Homesteader

I tried the magnet test on my husband's arm. He had the Moderna. He couldn't remember which arm received the shot. Yeah, right. I decided to try to find out which arm it was. The magnet stuck to the upper right arm, at the area where he received the shot. He had the funnest look on his face. I didn't say anything about the shot, or 'I told you so'.

We have an annual 'steam and gas show' in a neighboring town. It draws 10,000's of fans. It's the largest in the Midwest. Everything imaginable is running there. The Amish have many of the items on display. I bet you might find one near you and make some offers.

Good article, thanks!! My DH grew up on a mink ranch. They raised 100,000's of mink every year. His father was the breeder and researcher for the owner. Leukemia caused a huge loss in the industry each year. They developed a vaccine for mink and it eliminated the disease in this animal which closely resembles humans in many ways. They submitted the findings and the whole subject was buried and never resurrected. That was over 50 years ago. DH used to also work in the automotive industry. A friend of his developed a carburetor for vehicles that got 50 mph. It was revolutionary and would change the automotive and oil industry. One of the big businesses bought the idea and that was the last time anything was heard of about the new carburetor. Today, the trillions are in big pharma and it's only created a monster that will not go away. On the brighter side, much of my retirement investments are in big pharma. Nuff said.

I laughed when you said 'when old man trouble comes around' .... When DH had his leg crushed from an iron and steel accident at a crane site, the ortho surgeon told him that he patched him up but DH would never walk normal again. DH turned to Doc and said, "that's unacceptable". He was assigned a PT therapist from church but she took herself off the case. Claimed DH would never talk to her again on Sundays. They didn't tell him that his Achilles tendon had ruptured and ended up shorter which required him to learn to walk again. Being the stubborn Kraut that he is, he shed many tears through the year-long PT agony, but does walk normal now. You will too.

I talked to a charity worker from Central America on Sunday and he said that many residents in his country were not taking the shot because it was coming from China and Russia. The people were afraid of the ingredients. He did get the two shots while visiting us in the USA. His wife chose not to get them.

On a brighter note, Texas scored a zero for deaths yesterday.

I didn't take a call yesterday because I was already on the phone. The VA left me a voice message, wanting me to commit to taking a vaccine while I was there this coming monday while getting a steroid injection in my shoulder. If I already had the vaccine, I'm supposed to bring the paperwork proving it. I can see under the current federal administration that it won't be long before the unvaccinated won't be able to secure their rightful medical care.

I heard on the news today that they won't even let the barges pass under the bridge. They are now backed up over 800 barges loaded with fuel and goods.

Wisconsin could pay residents to get COVID-19 vaccine https://www.wisn.com/article/covid-19-wisconsin-doesnt-rule-out-paying-residents-to-get-vaccine/36411950 The percentage of residents who have received at least one dose has only risen a little more than 1% during the last 10 days. Wisconsin vaccination numbers, which had been on the rise for months, are now at a plateau. They dropped from a single-day high of more than 91,000 doses five weeks ago to a little more than 20,000 on Tuesday. "Probably more education because they're afraid. I was afraid at first myself," Ruby Bardwell said. From pop-up clinics in places like shopping centers and bars, health officials have tried a variety of approaches to raise the vaccination rate among those who may still be hesitant. "Now, as we say, the hard part begins. Which is, we find a lot of different, creative ways to do pop-up clinics to bring vaccine to where people are at," Health Services Deputy Secretary Julie Willems Van Dijk said Wednesday. Gov. Tony Evers didn't rule out possibly paying people to get shots at some point in the future. "We'll never say never about any opportunity to convince people to do it," he said. "We haven't reached that point, but we will do everything in our power to get people to get shots in their arms." It appears that the test group is slowing down in adding numbers. The government will now try to bait the control group with candy to get them to step into line to get stuck with the experimental drug.

One commentator said it best ... "Gates wants to rule the world but he can't even rule his own family."

