. But, after the first automatic upgrade, I decided that enough was enough. No more! I love linux!

Police: Smoker sprays gas on another woman in fuel pump
MEHOOPANY, Pa. (AP) — Police say a woman sprayed gasoline on a driver who criticized her for smoking a cigarette while pumping fuel at a Pennsylvania convenience store.
Fifty-one-year-old Kimberly Brinton, of Meshoppen, faces a preliminary hearing July 12 on aggravated assault and other charges stemming from the encounter Thursday at the Mehoopany Dandy Mart, about 30 miles northwest of Scranton.
Police say the driver told Brinton to extinguish her cigarette, then threw windshield cleaner onto Brinton in hopes of putting out the cigarette.
Police say when the other woman tried to drive away, Brinton screamed she was going to light her on fire and sprayed gasoline on her.
Police say the other woman slipped on the gasoline getting out of her car and broke her arm.
Online court records don't list an attorney.

Happy 4th of July everyone!!!
MIL is doing well after her surgery.
I managed to get a summer flu and spent a solid week miserable. I still don't have much energy but I am on the mend. Slow but sure wins the race.
Sorry to hear that you're havin' a rough go of it, Myrany... I'm happy to hear that you're back home now. Hopefully you'll be able to get a bit of rest and start feeling better soon.
Thank you Willie
I hadn't posted it yet because I was and still am processing what's happened.
4 years ago my Dad was diagnosed w/stage 4 lung cancer. He spent a year fighting it with both chemo and rad treatments.
At the end of that year just after my Mom passed he finally came up clean on the tests and scans.
I didn't hear from him for a few weeks but that's not unusual with it being golf and model airplane season.
I knew he had not been feeling well, but he saw his GP and it was chalked up to being 83, having heart problems and never having fully recovered from the fight. On Father's Day when I called he told me that on a routine check from the oncologist the first of the month they found out the cancer is back and with a vengence. It's back in his lung and has spread to his liver. To far advanced to knock it out but chemo was an option to possibly slow it and get him some more quality time.
He started chemo but after the second dose he decided he just can't take the side effects. He didn't want to spend what time he has left in agony from the drugs.
I'm trying to remind myself he already stole 3 years back from the "C" and this time I won't be blindsided when the time comes like I was with Mom, but no daughter is ever truly ready to loose her Daddy.
So very sorry to hear this, Mrs. C.
I agree with you, none of us is ever truly ready to lose a loved one. My Bride has managed to steal a few extra years so far, but the fight is definitely not going our way. It is back again, and the current chemo is the last one in the arsenal. Having witnessed many of the side effects, I can completely understand why your Daddy made the decision to forego further treatment. We've wrestled with that same decision, and I do not believe that we are finished with it. She continues the treatment for now, but I fear that a time will come that she may decide to live out the rest of her time in peace without the added discomfort of those drugs. My heart truly breaks for you, and you have all of the prayers that I can possibly send.Thank you, Russell. I truly appreciate your insight on this. I, myself, am coming along to those same thoughts. There isn't much that I can do for her, but I can do my best to be there for her, to make her happy, and to do whatever it takes to bring a smile to her lips. Thank you for the reminder.
Testing-- testing. New keyboard working fine.
Happy birthday, Ken. My prayers for all who face loss.
