I am so excited that I have Variations twice a week this year unlike last year which was only one! It is my favorite class.

At the beginning of September, I will be starting to volunteer at the mission on Fridays and Saturdays. I was looking at my schedule to find where I could add volunteer dates and at the same time line it up so I will have a ride to the site since I don't have a license yet.

Not to mention that soon, I will be starting to learn how to drive! I am going to start the theory course next month and once I finish that and get my learner's license, I can do behind-the-wheel with my dad, so I am ready when I turn 16 next year to get my provisional license! It will make everything so much easier when I can drive myself back and forth instead of depending on Mom and Dad since they are both very busy as well.

While gaming today, I had a wonderful conversation with someone in my guild. It's a Christian guild, and we were talking about some of the things I was learning in my coursework. Apparently he's some sort of Bible teacher? I can't remember exactly what he said. They are all very nice though, and it was wonderful to talk about all of that with someone. It was sweet, because he and another officer in the guild said they felt very protective over me because of my age and they both have daughters too. They even said my parents could just the Discord, but I told them that my parents trusted me and could always ask me to login if they wanted to see for themselves, but I already showed them. They thought it was nice that they do Bible studies and prayer meetings along with guild things.

I cannot believe that it is the weekend already. My first week went by terribly quick. I dread that next week might be more intense! But what is learning without a challenge?

7 Things to Consider before Starting a Medicine Dropshipping Business

The Global pharmaceutical market is estimated to be worth $1.6 trillion. This clearly shows that there is a massive demand for medicines across the globe.

No matter which country you live in, healthcare is a major expense in everyone’s life, and people understand that there is a huge demand for reliable online medicine stores.

Physical medicine stores often lack a variety of medicine products, and the prices for medical supplies in offline stores are generally higher. A lot of people have started medicine drop shipping services and are delivering medicines around the world. Even though it is a pretty lucrative business opportunity, there are various things that you should consider before you start a medicine dropshipping business.

Here are 7 crucial factors to consider before starting your medicine dropshipping business:

1. Understand Legal and Regulatory Requirements

The pharmaceutical industry operates under strict regulations to ensure public safety. Before launching your business, familiarize yourself with the laws in your target markets. These may include licensing requirements, restrictions on prescription drug sales, and standards for handling patient data. Failure to comply with these regulations can lead to severe penalties or business shutdowns.

To ensure compliance, consider consulting legal professionals with expertise in healthcare regulations. You may also need a pharmacy license or a partnership with a licensed pharmacist to meet legal requirements in certain jurisdictions. Only once you have obtained all the necessary licenses and permits should you start your business, or else you will always struggle with legal complications.

2. Choose a Niche

The pharmaceutical market is vast, covering everything from over-the-counter medications to prescription drugs, herbal supplements, and specialized treatments. Selecting a specific niche can help you target a well-defined audience and establish a competitive edge.

For example, focusing on herbal supplements or diabetic care products can attract a dedicated customer base. Conduct market research to identify high-demand or underserved niches that align with your interests and capabilities.

3. Find Reliable Suppliers

Your suppliers are the backbone of your medicine dropshipping business. Partnering with reputable and licensed suppliers like Dev Medical ensures that your customers receive authentic and safe medications. Reliable suppliers should also meet regulatory standards and offer efficient delivery services to maintain customer trust.

Before committing to a supplier, verify their credentials and check reviews or references from other clients. Ideally, choose suppliers that provide a wide range of products to cater to diverse customer needs.

4. Build a User-Friendly Website

To run an online dropshipping business, it is critical to have a user-friendly and secure website. Having features like product search filters, prescription upload options, and robust customer support tools will ease out customer’s life and enhance the shopping experience.

Invest in professional web development to create a platform that is visually appealing and easy to navigate. Integrate secure payment gateways to protect customer transactions and build credibility.

5. Plan Your Marketing Strategy

A well-thought-out marketing strategy is essential to stand out in the competitive e-commerce space. Since trust is paramount in the healthcare industry, focus on building credibility and educating your audience. Use social media campaigns, email marketing, and targeted ads to reach your audience effectively.