I listened to this man during the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs back in December 2020. The video is getting harder to find as time goes on. The committee is chaired by our own Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson. He has since been crucified by the Social Media Giants at every turn. The state newspapers have launched a constant diatribe against him, ranting and raving about his conservative convictions, often on the front page and usually unfairly and inaccurately. Because Senator Johnson is up for reelection, the barrage of attacks are non-stop. The citizens of Wisconsin are sick of it. No wonder political conservatives want to retire to retreat from the front line assault. No doubt, Senator Johnson has take a huge risk by bringing in well-known doctors who refute, under testimony and with strong long-term data that shows the ability of the drug ivermectin to help prevent COVID-19, to keep those with early symptoms from progressing to the hyper-inflammatory phase of the disease, and even to help critically ill patients recover.

I am unable to open that extension. Even that talented who sits behind me couldn't find a program to open it.

My niece called and said that they were gifted with 75 baby chicks (local feedmill). I could have as many as I wanted. Too bad I don't have any outbuildings, and I'm certainly not going to buy a truckload of wood to build a shed THIS YEAR.

When I met DH, he built and raced cars. I remember when the guys used to make repairs (welding) to the race car gas tanks. They would fill them up with fuel and then weld on the outside. They could boil the fuel without very many accidents. I think of the gene therapy in the same way. Welding gas tanks aren't the answer, but until a better technique comes along, most cars (and welders) are saved without too many incidents.

Maybe we don't need so many respirators anymore in the USA? Pallets and pallets and pallets were found at a landfill in Miami-Dade, WPLG TV reports. "From the packaging, Local 10 News traced the model and the manufacturer: Beijing Aerospace Changfeng Ltd. in Beijing. A posting from a broker shows the device selling at $26,000 during the height of need last spring, as U.S. medical workers scrambled to find ventilators for an exploding number of COVID-19 patients," the station reported.

India is one of the few large countries we didn't work in in the communications field. Our Indian coworkers told us to stay away. First, we were a risk to them because we were Caucasian. Riots come from nowhere and we would be dead before 'law enforcement' could arrive. If we were yanked out 'alive' we would be escorted to jail to wait the 'sorting out' of the situation. We would die of either starvation or disease. They also went on to say there is little infrastructure except for cell phones in most areas. Non-existent power outside cities, non-existent healthcare outside cities, masses of people living on top of one another. Little regard to life and countless Indians live day-to-day on food for that very day. It's a whole new definition to 'give us this day our daily bread.' We really do not understand the concept of living day to day just to exist. Never seeing a doctor or a dentist. The MSM has no idea how the Indians actually live outside of a three star hotel. Unless you're 'boots on the ground', Indian can not be defined by the outside world. I'm surprised this disaster hasn't happened more in the African countries, too. When healthcare workers have to walk for days to outlying villages because there are no roads, it is a country that will not be adequately vaccinated.

My niece texted me yesterday after receiving 75 free chicks. Their local farm store gives away the chicks after a certain length of time to farmers they know would take good care of the little McNuggets. Sure wish I had an outbuilding.

We've been scrounging around for pallets in our area for weeks. Since we haven't lived here very long, our resource contacts are few. However, we hit a bonanza at a flooring store we used to shop at when we built our first home back in the 1980's. They're still in business! They told us to take whatever we wanted. The next day we pulled up with our truck and trailer. It was interesting watching DH trying to help me load the pallets with just one arm. The other one is still in a cast from his thumb surgery. It's so hard for a man to work without the use of a thumb. He tells me that he needs 'an extra pincher' when I have to tie his boots. We forget how much pinching and pulling we do with our thumbs. The photo below isn't our set-up yet, but is a good representation of what we'll have by next week. I've got 5 acres of grass/dry leaves that I can mow and stuff into the first bin (and maybe add more bins in the future). The old black square bin has done it's job but living in sand makes it impossible to keep up with compost needs in the garden and orchard.

We wrote to Schwepps years ago and they had almost no quinine in in their tonic water anymore. Maybe it's because quinine can't be bought with a script in the USA and more. Tell your doc to write a script for quinine on paper and I will give you the address of the Canadian pharmacy that fills them. Most of the capsules come from England as quinine is still used in Africa.

It's been a long journey but the garden shed finally arrived and is set on the new gravel pad. DH has his arm in a cast from surgery so the alternative was to purchase a pre-made shed. We've purchased these before and really like the quality of workmanship. The prices are through the roof this year though. We had to purchase off-the-sales-lot because of the months of back-order. The surcharge was $725 because the cost of lumber increases every day. Our carpenter friends said that we couldn't build the shed for what we paid for it, so we bit the bullet and had it delivered and set-up by the mfg. Glad that painful purchase is done and the garage can be emptied out and the vehicles have a place to live this coming winter.

