I know of some people who are convinced Planet X is going to hit the earth and have dug pits to drop cargo containers into. Stocking up on food, etc., etc.
If a planet hits the earth, I don't think anything is going to protect anybody, just "poof". Supposed to happen before Easter next year, but it's been put off several times.

(no, I don't buy it, but small towns are ripe with conspiracies and doomsday believers, the "black helicopter", "Go Pack", "Doomsday Preppers" groups)

We have awesome meteor showers all through August down here. It's a nightly occurrence. I'll have to make sure I'm outside the 11th-13th.

I do think something is "there", and it's right on time. But I don't think it's going to hit the earth.

Awww, so sorry for you Dmacky. Please trust that it will get better, slowly but surely. Sending hugs your way.
 
Dmacky so sorry to read this sad news. Having to let go of a beloved animal companion is so hard.

:grouphug:

ETA when you are ready, www.petloss.com is a wonderful resource. It was an emotional lifeline for me when I had to put down my last two pups in 2004 and 2006.

Bernina! I never knew....

:facepalm: Ok, here's the skinny:

My mom had a Bernina sewing machine 18 months before I was born.....thank God she didn't have a Singer.

It does kind of help that there's the Swiss Mountain range by that name, the sewing machine is made in Switzerland, and is a truly incredible piece of machinery. I did learn how to sew on it too.
Mom bought her 2nd one back in 1987, but I haven't a clue if she has it still or uses it. She bought the newer version because it did more "things", and gave the old one to my ex-SIL. Figure she bought the 1st in 1959, so it had an exceptional run of about 36 years w/mom.

From what I found on Google, "Bernina" is also French, but I don't have any French, or Swiss ancestry. I've gone by Nina, Bernie, and Red because many people couldn't pronounce my name. School teachers usually just said my last name the first day of school....probably wouldn't have gone to well if they mispronounced my name. :floorlaugh:

.......... my folks were probably just shocked to have their first child be a red head and just named me after the first thing they glanced at when they got home from the hospital. My sibs were more fortunate, blond hair, blue eyes, tanned like they were Mexican, typical Swedes, Stephen Micheal, Jonathan David, and Kjersten <------actually have someone in the family tree way back by that name, but my sis had to wait 2+ years before it became official. My mom wanted Karina, dad wanted Kjersten, dad won, but it the mean time, my 18 month younger bro and me called her "no nothing" while my folks called her "no name". (Pronounced "Sure- sten") Us girls didn't get middle names. I felt cheated.:shame:

If I had been the first grand dauhter on my dad's side, I would have been named "Stacy" after my grandpa. But, I was the 2nd, so I dodged THAT bullet. Imagine being named after the man who would later molest you?

That's the back story about my name.

I'm so sorry, my dear friend :( It's like a piece of us are gone when we lose our beloved fur babies. (((((HUGS)))))
 
The results are in for the Salt Treatment' for my ear. I was fair and tried it with salt and without salt. They both made the ear feel better and with both being a cool compress I can't honestly say if the slat worked or not, but the coolness of the cloth did help quit a bit :)

I have a few observations:

If the 2nd coming is after the destruction of Israel, why are Christian Americans the biggest contributors to that Nation when they *may* be putting a glitch in the plan?
And why are Christians so fearful of Revelations when it's "The Plan"?
Aren't Christians kind of bummed that it's 144,000 virgin, male Jews, who never told a lie, that will be taken up? And if they're supposed to be from the 12 tribes, aren't 2 tribes totally gone?
Why aren't Christians embracing the "End" if it means the return of Jesus?
I also thought the Old Testament God was one of wrath, and the New Testament was a God of love.
I think if I was Christian, I'd be majorly psyched about the Last Days.

Just some random thoughts. Doesn't make a bit of sense, stopping the "inevitable", I say "Bring it on", I'm up for an adventure.

My mom used aspirin and water mixed into a paste for bug bites. It worked.