Additionally, to become a trustworthy medicine dropshipper, you need to create engaging content such as blogs, FAQs, and videos that address common healthcare concerns. Educational content not only builds trust but also positions your business as a reliable source of information.

6. Understand Shipping and Return Policies

Efficient shipping is critical in the pharmaceutical business, as delayed deliveries can impact a patient’s health. Partner with logistics providers experienced in handling medications, particularly those requiring temperature control.

Additionally, establish clear return and refund policies to handle cases of defective or expired products. Transparent policies can enhance customer trust and satisfaction.

7. Invest in Customer Support

Exceptional customer service is crucial in the healthcare sector. Customers may have urgent concerns about their orders or the medications themselves. Providing timely and accurate responses can significantly enhance your reputation.

Offer multiple support channels, such as live chat, email, and phone support. Ensure your team is well-trained to handle sensitive queries responsibly and escalate issues to healthcare professionals when necessary.

Conclusion

Starting a medicine dropshipping business requires more than a basic understanding of e-commerce. It demands a thorough knowledge of regulations, dependable suppliers, and a strong focus on customer service. Make sure you consider the above factors before you launch your medicine dropshipping business.

A Guide To Starting a Natural Therapy Practice

This guide helps students and new practitioners to establish a natural therapy practice. It covers the entirety of the process—from discovering a natural therapy career, to running a successful business.

1. Choose a natural therapy for your career

If you haven’t decided which natural therapy to study, you’ll need to thoroughly research the modalities, and make a decision about which to embark on. Take care to choose a modality that best suits your skills, personality, financial goals, and demand in your local area. If possible, talk to qualified natural therapists who are already working in their field, to find out more information about the day-to-day of the job.

Many natural therapists study multiple modalities, to broaden their scope of practice and offer a greater number of services to customers. If this is the case, you will need to research each of the modalities to make an informed decision.

These are the natural therapy modalities that ANTA accredits:

Acupuncture

Aromatherapy

Ayurvedic Medicine

Chinese Herbal Medicine

Homoeopathy

Myotherapy

Musculoskeletal Therapy

Naturopathy

Nutrition

Oriental Remedial Massage Therapy

Remedial Therapy

Shiatsu

Western Herbal Medicine

2. Enrol in a course, and become an ANTA member

Once you have chosen your career path, enrol in a course that is recognised by ANTA, to ensure that you can become a member.

Once enrolled, sign up for free ANTA membership and gain access to world-class scientific resources, access to our quarterly journal and eNews, reduced future membership fees, and a whole lot more.

3. Complete your qualification, including first aid

If your course doesn’t include first aid as standard, you will need to complete a separate first aid course. This is a requirement of ANTA membership, and necessary for health fund and WorkCover recognition.

4. Select a location for your new business

When you’ve completed your qualifications and finished celebrating, it’s time to set up your new business!

The first step is selecting a location for your practice, and it’s an important one. If you set up your practice in a location where people are likely to use your services, you’ll be on your way to success. You should consider the following when selecting a location for your practice:

Can people living in the area afford your services?

What are the demographics of people living in the area? Do they match your target demographic?

Is there a demand for your services in the area? What is the competition like?

Is the area considered to have good economic growth?

You can contact the local council for this kind of information, or research online.

This is a critical step, so take this slowly.

5. Decide on your business type, and set it up

You can run a natural therapy practice as a company, sole trader, partnership, or a trust. Each option has pros and cons—we recommend talking to an accountant or solicitor about which business type is best for you. They will also be able to help you set up the company.

If you’d rather set up the business by yourself, you can apply for a business name and ABN through the Australian Securities and Investments Commission. To register a business name in your state, you can contact the Office of Fair Trading for your particular state.

6. Apply for your licenses, and understand the regulations

When establishing a new practice it is important to identify which licenses are required, and any regulations you must comply with.

Licenses relating to premises and your practice can vary considerably depending on your approach (building a new business, taking over an existing business, leasing a business, etc.).