LC.org (April 21, 2021) The Arizona executive order prohibits all government agencies and private companies that receive government funding from requiring a vaccine passport. While it does not include schools (from daycare to university), Arizona law permits opt-outs for medical, philosophical and religious reasons. Moreover, the federal Emergency Use Authorization law prohibits these COVID vaccines from being forced on people—at least for now. In addition, the Tennessee Senate passed a bill (26-4) that would ban the state from requiring private businesses to push vaccine passports. Today, this legislation has a hearing scheduled in a House subcommittee. Tennessee's Republican Gov. Bill Lee has come out against vaccine passports. So also has New Hampshire's governor. When asked, Gov. Chris Sununu (R-NH) responded, "Absolutely not. No way. ... Anyone that's going to mandate a first-trial vaccine really could be potentially asking for trouble, and this is the ‘live free or die' state." So has South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster, who tweeted, "Vaccine passports will have no place in South Carolina. The very idea is un-American to its core." But freedom is not for everyone, even in America. A town in Alaska called Kongiganak is demanding that people must be fully vaccinated before they can go shopping inside stores. Even the local gym is closed to anyone who is not fully vaccinated, reported Alaska Public Media (APM). Harvey Paul, general manager of a local store, told APM that his store is only allowing four people in at a time. Paul said his employees verify a customer is good to enter by checking their name against a list of vaccinated individuals. "Every couple of days, they'll give us a new list," Paul told an APM reporter. "The list keeps getting bigger and bigger." But if your name is not on that government-issued list of verified, fully vaccinated people, then "they can still make phone orders and their orders are delivered to their home." But they cannot set foot inside Paul's store. This is coercion. "It gives them the incentive, ‘Hey look, I better get vaccinated too so I can go to the store,'" Paul told APM.

I don't spend much time on researching the vaccine these days because I'm not interested in the jab, but found some interesting tidbits from the article. Hindsight is generally full of theories that can come true in one form or another. I did learn a lot from his phone interview, and am surprised that the info is still on the net. Here are a few of his thought. Article link at the bottom. Dr. Michael Yeadon, Pfizer's former Vice President and Chief Scientist for Allergy & Respiratory who spent 32 years in the industry leading new medicines research and retired from the pharmaceutical giant with “the most senior research position” in his field, spoke with LifeSiteNews in a telephone interview. His main points included: There is “no possibility” current variants of COVID-19 will escape immunity. It is “just a lie.” Yet, governments around the world are repeating this lie, indicating that we are witnessing not just “convergent opportunism,” but a “conspiracy.” Meanwhile media outlets and Big Tech platforms are committed to the same propaganda and the censorship of the truth. Pharmaceutical companies have already begun to develop unneeded “top-up” (“booster”) vaccines for the “variants.” The companies are planning to manufacture billions of vials, in addition to the current experimental COVID-19 “vaccine” campaign. Regulatory agencies like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency, have announced that since these “top-up” vaccines will be so similar to the prior injections which were approved for emergency use authorization, drug companies will not be required to “perform any clinical safety studies.” Thus, this virtually means that design and implementation of repeated and coerced mRNA vaccines “go from the computer screen of a pharmaceutical company into the arms of hundreds of millions of people, [injecting] some superfluous genetic sequence for which there is absolutely no need or justification.” Why are they doing this? Since no benign reason is apparent, the use of vaccine passports along with a “banking reset” could issue in a totalitarianism unlike the world has ever seen. Recalling the evil of Stalin, Mao, and Hitler, “mass depopulation” remains a logical outcome. The fact that this at least could be true means everyone must “fight like crazy to make sure that system never forms.” https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/exclusive-former-pfizer-vp-your-government-is-lying-to-you-in-a-way-that-could-lead-to-your-death

My guess is that they use stronger, longer acting chemicals than Roundup. We used to purchase fence-line chemicals that lasted 1-5 years. Roundup is only a few weeks and extremely expensive, even in 55-gallon barrels.
