I thought Jim Bob explained they could wear other tacky outfits besides the Christmas sweaters if they wanted to. Maybe I'm dreaming up this part. Ugly Christmas sweaters tend to be huge. And I expect they must have felt that they wanted to -- for fun's sake -- and needed to -- for TeeVee's sake -- look different every year? But if you bought everybody another ugly Christmas sweater every year your home would soon fill up with them.... And if you just traded them around from person to person each year, then the party would look the same every year, just with different heads sticking out of the same sweaters. ..... And that wouldn't be all that much fun, seems to me..... .I think going with "wacky or semi-wacky Christmas wear" instead was a good idea........Spurge sort of looks like a combo of Dickensian Christmas and Little Lord Fauntleroy Christmas. Nice change of pace from an ugly sweater, I think. As Jana's outfit is, to me anyway. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/73802-jd-and-abbie-captured-before-the-rapture/page/49/#findComment-6313258

I got a second piercing in my ears at the same time. No problem at all for either of us. I think it's more about the upkeep than where you actually get a needle stuck through your earlobe. Unless you go somewhere truly filthy, I don't see that there's any reason the procedure itself would result in infection. Of course, I may be wrong, so someone is welcome to explain the differences to me. It just seems that as long as you keep it clean as it heals after the fact, it should be a fairly safe thing regardless of whether a doctor or a store which does them probably daily and would no doubt have been shut down if there was any history of things going wrong actually does the deed. Places like Claire's use a piercing gun, which are absutely impossible to sterilize adequately between customers. A qualified piercing shop will autoclave instruments it reuses (the way surgical instruments are) and open new, sterile equipment in front of you for single use products. The "care" instructions Claire's give out are similarly dangerous and dismal. The last thing you should be putting on healing tissue is rubbing alcohol (or peroxide). It's the easiest way to lose a new piercing. If you wouldn't get a tattoo or hell even a flu shot from a teenager at the mall with equipment they can't clean thoroughly, please don't get a piercing there. Crappy consequence is localized infection. Serious consequences are MRSA, various kinds of hepatitis, and whatver said teenager has on his/her hands. Did Anna pierce her daughters' ears? Any of the other Duggars? I don't recall it.. 1 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/73802-jd-and-abbie-captured-before-the-rapture/page/49/#findComment-6313356
sixlets August 27, 2020 Share August 27, 2020 Someone needs to wear this gem in December. I can't speak to how Claire's does ear piercing, even though that's where I had mine done in 4th grade, but I worked at Piercing Pagoda in college. At the time, the gun was sterilized after each use, and we were subjected to health department visits, unannounced at any time. Regardless if you go to a store in the mall or a tattoo/piercing parlor, that's not necessarily going to stop someone from using alcohol on a new piercing. I would venture to say that if you're going to get an infection, self-care, or lack thereof, is more than likely the culprit. 3 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/73802-jd-and-abbie-captured-before-the-rapture/page/49/#findComment-6313517

Back in the olden days when I was a little girl, my grandma would take me places on the bus. She would always point out the "maiden ladies" (no clue how or if she really knew) and say they had beautiful skin and hands because they didn't have to take care of anyone. The idea of maiden ladies now is quite funny, but, we know a lot of "maiden ladies" have to take care of themselves so maybe what she meant was the idea of a husband and all that entails.
