Before this was an afghan or a pillow pattern, it was a pullover sweater pattern. Of course, I knitted it as an example of the British Empire, ca. 1914. Whole lotta dark pink in this sweater but I got it right. I thought it was lost, but now, it's found! store.vogueknitting.com/product/map-...

The limequat marmalade (limequats picked yesterday from my limequat tree) has been started. I threw in a couple of my Meyer lemons, just because. With japonica chiles.

So, for the last many months, I've been trying w/out success to sell my Tucson house in order to move back to Canada - where I believe no one will try to kill me. But this PM, I've found a lovely house in Nogales, AZ. Does ICE know where Nogales is?

If ICE wants to prepare - in the City of Phoenix, there are 3,000 sworn police officers. In the City of Tucson, just a bit larger than Minneapolis, there are nearly 850 sworn police officers- Pima County Sheriffs Office has about 520 sworn officers. 45% of the AZ civililan population own weapons.
January 24, 2026 at 5:44 PM
Last time I saw violence of the kind we're seeing now in Minneapolis, I was in Laguna Park, 1970, when the LA Sheriffs swept thru shooting tear gas at the 20,000 people there.
January 24, 2026 at 5:36 PM
Minneapolis Police confirm the person who was shot has died. 9.45am AZ time.

At the ICE Field Office, Midtown Phoenix. The State's AG Office shares the parking. AG Mayes has been critical of ICE agents for failing to identify themselves & wearing masks,...suggesting that masked agents could be mistakenly shot due to Arizona’s gun laws.

I'm going to assume, as ICE now turns its sights on Arizona (it's nearly spring training here in AZ), that ICE knows that 46.3% of the state owns weapons. 'Anyone 21 or over [may] carry a hidden, loaded firearm in public without a license.' Welcome to Arizona. Surprise!

It's been raining and cold all day here on the Borderlands. I finally picked all the limequats from the tree, to make limequat-red chile marmalade for to-morrow. These limequats are HUGE. An easy 3-4", altho narrow, not that far off from Bearss Limes. I'll throw in a Meyer lemon, just to stretch it.
