Kids - Don't Do Drugs!!!

[Wooden_Pony]

See it's dumba$$es like them that cause me to sign my life away in order to buy lye for soap making.

Where are you able to get lye?? I use to buy the Red Devil but they stopped making it.

I make soap too

Mine is from my Great Grandma's journal that she kept since she wa a little girl so they are VERY rough, chunky, and old looking.

I am tempted to get some of yours just to change up the soaps around my house

Most soap suppliers online have lye. I get mine from Bitter Creek. You can buy it in 2 pound cans. I usually buy 50 pounds at a time if not more so they probably have federal agents watching me through the woods.

LOL!!! My friend is the manager at our local hardware store that I use to get mine from, she use to order me boxes and tease me that one day I will have an unexpected knock on the door

Thank you for the info we are running low on soap here I have one batch curing and then I am out of soap here.

Thanks again Southernchick, hey if you want your first egg painted let me know I also handpaint blown eggs!​

I knew there was a reason to go into law enforcement, but I would probably be watching the 300lb drug lord, not the soapmaker, just my luck I guess the pay isn't good enough to be getting shot at.

Its jearks like that who make it hard for grown-up's to trust responsible teens (like yours truly

).

Agreed entirely. I get old ladies crossing the road to avoid me, and edging away at the bus stop. Probably because of the large number of recent news stories about teenagers shooting each other.

They're scared of all 4'11" 90lbs of me . . . just because I'm a teenager.

My boys ask the same thing. My youngest son is 14 and Type 1 Diabetic, diagnosed a little over a year ago. He takes four injections of insulin a day, sometimes more, for the rest of his life. Insulin is to him what oxygen is to us. He can tell you first hand that he would rather not have to inject himself to stay alive. I feel the same. But at least he is alive and he knows first hand that it is no fun and therefore would never consider the use of illegal drugs or alcohol. If he were to do either it would kill him. Insulin does not mix with that stuff. These kids need to walk a mile in a teen diabetics shoes, then they would see it is no picnic to HAVE to do drugs to stay alive.
Alot of what these teens do these days is a cry for attention. And yes dare I say it, parenting has alot to do with it too. I always ask, "why, who, where?" When it comes to my boys going out. With Jon's diabetes, I am especially over protective, I'm the first to admit it. But when you face your own mortality on a daily basis as he does your eyes get opened to the reality that death can come to you in a split second. This is a picture of me and Jon, it was taken a month before the diagnosis, he was 13. Now 14, and towering over me even more he is doing great managing his diabetes. I just wanted to share this with you all. I am so proud of my son!

Sorry the pic is so small.

Its worse when the lady next door ask's me to go skateboard somewhere else because she dosen't want me causing trouble near her house. un
