  1. 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.   <_<

  2. 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.  :0327:

  3. 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!  :hapydancsmil: 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. :hug3:

     

    The photo below isn't our set-up yet, but is a good representation of what we'll have by next week.   :thumbs:  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.  :buttercup:

    They always wake up muscles I did not know I had.  And cramping, too.  One of my docs suggested I drink some quinine water (also known as tonic water) for those and it helps greatly. 

    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.  :wave:

  5. 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.  :hapydancsmil:

    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.

  7. 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.  :0327:  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:

    1. There is “no possibility” current variants of COVID-19 will escape immunity. It is “just a lie.”

    2. 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.

    3. 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. 

    4. 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.”

    5. 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.”

    6. 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.

    7. The fact that this at least could be true means everyone must “fight like crazy to make sure that system never forms.”

    They probably spray them with Roundup now.

    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.    :thumbs:

  9. A dump-truck full of gravel was delivered and DH and I started spreading it over the area where the new garden shed will be located. Since DH is in a hand cast, he really struggled with moving the tractor around and 'slowly' dumping gravel from the bucket in each designated area. I'm the shoveler and raker.  :laughkick: The shed arrives next week and DH works the racetrack this weekend. Finished the pad just in time.  :thumbs:

  10. Generally speaking, the mild Ivory soap has been the go-to for spraying plants. That's also what I use when I need a sticker agent when spraying around the garden with organic chemicals. My grandma used to toss the dish water onto her flower beds when she was done with it.  That was pre-Dawn days.   :hidingsmile:

    Lack of exercise linked to more severe symptoms and a higher risk of death – study

    Among Covid-19 patients, a lack of exercise is linked to more severe symptoms and a higher risk of death, according to a study covering nearly 50,000 people who were infected with the virus. People physically inactive for at least two years before the pandemic were more likely to be hospitalised, to require intensive care, and to die, researchers reported in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. As a risk factor for serious Covid disease, physical inactivity was surpassed only by advanced age and a history of organ transplant, the study found. Indeed, compared to other modifiable risk factors such as smoking, obesity or hypertension, "physical inactivity was the strongest risk factor across all outcomes," the authors concluded.

     

    Just in time for me  to start spreading that FREE truckload of wood chips from our local tree trimmers.  :0327: Not to mention the tons of manure I need to shovel and spread into the garden. :0327:  Did I mention the seven cord of wood that needs to be cut, split, and stacked this Spring?     :24:

     

    Early on, the military was questioning the requirement of having all the troops get a vacc.  When the rollout began, the paper stated that only those who wanted to serve on a submarine were 'required' to get it. Since men have to wait for years for the assignment, they were forced to get poked.   :yar:

    Yawn, Darlene, what did you put in that tea?

     

    She's always pilfering through my cupboards for medicinal cough medicines.  Nite Mother.

     

    My doctor feels that asymptomatic people don't have enough virus load to get sick let alone give it to others. Since his wife, also a doctor, ended up on the city health department my doctor has been spending his nights researching and using up forests of trees through his printer.   :happy0203:  He used to think that objectors to the gene therapy were wackos and conspiracy theorists. He's changed his mind.    :welcome:   He's also finding out that much of the non-mainstream researchers are having their videos and charts wiped from the net.   :reading:

    I also have a good old fashioned OLD flip phone.

     

    The TracPhone is probably a G3 technology. We're up to G5 now. You'll find the G3 phones will give you more and more problems as the cell companies shut down that technology. The cell companies have new compression tools. The data packets are getting smaller and faster. The old phones are packet 'hogs'. Thus, G3 is going away. Besides, they want you to get new phones and new plans. Follow the money.   :rolleyes:

    Homesteader, I was thinking she must surly live in an apartment or a condo. Wait until she has more than a strip or two of grass to cut and hits my age in the summer with all of that heat and humidity. Bet she will have her fat a$$ perched on a riding mower faster than she can say John Deere. 

     

    I think I am past your age, and yes ... the hotter the summer ... the better.    :hapydancsmil:

  15. I learned many years ago to reuse the lids. I just unseal the jars SLOWLY with a spoon. If there is any indentation in the edge of the lid, I just tap it back into shape with the spoon. After a few years, the rubber ring starts to crack. The lids get chucked at that time. I read several years ago that the rubber compound has changed and we're not supposed to boil the lids anymore before canning. Just put the lids in warm water before sealing. The new rubber compound will probably shorten the life of the lids.

     

    Desperate times we're in, and I don't trust any of them because of their manipulations.    :hidingsmile:

  17. My doctor gave me another term to research yesterday. CYTOKYME STORM.  He lost me pretty quickly but I did get a few words to stick in my brain. Overweight, obesity, immune system, fat cells, spike protein. He told me to start googling Cytokyme Storm before it was sanitized.    :o

    But I'm so tired of fighting, and losing, the battle with weeds every place I've ever lived.

     

    Do some research on Preen. It's in pellet form and can be spread over mulch, chips, etc. Some formulas are for gardens and some for landscaping. It will save you on sanity. Lowes and Home Depot sell it. I'm sure Wally World also has it but I stopped buying there when the plague started.  :grinning-smiley-044:  There will always be seeds flying in and eventually germinating to start the weed pulling process all over again. I learned that in one of my master gardener classes and used Preen in Indiana. I kept my sanity and sold the place the first day the For Sale sign was up. Good landscaping is street candy.  :hapydancsmil:

  20. The last I heard, the Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla, was denied entry into Israel because he had not taken his second vaccine. Maybe he was to be part of that announcement in Israel about Pfizer's success in that country.  His first vacc was in December, so the second one is a bit overdue according to their own mfg. recommendations.    :grinning-smiley-044:

    I'm sorry to hear about your brother, Mother. My brother was pretty sick with what he called a 'bad case of the flu' it but didn't end up in the hospital. The whole family came down with it and aren't planning on getting the gene therapy this year. They did agree to live a better lifestyle and lose some weight.  Let us know how that Antibody therapy works on your brother.    :grouphug:
