How to lower a fever without meds?
lovemytea replied to klmama's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I hope he's feeling better now. My mom always put us in a tepid bath. Generally within a few minutes it was coming down. Keep in mind that sometimes a fever is a good thing. It is the reaction of fighting off an infection. If it continues, I'm sure you'll take him to the doctor to find the source. -
Thanks. I'll check them out.

Does anyone know of the cheapest place to buy Keurig K-pods? I love my Keurig, but hate the price of the pods.

Were they married at the time of her death? If they were, I'd let him decide what to do. If I were the child, I'd want all of my mom's things. You can always put them in plastic bins in the attic and let the dc have them when they move out. So far as a picture of the two of them, I would keep the pictures in the kids' rooms. I'm divorced from my son's father and my husband and I had no problem with him keeping a picture of me and his father in his room. In fact, we supported that because he is still his father.

My understanding about not having any other gods before our heavenly Father, is this: anything that takes you away from worshipping God is having a god before him. In other words, alcohol can be a god. If you are drunk all the time and not in worship, that is your god. If you work all the time and not taking time to worship, that is your god. Having pictures of your children on your mantle, is not a god. If you don't worship God but worship your children, then they are your god. A god can be anything that you put before our Father in heaven.

I'm simple minded when it comes to Christianity. Many theologians and scholars will try and make Christianity very complicated, but it really isn't. I'm not going to read the Bible and tear it to shreds trying to make it say something that I want to believe. I do think there are many, many people who will do that so they can feel they will be in heaven one day with our heavenly Father and still continue as they please. That's not how it is. God said that no one goes to the Father except through Jesus Christ, our Lord. I believe that with all my heart. I don't believe I can go into the forest (and I'm not picking or poking fun) and absorb the nature around me and chant little songs about the god of trees or dirt or rivers and worship the things of the earth, and God will accept me into His kingdom, because I would be worshipping the wrong thing. I worship only our Lord and Savior. Not the things He made. I thank him for the things he made; for the beauty of the earth. I thank him for sending His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for my sins so that I will have eternal life with him. John 3:16 said it simply enough that a child can understand. "For God so love the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believe in Him will have ever lasting life." You can't worship the earth and all that is in it, and worship God. It doesn't work that way. "You shall have no other gods before me." http://bibleresources.bible.com/passagesearchresults.php?passage1=Exodus+20&version=47

Is anyone watching Wife Swap?
lovemytea replied to LizzyBee's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I have to agree that the "uneducated" family could use a few lessons in proper grammar, but at least they were nice. The jerk from England (or as the visiting wife said, "British") was the most unkind person I have ever heard. I wonder what shape his front lawn is in today? -
cooking question....need help quick
lovemytea replied to cherryblossom's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Don't know if this will work but you might could use a dishtowel placed inside a colander and then pour the stew through. It'll be a pain because you'll have all the veggies and meat to contend with but it's a little better than having to wait. Good luck! -
And, once again, I'm saying you can only know the things of which you were introduced. I did read his work and it was incredibly depressing. I have "introduced" my dds to him because I feel it's necessary. But, my point is, not all have been. I was simply pointing out that one isn't educated because of knowing, and one isn't uneducated because of not knowing, EAP.
