Free Republic

This is a vanity post, I need Freeper help. I am looking into starting a publishing business for educational, spiritual, and short story works. I have never run a business so this is something I will be doing from scratch. I have another teacher who wants to be my partner in this venture. I need help in all areas and wanted to come to the one place where I know the smartest people are- FreeRepublic. Thank you for any and all help you can provide!

I need to access answers to posts I made here several years ago. I have never deleted any comments to me or by me. I know the information is there. Do any of you know how I can search previous posts/comments to me? I do not have time to go through page after page after page of responses.

Freepers I need your help. I want to start a business revolving around crafts and creating things. I would love to be able to partner with veterans groups or mental health places to get people suffering from depression using their hands and creativity to make things. Being active helps with depression and I know a lot of people are hurting. I am speaking with a company tomorrow about getting started with this. I need help finding grants to help me get started, I can get some $ from the bank.

BARNSTABLE, Mass. (WPRI) ─ An unexpected visitor at a Massachusetts wildlife hospital Wednesday gave the phrase “through sickness and health” a whole new meaning. The story begins with a Canada goose named Arnold. Arnold and his mate, according to Cape Wildlife Center in Barnstable, have lived on a pond near the facility for several years.

Freeprs I'm asking for prayers for my husband who is fighting Covid. He was diagnosed last Saturday. His symptoms have not improved, he is going today for an Infusion treatment of antibodies. I am asking for prayers for his healing. I am worried about him.

With what transpired yesterday with Apple, Google, and Twitter actively trying to censor conservative, maybe we all need to dump the stock we hold in these companies. I am considering dumping my iPhone for a Samsung. Of course, once Burden takes office the Chinese phones will hit the market here and Apple will be displaced in the market.

I am asking for prayers for my sweet friend Beth. She was recently diagnosed with early stages of dementia. Beth was a tremendous source of strength and courage for me when I lost my mother to cancer back in 1997. I tried to help her as she watched her own mother languish for several years as dementia took her piece by piece. Beth worked with my husband for over 20 years until recently when she had to retire due to "episodes" brought on by the same disease that took her mom. For Christmas, I made her what I hoped was...

“I intended to paint a cross in this particular painting, but I did it in the shape of a star, because I think the cross and the message of the cross is central to the Christmas story,” she said, adding that she took a break from painting once the cross was finished. “When I walked back into the room, where it sat on the easel, I immediately saw another cross that I did not intend to be there, and it is perfectly positioned at the feet of Jesus.” When the painting was done, she found that a lot of people...

I have a vanity, legal question to pose to the great minds of the Freeper Nation.

I asked for prayers for my dear friend Michelle who had recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. Freepers- we want to thank all of you who lifted her and her family in prayers- it worked! By the Grace of God the doctors say they got all of the cancer with surgery- she doesn't need any chemo just a few doses of radiation!!!! God is Great and so are ya'll!!!

I am asking for prayers of strength and healing for my friend Michele- she is truly a salt-of-the-Earth type person and my moral compass. She's a strong Christian woman and a great wife, mother, daughter, and friend. She recently found out she has cancer and I am asking for prayers of strength and recovery for her.

What I witnessed today while I was in line at the Chick-Fil-A located in the Magnolia Mall in Florence, SC is why I love this place. I had placed my order and was waiting for my drinks when an older gentleman walked up to the server next to mine. When the young man behind the counter asked for his order, the gentleman stuttered, then got a look of fear in his eyes. "I've forgotten why I'm here and what I was going to get." The young server reached past the register, patted this man on his arm and said, "That's...

My ten year old daughter is trying to help animals in need. She took it upon herself and called our local shelter to see what they need to help take care of the animals. Here’s what the gentleman told her: they need cat and dog food; kitty litter; blankets; paper towels; beds; collars; harnesses; kiddie pools and toys. We are going to get a few of these and take them to our local shelter. I challenge each of you to choose at least one of these items and take it to your local shelter and let them know you are...

My daughter is getting bullied at her school- we have spoken to the teachers, principals, and parents about it. My husband was in the Principal's office just this morning again talking about it. When I picked her up from school, she tells me she got hit and punched by a classmate while the teachers were not supervising the students. My husband and I have taught her to fight back but she's so kind hearted she doesn't want to hurt anybody. I need help finding a good lawyer in SC who can take my case because I know going this route...