To understand which licenses are required, and which regulations you must adhere to, contact your local council.

7. Set up a business bank account

To separate your personal finances from your business finances, you will need to set up a business bank account. To get the best account for your business, spend a little time shopping around.

If you need to apply for a business loan for your new company, this is a good time to look.

8. Get business insurance, and Professional Indemnity Insurance

Business insurance is complicated, and will vary depending on your business. The best approach is to shop around for different types of business insurance, and see what is available.

For your Professional Indemnity Insurance (a requirement for natural therapists), we have developed custom plans for our members through Guild Insurance, which covers Professional Indemnity, Public and Products Liability, and covers you for a minimum of $2 million. This insurance allows you to be registered as a provider with health funds (for applicable modalities) and covers your legal responsibilities for potential injuries and other expenses.

By tailoring this insurance policy for our members, you won’t have to spend hours finding an insurance cover suited for your practice.

9. Understand your legal obligations

GST

Certain natural therapies are exempt from GST, provided they meet the requirements. The eligible modalities are acupuncture, chiropractic, herbal medicine, naturopathy, and osteopathy. You can find out everything you need to know on our GST exemption page.

Privacy

As a natural therapist dealing with people’s personal information, you must adhere to the The Privacy Amendment (Private Sector) Act 2000, and should understand your requirements.

Clinic standards, hygiene, and infection control

Under Federal, State and Local Council regulations, standards must be maintained for your clinic. ANTA Clinic Standards, Hygiene & Infection Control Guidelines.

10. Understand what will make your business successful, and complete key processes

There are many factors within your control that can determine your success:

Deliver high quality professional health services—a large percentage of the public use natural therapists for their primary healthcare, and will continue to consult with their natural therapist provided they obtain quality care.

Build a reputation based on good service and results—one of the best ways to get new customers is by building a solid reputation, and providing an excellent service is the only way to do so. Many of your referrals will come from word of mouth recommendations.

Make your practice visible and accessible to the local market—make your practice visible to your local market with advertisements across a range of mediums.

Join ANTA—there are a huge number of benefits in joining a reputable association such as ANTA, including health fund recognition, free advertising, and access to leading scientific resources to help with your professional development.

Maintain up-to-date client records—maintaining accurate, complete, and up-to-date client records is vital for delivering quality healthcare to your patients.

Maintain up-to-date financial records—maintaining up-to-date financial records is a legal requirement, and vital for monitoring the performance and success of your practice.

Manage your cash flow—cash flow is the life blood of your business. Without sufficient cash flow to run your business your chances of success are diminished. It is important to monitor your income and outgoings and ensure you have sufficient funds to keep your business going.

Consider start up costs, and create a budget—develop a realistic budget for all the costs and expenditure involved in setting up your practice. Under budgeting can lead to problems and stifle your cash flow.

Identify your goals and objectives—set yourself goals and objectives that you want to achieve in the short term (1 year) and the long term (2 to 5 years). Review your goals and objectives regularly to monitor your progress, and to make any changes.

Develop a marketing plan—a marketing plan is critical to your success. Consider all marketing avenues available—Google, social media, through ANTA, local papers, radio, brochures, flyers, signage etc). Take the time to understand your market and how best to target them. Talk to other businesses in the area and ask patients for their opinions. Identify and make contact with other health services or businesses in the area that might compliment your practice. Develop a marketing plan that includes strategies, market segment/profile, advertising programs, costs, target audience, results, and more.

Know your competitors—identify any competitors in the area where you are setting up your practice. How do they market their services? Are they successful? What are their strengths and weaknesses? What health services do they provide, and what rates do they charge?

Develop a financial plan and budget—a financial plan and budget will help you to monitor your income, costs, and expenditure during the year. Establish a realistic budget for the income you expect to earn during the year and identify all the costs and expenditures associated in running your practice. On a regular basis, monitor your actual income and expenditure and compare how you are performing against your budgeted income and expenditure. This will identify any areas where you are under or over budget and help you to make the necessary changes to your business.

