Amber @AmbiePam (96712) • United States 8h

My sweet, long suffering father drove me to Tulsa this morning to pick up a prescription of mine. Yes, we drove 2 1/2 hours because it was the closest pharmacy that makes it. They said they can’t ship it because it has to remain...

Kristen Howe Cute photos of your family. That's a long drive to the pharmacy. Shame they don't ship them out, or you have a closest pharmacy near you.

April Fools

Jo Ann @akalinus (44228) • United States 7h

My brother loves to pull pranks on people. One April Fools day, near Bend Oregon, he had a big thick section of hose in his car. He came to a dirt road and inspiration hit him. He pulled the hose to the road and dragged it...

Kristen Howe How kind of you to donate those 2 comforters to the animal shelters. I'm not sure they can use them for the kennels since it's so big, unless it's blankets, pillowcases, towels, washcloths to lay down. I can ask tomorrow when I volunteer in the afternoon....

Marjorie Taylor Greene says that federal workers don't deserve their paychecks or their jobs

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (122081) • United States 26 Feb

Wow. That is an outrageous statement. In a House Oversight Committee hearing yesterday she said that federal workers don't deserve paychecks because their jobs don't generate revenue for the government. Um not every job's purpose...

Kristen Howe Ouch. I would say they would vote for the other person, hopefully democratically. Wish we can impeach Trump and deport Musk. They're both not making America great again. It's the total opposite.

Safety cots - are they still around?

Judy Evans @JudyEv (349380) • Rockingham, Australia 12 Feb
