Get Vaccinated or Get laid Off
by StephaneLaliberte ini’m personally for the vaccine, took two shots and would take a third if asked.
but i know a friend of mine that doesn’t want to take the vaccine who works for the government and now is faced with this choice: get vaccinated or get laid off.
i don’t agree with this measure as it is totalitarian and runs against my core belief in individual freedom.. now, with that being said, what i don’t understand is that my friend still won’t get vaccinated.

She examines her skillset and goes self employed.
If UK - use the website called jobserve - I suggest she sets the type of job she is looking for to 'contract'.
If in UK and you work under a contract you might need to either go with an umbrella company or set up as your own limited company.
As a contract worker you can be sacked on the spot. But if you do a good job they come running after you for more. No need to cry. Just be brave and go solo and deal with your finances etc methodically. You may have to travel but you can negotiate to work from home or just go into the office when needed. You'll make a lot of money for the HR firm and a bundle for yourself. She'll be as employed as the rugby ball in a scrum.
Do you know the reason most people don't do this? They have mortgages. Top tip. Don't take a mortage unless you have to. I have watched people use this method and quickly get the money to cover the cost of their houses. So they buy the house outright, then only work 6 months in the year if that. If you are a couple and have a mortgage - see if one of you can go as a contractor. Advice - be supportive and loving towards one another. In the end your loving kindness, warm encouragement and gentleness will be key to making this work.
There's always a way out.
(1 Corinthians 10:13) . . .No temptation has taken you except what is common to men. But God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear, but along with the temptation he will also make the way out in order for you to be able to endure . . .
PS - Contract workers are preferred by employers because in the end... they are cheaper. The employer can stop and start their services with no obligation on their part.
PPS - if you get this working for you buy a caravan and move it round the country, it'll save hotel bills and give you portable holiday home. -

Just changed out the summer quilts.
by GrreatTeacher ini just washed all my summer quilts and put them away for the season.
i brought out the thicker and heavier winter quilts and put them on the beds.. i love patchwork quilts and have a couple of heirloom ones actually made out of the scraps of old family clothes.
my mom can point to a fabric and say," oh, that was a dress of mine when i was little," or, "that was my mother's apron.".

Never done it myself and I am guessing it might be expensive but some have a sheepskin mattress cover with the wooly fluffy bits facing up and sheet to cover it.
I think the sheepskin keeps you warm in winter but cool in summer and it relieves pressure points.
If you were in hospital with a bad leg they'd put ankle sheepskin bootie slippers on you to protect your heels against pressure.

My friend Tadua has done a lot of research on the Flood - here is a link work he has done related to the Bible Book of Genesis. This is Part 1 - you'll see there are many other parts. So browse around for what interests you.
The Bible Book of Genesis – Geology, Archaeology, and Theology - Part 1 - Understand The Word of God
He has also carefully put together an interactive map with markers for every Flood legend and Myth that has been documented from around the world.

I'd like to see your quilts too great teacher - though I'd never make one. Or if I did it wouldn't look great.
Here in UK it is time to put the fans away and maybe get the hot water bottles out or put on a thicker duvet.
Petrol prices are going up so it could mean panic buying season has just started. Not sure.

Good news and bad news --- pandemic and Kingdom Halls.
by pistolpete inu/aposta-fish from exjw reddit.
good news bad news pandemic and kingdom halls.. first the bad news, coming out of israel - one of the first countries to push total vaccination.
the news is the vaccine especially the pfizer one looks like it wears off and hospital rates have gone up for those that have been vaccinated.

Did they modify some of the buildings so they were easier to sell?
Could they sell them to themselves?
Unless someone is going into maintain the unused halls, they'd get musty.
