    Replaced 2 Broken Chromebook Laptop Screens!

    A half hour is pretty swift work! My DH replaced his busted iPhone screen himself. Quite a headache looking for miniscule screws that got dropped on the carpet. Nothing like the satisfaction of doing something like that yourself though. :thumbsup

    Turmeric paste for skin cancer

    I'm sorry, I did forget to report back! It did cause the outer most part of the tumor to fall off initially and the salve seemed to be antiseptic and soothing to the wound. Beneath the skin, the tumor grew so rapidly that it reached about the size of a golf ball or so. We finally resorted to...

    Turmeric paste for skin cancer

    I applied the turmeric to the tumor last night and bandaged it. Removed the bandage this morning to let the wound air out. Sometime later she stood up to stretch and shook herself out and a large piece of the tumor just fell off! About a marble-sized chunk, not just a scab. This kind of...

    Turmeric paste for skin cancer

    Aloe would be a good addition. Thanks for the idea! I'm glad to hear it doesn't sting the skin. I think this spot must itch or hurt some anyway since she won't leave it alone. I am desperate to try something that might help. The vet was no help. They gave her prednisone which didn't shrink...

    Are posters here HAPPIER having few men in SS Forums?

    Compartmentalized...that is the word I was looking for. I think men just like things more concise. And anymore there is literally a forum for any and everything out there. I was thinking about that, how this applies to @Nifty . :) I think TEG seems to have a very nearly 50/50 split of...

    Are posters here HAPPIER having few men in SS Forums?

    Just something I have observed, but out there on the internet there are very specific forums for things like auto mechanics, firewood/woodstove maintence, small engine repair, remodeling, etc. that seem to be almost entirely populated by men. I've even seen entire forums dedicated to one...

    Turmeric paste for skin cancer

    Hello, :frow I don't get over here very often, but I was wondering if anyone here had any experience with using turmeric to treat skin cancer? Not for me, but for my dog. I have been reading up on it and they say it has real potential for skin cancer (and stomach/colon cancers, anything it...

    How do I get started?

    We're getting ready to start Pre-K next year. I'm gonna join up with my county homeschool association and let them point me in the right direction. Do you know if you have one for your county or state?

    Sufficient Self's Bible Study Group

    I'd just had this same conversation with my aunt who is an atheist a couple days ago. I posted this article on my fb because I found it curious, how worked up the study's authors were over findings that most teachers will not teach evolution with conviction. My husband and I teach a summer...

    Ladies! Cut your own hair?

    I did it! Got snowed in and bored and I just went for it. I used the pull it straight up and trim off an inch or two method. I have gotten so many compliments on it. I can't believe it; I really was afraid I butchered it because I have very straight hair. Only thing is, it doesn't take much...

    Yeah, Lyme disease causes joint pain in people. Probably does in dogs too!

    BarredBuff's Homesteading Shenanigans

    I'm getting more strict with my flock too nowadays, so I think you made the right decision. I've never yet had a poor layer improve over time. Usually it is something internally not right with their plumbing or otherwise just bad layer genetics. Gotta work for food in my coop! :P Enjoy your...

    dog help...not an emergency, though

    I've had my dog on a liquid glucosamine/chondroitin supplement for about 6 months now and it has really helped eliminate any signs of arthritis she had. She was very stiff and favored one hip last winter, but this winter she is fine. It takes about a month to kick in though! So that won't...
