@FarmGirlCarrie We had the Home Ec. class but the teacher was viciously mean, so I still can’t sew beyond fixing a button. I would love to learn!
The Shop teacher was so much nicer. I supposed I should be much better at building bird houses!

I had this conversation with a doc but it began with a different med for my teenager. We declined and it has changed the way I look at most meds now. My dad was on many meds, & has slowly reduced to 4. He feels better than ever. His doc said “Whatever you’re doing, keep it up”!
Patient: "What are the side effects of the statin?"
Doctor: "Some people get muscle aches. Usually mild."
Patient: "And if I get them?"
Doctor: "We'd add naproxen for the pain."
Patient: "Does naproxen have side effects?"
Doctor: "It can irritate the stomach. Reflux, sometimes an ulcer. So we'd add omeprazole to protect it."
Patient: "And omeprazole?"
Doctor: "Long term it lowers your magnesium. Your B12 as well. We'd top those up."
Patient: "With more tablets."
Doctor: "Magnesium, and B12 if the bloods come back low."
Patient: "And the magnesium does what?"
Doctor: "Loosens the bowels. Loperamide settles that."
Patient: "That's six tablets. I walked in with no symptoms."
Doctor: "Could be seven. The statin can raise your blood sugar. We'd watch it, maybe start metformin."
Patient: "And metformin?"
Doctor: "Upsets the stomach. Lowers your B12."
Patient: "We already did B12."
Doctor: "Round we go."
Patient: "Is a single one of these treating something I actually feel?"
Doctor: "No. But your numbers will look excellent."
This Easter, I invite you to look at Jesus, consider what he said and did, and ask for yourself what I believe is the most important question you will ever answer: Did he really leave behind an empty tomb? And if he did, what does that mean for you?
This video was made possible and in collaboration with my friends at @ChildlikeMedia.
@taco_talks I agree with what you said with 1 exception. There are lots of actual Christians that do these things simply because it’s their church tradition and they have not been taught what you just talked about. Not agreeing in practice, but we can still have unity in Christ.
@bumbadum14 To clarify- This interview was not about illegals at all. It has been selectively edited to look that way. She actually runs a very reputable business. The interview is about an employee with LEGAL status that was detained at length. See WCCO for real story.
@WomanDefiner FYI - the video has been edited to give the wrong impression. It’s actually an interview about an employee with LEGAL status that was detained for over a week and the impact of that happening regularly. This interview is not about illegals and they were never discussed.
@giannipov@IngrahamAngle You might want to go to the original story and relisten. The interview was about a detained person that has LEGAL status to work here. She didn’t say anything about illegals at all. That wasn’t the topic.
@SpiceyBits@IngrahamAngle FYI - This is all being presented in a dishonest manner. The full story is about a man that’s working here legally but was detained at length. Illegals were not even mentioned in this interview.
@RoterdamMatthew @Bubblebathgirl FYI - the interview was not about illegals. It was about a man that was working here LEGALLY and was detained for many days anyway. She never said a word about anyone illegal in the entire interview. MN is having issues. Funny how the context was omitted from the post. 🤔