Continuing Professional Education (CPE)—ANTA requires members to undertake 20 hours of CPE each year and CPE is also a condition of health fund recognition. CPE is important in keeping abreast of developments, new techniques and treatment available with the profession and your area of training/expertise.

A Comprehensive Guide to Starting an Aloe Vera Farming Business 2024

Introduction :- Aloe vera, with its myriad health and skincare benefits, has gained immense popularity in recent years. Capitalizing on this trend, starting an aloe vera farming business can be a lucrative venture. In this guide, we’ll delve into the steps required to establish and run a successful aloe vera farm.

Conduct Market Research :- Before diving into aloe vera farming, conduct thorough market research to understand the demand for aloe vera products in your target market. Identify potential customers such as cosmetic companies, herbal medicine manufacturers, and retailers. Analyze competitors and assess market trends to refine your business strategy.

Choose the Right Location :- Selecting the right location is crucial for aloe vera farming. Aloe vera thrives in warm, dry climates with well-draining soil.

Consult with local authorities or agricultural extension services to understand the requirements specific to your area.

Acquire Quality Aloe Vera Planting Material :- Source high-quality aloe vera planting material from reputable nurseries or suppliers. Opt for disease-free, mature aloe vera pups or offsets for propagation. Consider the variety of aloe vera best suited for your climate and intended use, whether for medicinal purposes or cosmetic applications.

Prepare the Land and Planting :-  Prepare the land by clearing it of weeds and debris and ensuring proper soil drainage. Aloe vera plants require well-drained soil to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Plant the aloe vera pups at the appropriate spacing, typically 12 to 18 inches apart, and water them lightly after planting.

Implement Proper Irrigation and Maintenance :- Establish an irrigation system tailored to the needs of aloe vera plants. While aloe vera is drought-tolerant, regular watering is essential, especially during the initial growth stages. Monitor soil moisture levels and adjust irrigation frequency accordingly. Additionally, practice weed control and apply organic fertilizers as needed to promote plant growth.

Harvesting and Processing :-  Aloe vera leaves can be harvested once they reach maturity, typically after 2–3 years of growth. Harvest leaves by cutting them close to the base of the plant, taking care not to damage the remaining foliage. After harvesting, process the aloe vera leaves to extract the gel or juice using clean, sanitary methods. Proper processing ensures the preservation of the aloe vera’s beneficial properties.

Marketing and Distribution :- Develop a marketing strategy to promote your aloe vera products to potential buyers. Utilize various channels such as online platforms, trade shows, and direct sales to reach customers. Highlight the quality and purity of your aloe vera products to differentiate them from competitors. Build relationships with distributors, retailers, and wholesalers to expand your market reach.

Conclusion :- Starting an aloe vera farming business requires careful planning, from selecting the right location to marketing your products effectively. By following these steps and staying abreast of market trends, you can establish a successful venture in the booming aloe vera industry. With dedication and persistence, your aloe vera farm can thrive and contribute to the growing demand for natural health and skincare products.

Fic: Forged Through Fire (13/13)

Summary: Amestris. Once democratic, now a military dictatorship. Prohibition is strict; personal freedoms curtailed. All alchemists must be state-licensed or face imprisonment. Foreigners are met with suspicion. It’s a grim place and a grim time, but there are some people able to bring a little light to the world. Behind an innocent-looking bookshop, speakeasy proprietor Chris Mustang has formed an unlikely alliance with unlicensed alchemist Van Hohenheim to provide alcohol to those who want it and medical care to those who need it. When Riza’s newly complete tattoo becomes infected, Roy brings her into this underworld, little knowing the way it will change their lives in the future – uncovering the secrets of the mythical Philosopher’s Stone and the schemes of a Fuhrer hell-bent on achieving immortality, all whilst navigating what they mean to each other.

Forged Through Fire

Epilogue

“Have you noticed that everything seems so much lighter after you leave the city?”

Roy looked out of the window in the same direction as Riza, looking at the sun shining brightly over the green hills as the train sped out of Eastern City along the branch line, stopping at all the small country towns on the way. They’d left Central in the early hours of the morning whilst it was still dark, and it was still a while to go before they reached Resembool. 

