I posted this in response to our Japanese friends who asked to see beauty. I am so lucky to have traveled so much, but truly, Midwest beauty is so underrated 🥰

I agree. A couple of weeks ago my hubby was in Omaha caring for his mum. I needed to call him for an important piece of information and it was great that I was able to look and see that they were still driving to the appointment so I could call him. I would have waited otherwise. On the other hand, there are some crazy control freak folks out there who abuse the privilege. Marry well folks.

tbh I think it’s weird that some couples don’t share location with one another

@garonnevik You are a couple of weeks behind me, but these lovelies jumped into my cart the other day🤣. Added a few more yesterday. On a side note, one of my favorite places to get plants is a lovely Amish place around Alexandria.

I stopped by the nursery today. It’s not time to buy this year’s plants yet, but I just wanted to see them. It was open and half the plants were out but not the signs or prices or displays yet. I walked, and took notes, and breathed in all that lovely oxygen. Happy.

@ThrillaRilla369 Average service would leave 90 good service 100, over the top 125. Even poor service would probably leave 80. Worked in the industry for many years.

You're eating out and the bill is $74 - what are you tipping? Be honest, I'm trying to prove a point.

@LASDJordan @Savsays @MyrtlesGirdles Excellent breakdown.

@Savsays @MyrtlesGirdles I walk you through the assault against Savanah Hernandez in the video below. This family provoked the situation and then assaulted Savanah. I narrate the videos from a LE perspective. youtu.be/ZRcXJLLziys?si…

THIS IS WHO THE LEFT IS: This left-wing asshole, Brian Shapiro, has been in my DMs threatening me with lawsuits, calling me a "f*cking idiot" and telling me that I've been faking my injuries all week because he doesn't like my politics. He's apparently set to go on OANN and Fox news and states that he's going to "blast me" for lying?? He is now blaming the backlash against the Ostroushko family on me, stating that it's my fault they've been fired from their jobs. He's been sending me extremely aggressive messages all week and I normally wouldn't respond to this type of behavior but it's truly unhinged and he's promised to help the family sue me for....defamation. This is who the left-wing is. They hate you, will assault you, blame you for it, try to raise money off of it and then sue you for defending yourself. Truly disgusting people.

@mr_seans Tell me about it. Can’t wrap my head around the actions and attitude of my daughter lately!

@Netpetjet1st We didn’t raise them like that. It’s shocking.

My kids and other family members treat me so poorly I’ve decided ‘I Don’t Care Anymore’ by Phil Collins is my theme song.

@musings_blonde So beautiful, must have been an amazing walk!

@Netpetjet1st It comes from a tree! It might be called a poplar tulip

Came across something I’ve never seen in the forest when hiking. Have you seen these?

@musings_blonde Never seen anything like it, absolutely gorgeous! Do you know what they are?

@Netpetjet1st Isn’t it pretty? There were petals all over the forest floor and I kept wondering what they were

@Johnny_Joey @SKarten2 Dave stopped taking them from the VA after getting both flu A and flu B the same year after being vaccinated. Meanwhile, I, who never takes them was flu free that year, and haven’t been sick since the beginning of COVID.

8 years in the Corps, flu vax every year, got the flu 4 times. 14 years out of the Corps, haven’t had a flu vax since, had the flu 4 times. My anecdotal evidence suggests this is the correct call Skipper.

@TheMuppetPastor When you have dogs that think the bathroom is a watering station, you always shut the door!

People who leave the bathroom door closed when nobody’s inside: why?!?!?

@musings_blonde I finally piped up, and they settled down after laughing and teasing. I think they were shocked a grownup would question them. They left shortly thereafter but my grands were sad, just trying to make friends.

@Netpetjet1st That would drive me nuts

Because stupid Iowans think Chuck is a nice guy. He and Betty really need to retire but he is a placeholder for his grandson’s political ambitions. This won’t win me any awards with my neighbors but really people! Let Chuck and Betty enjoy a Blizzard and dinner at That Place for the rest of his days. I wish him well but come on — enough already!

Why is a 92 year old man in Congress?

@SwoneKenny So glad to hear he has been released. Will continue to pray along side you Ken.

My cousin, Doug, was released after 54 days in the hospital. Thank you for your prayers. Please keep praying for his battle against Stage 4 cancer. 🙏💜🙏

@kuhb00m @SarahTheBanned Ah yes, the Romans 1 version of the Bible 😉

@SarahTheBanned I'm sure it's in Today's New Revised Enhanced Your Truth Version

The Book of Enoch is false gospel. Christians need to stay away from that!!!!#PutThatInYourPipe

@DavidLimbaugh @grok I should have made it clearer that Fr. Robinson is Anglican. His post simply made me think more deeply about the schism between Catholics and Protestants regarding this and many other issues.

