It's wonderful when two people can make it work for 50 years! Congratulations!!!!

How many of you know how to convert a water heater (fake) into a safe?

Hey friends...can somebody tell me (so I can tell hubby) how to convert a water heater into a safe? It's mentioned here and when I told him, he was very serious in wanting to know!

You'll know you're a survivalist if...you're in a discount grocery chain and the couple in front of you have two carts jammed full of what looks like prepper stuff and you say "I'll bet they're preppers...but keep your mouth shut!".

and...you read about converting the water heater to a safe and go running to the bathroom where you're hubby is and "yell...did you know!" and he asked "how?"

Quote:just remember.... in the end.. I will have the fabric to make jeans, shirts, dresses, underware, bras, panties, slips, and aprons.

 

 

 

And I guess the rest of us will become nudists...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hmmm...must keep mice and bugs out of fabrics or we'll be "holy" people!

Prayers that availeth much...

You all are absolutely FUNNY! Had a friend tell me once that she took her contact lens out and could still see! She began jumping up and down praising God because she "was healed"...only to find out shortly that she had put a new lens over her older one. Phoooey!

Did you know...that if you get an ink stain on your clothes (even gels!) just remove the clothing and spray it with Aqua Net hairspray (or some other cheapy hairspray) and it will immediately begin to "run". Just rinse quickly and lay it on your washer for your next load!

WoW...what a useful forum!!! Did you know...that you can pour Coke (not Pepsi or any other kind) on tar stains, throw them in the wash, and pour the rest of the liter of Coke into your washer and it works wonders! Gotta get to it soon though!

I think I'd be on the list to shove a shotgun in his belly and ask to go bring the sheriff and let the sheriff ask the questions! Then he'd know you had one sidekick that meant business...your shotgun!

All those who suffer...at home and abroad. "Father, in our Savior's name...we speak their names to You and ask for safe passage wherever they may be in YOUR world. Their names are written on the palm of Your hand, and not one sparrow goes un-noticed to Your watchful eye! Amen!"

We really didn't have much trouble w/Abby. She was 6 wks old (9 lbs.) when we adopted her from a home rescue farm, wrapped her in a towel and carted her a few miles in my arms until we found a tractor supply store. Went in (hubby carried her) and bought a pet taxi and put it in back of van. She rode the rest of the way home in that. Then that night we took the top off, put her towel in it, and set in on the floor on my side of the bed. Then set the alarm for every hour on the hour and packed her tiny butt outside to do her biz. Has no problems with separation anxiety to we are grateful, since for the most part she's with us 24/7 (we're empty nesters and pretty much retired). She's been in a canoe with us, on the fireing range with us, tractor pulls, camps with us in our travel trailer...you name it. You're very blessed to have a little guy that just watches you from the window. Abby would be in ALL kinds of trouble if we left her alone in the house. She's truly a "Lab Brat" in the strictest sense! She can skin the label off a water bottle with her front teeth faster than you can wink! They told us in her puppy class...being labrador retriever is a wonderful breed...being australian shepherd is a wonderful breed. Mix them together and we had a puppy on crack! They told us "she needed you two". Just rattling on and on, but you know how us "doggy people" can be!

Nope not over the TV, but perhaps from your concerns, sutle changes in your body chemistry, tone of voice etc. Wonderful dog.

 

Our new little rescue guy has gone from wailing, when we leave the house, to poppin up in the window to watch when we come and go. He makes us laugh every day.

What kinda pup ya got?

Gofish...! What a terrible thing to happen! How will you ever survive such a thing! LOL

Just wondering...today, when we had the news on about our embassy etc., I don't know if Abby sensed something or what, but she literally "wallered" us to the limit of our patience! When hubby left to do some work for a client, she stayed laid right on top of my feet and even tried to crawl up in my lap (she's 60+ pounds!). Told hubby..."she seems to sense some sort of unrest. Do you suppose she senses it over the tv?" Have any of you ever encountered such a behavior? She's 9 months old now, so we're still learning her temperament.

Is it disabled? I searched the forums for this & couldn't find it. But I get the following when I try.

 

"Action failed: You have reached your quota of positive votes for the day"

I get same message...

I'm a dehydrating fan...and I keep plenty of canned broth to spritz anything I'd need to re-hydrate, and we also have our Berkey to purify water. Fortunately we live in a state that has lots and lots of public water areas (lakes, streams, ponds etc.) so finding water isn't a problem. We also have eight, 55 gallon water barrels for catching water from the metal roof on our homestead property. My sis cans, and is quite experienced at it, but she has a full basement for storage. I just prefer to dehydrate for storage and simplicity. I think you'll find fans of both around these forums!

We all should take note...every time we purchase with a credit card, we take the chance. ONE of the things we must always do is to create an extremely secure passcode, and not use the same one for everything we do online, especially if it involves finances etc. So glad our friend and her card carrier was on their toes!

Chocolate mint! After cutting it, my hands smell really good!

No thumb sucking! LOL Hugs to ya friend!

Go girlf!!!

I've been told that honey is great as a weekly facial too...??? Guess I could try it!

Not really surprising...we only feed Docs Choice, which is only carried at this time by HyVee, but any dog food could be contaminated. Good suggestion to wash hands (which most adults do) after handling it.

This is what public education looks like! (Well, in Chicago, anyway) -

Small wonder they don't want teacher evaluations!

 

Homeschool parents, LEAD ON!!!!

 

 

(And no, I'm not picking just on Chicago. Here's one publicly posted and paid for in South Bend, Indiana.)

Hummmm....they fired 15 UN(ion) teachers?

I still weep and I still feel so angry...I was sitting in a secretarial chair on my then job listening to morning news on the radio, when they announced the first hit. I turned to my computer and located MSNBC (didn't know FOX existed then) and watched in disbelief. Wasn't long until the whole office was gathered around my pc watching with me. then tonight I hear on FOX that they're storming embassy's ...and heard Charles Kraughthammer's solution...at which I say "amen". When will we stop feeding these starving armies that hate us! Just my own thoughts on today...contriversial perhaps, but my thoughts.

Is that a desert horned lizzard?

 

Yeppers...sure was, but a baby one! Loved it's belly being stroked! Nope...aint gonna go there!