Fascinating. I just had a very long conversation with @Grok regarding dispensationalism, particularly as it relates to Catholicism versus Protestantism, after seeing a post by Fr. Calvin Robinson. Your point that dispensationalism is being tossed around pejoratively is spot on. Many evangelicals stand in a much more nuanced space—the already/not yet—allowing for God’s covenant promises to Israel. I appreciate your voice and hope that others will be willing to entertain a more nuanced approach to this topic as well. Godspeed.

The following comment is not intended to cause further strife between evangelicals and Catholics, but the opposite: I think there's been an effort to smear Israel-supporting evangelicals by flippantly calling them "Dispensationalists," meaning, essentially, that they are knuckle-dragging heretics. Certain people use the label pejoratively to suggest that we Israel-supporting evangelicals are Dispensationalists who want to hasten the End Times and so are willing to support policies aimed at doing so, even if against the interests of the US. A couple of points on that. Not all people who believe that the Abrahamic Covenant land promise was Israel-specific and is eternal (and still in force) are Dispensationalists. I, for one, firmly believe the land promise portion of the Abrahamic Covenant is Israel specific and still in force. But I don't consider myself a Dispensaitonalist, which involves more issues. In fact, the late, revered John MacArthur was not a dispensationalist but did believe the land promise is to Israel specifically and for that purpose the church did not replace Israel. If I remember correctly, he said that sound, intellectually honest exegesis doesn't lead to that conclusion. But a more important point is this: I would wager that the overwhelming majority of Bible-believing evangelicals do not believe we should try to pro-actively hasten the End Times. We are not to know the time of the Great Tribulation, etc. We are not to concern ourselves with the "when." Because we believe in God's sovereignty (which is not incompatible with free will, in my opinion) and because we believe it is not for us to know when the End Times will occur, we should definitely not proactively try to usher it in. I am sure there are some who believe we should but I would think they are quite on the fringe. I admit that I support Israel for theological reasons. I believe God's Covenant with Israel as to the land is permanent and I believe He meant what He said that those who bless Israel will be blessed and those who curse Israel will be cursed. I also support Israel as a strong ally for a host of other reasons. My theological support for Israel does not mean I would subordinate the interests of the US to those of Israel and it does not exempt Israel or immunize it from criticism. I also don't expect others to share my belief or support Israel because of my theological beliefs about it. But I have a right to allow my theological beliefs and my overall Christian worldview to inform my policy positions, just like everyone has a right to do the same with their own worldview. So please don't fall for the notion that all evangelical supporters of Israel are Dispensationlists and especially that they want to hasten the End Times. None in my orbit want to do that. They may say, "I hope Jesus returns soon," but they don't go further and say, "So let's do everything we can to facilitate that." That would be such a presumptuous and biblically disobedient posture. I think history and scripture support my view that Israel is the apple of God's eye. As I and others have written, no nation in history has been dispersed for more than 5 or so generations and retained its ethnic identity and language, but Israel did. It not only retained it but in 1948, some 1900 years after it was routed by Rome in 70 AD it came back, miraculously, to the land. God had his hand in that. Then Israel, against all odds, won two wars against multiple surrounding nations committed to its destruction and extinction. We can go on and on-looking at the amazing things the Jewish people have done in that little nation and how advanced they are -- and how sophisticated they are and how amazing their intelligence and military forces are -- consider the beepers (otherworldly). Their success has by no means been all because the US has supported her, though our support has been very important. So, bottom line, believe what you want about Israel. Believe the church replaced Israel for all purposes, but I don't. I believe the Bible is clear that when God promised Abraham He would bless all nations through him he meant Jews and Gentiles alike and he was referring to the Gospel -- way back in Genesis. So yes, certain promises in the Abrahamic Covenant do extend to Gentiles. But not the land promise. And from a Christian standpoint (again in my view, because by no means do I speak for all evangelicals) God isn't done with the Jewish people in any way. Read Romans 11. They are the vine and we are the branches grafted in. You can believe if you wish that we Israel-supporting evangelicals are all sitting around reading the Scofield Bible. I've never read it. Don't let the trouble-makers scare you into thinking Israel-supporting evangelicals are up to no good and would ever subordinate the interests of the US for Israel. Don't believe they would hasten the End Times. The trouble-makers just want to make you think we're crazy and reckless to further alienate us against Israel, and to divide us for other reasons. Not true. Do with this what you will, but I'm trying to lay this out as honestly as I can. The entire field of dispensationalism is more complex and I see no reason to go into that, especially since I don't consider myself one. Thank me for my attention to these matters.

@jeffcharlesjr Thanks 😊 good advice!

1. I love the writing part and coming up with the stories. That's what gets the dopamine going for me. 2. I can't say there's anything I hate about it yet since it's still new to me. 3. Advice: Don't procrastinate. Start writing. You don't have to have the whole story figured out first.

@LibertyCappy Because I am on my way home from church ??? 🤷‍♀️

Why are you on your phone and not at church? 🤨