Riza yawned, but she couldn’t bring herself to close her eyes and try to sleep, not when the countryside was looking so beautiful. She couldn’t believe that in all her life, she’d never been this far out of the metropolis. It was like a whole other world out here, a place where she could almost imagine that the horrors of the Amestrian regime had never existed.

Things still weren’t good yet. There was a long way to go before the damage from Bradley’s Fuhrership would be rectified, but at least the country was slowly making its way towards a democracy again. General Grumman, drafted in to pick up the pieces in the wake of Bradley’s death, seemed to be a reasonable man, but then again, when one’s definition of ‘reasonable’ was as broad as ‘not completely insane’, the bar was set pretty low. At least Grumman didn’t appear to be obsessed with making himself immortal. Well, not yet, and Roy was close enough to him to hopefully be able to spot the warning signs. 

Still, in the last year and a half since the regime had been unceremoniously decapitated in very dramatic fashion, things had been moving steadily in the right direction. The draconian laws were being repealed little by little. Madam Christmas was no longer operating out of the back of a bookshop and whilst the regulations on alchemy use were still tight, Riza no longer lived in fear of being shot for her tattoo. 

All in all, she had hope for the future now, not just hope for the country but hope for her own future as well, and that was something that so many people had lost over the past couple of decades. 

She glanced over at Roy across the train carriage from her, staring out of the window still and completely oblivious to her looking at him. Their relationship was moving steadily in the right direction as well, and every version of the future that Riza was hoping for included him in some shape or form. 

In a way she was glad that she had not followed him into the military now, as much as she had wanted to at the time. The anti-fraternisation regulations weren’t one of the things that would be going away in a hurry and they would have made things very difficult. She wondered if Roy was thinking the same thing about where their relationship was going; if he too couldn’t imagine a future without her in it. They had spoken about the nebulous future so many times over the last few months, always optimistic and full of fire, always full of grand plans about what would happen next, but for some reason, the next stage of their own lives together had never really come up. 

Presently, Roy caught her eye looking at him, and he smiled.

“What are you thinking about?”

“You.”

He laughed. “Fair enough.”

“What were you thinking about?”

“I was wondering how difficult it’ll be to find Hohenheim and Trisha once we get there. She said it’s a small community that protects their own; I’m a little concerned that we’ll be run out of town if we say we’re looking for them.” He paused. “And I was thinking about you, too.”

The rest of the journey continued in silence, the same easy silence that they had always shared since they had first met in the Hawkeye house all those years ago, and eventually Riza drifted off into a doze as the early start caught up with her, only waking to Roy’s gentle shake of her shoulder and soft kiss on her cheek. 

“Come on, we’re here.”

Resembool was a small town, and at first glance it appeared that sheep outnumbered people six to one, but Roy’s fears of being hounded back onto the first outbound train were quelled when the locals seemed happy enough to direct them towards Trisha. She and Hohenheim had made their home on the very outskirts of the town, a small white house on the top of a hill overlooking the rest of Resembool. 

“I’m beginning to see why people were happy to let us have directions,” Roy said as they made their way up the hill, which was deceptively steep. “I think anyone wanting to kidnap Hohenheim again would definitely think twice if they had to tackle this hill.” 

Riza just laughed, but by the time they reached the hand-painted wooden sign reading Elric Herbal Dispensary at the gate, she too needed to get her breath back. From this angle she could see the massive glasshouse that took up most of the yard space, and she spied Trisha coming out carrying armfuls of herbs.

“Well, this is an unexpected surprise.” She put down the plants and came over to open the gate for them; Riza could smell the aloe vera and tea tree on her. “Come on in; you’ll need something to fortify you after the walk up the hill.” 

They followed her up the path as she ran on ahead, leaning in through the open window. “We’ve got visitors!”

A minute or so later, the front door opened, revealing Hohenheim with a toddler who could only be described as a mini-Hohenheim on his hip. The child had his golden eyes and hair, and as he regarded Riza and Roy with the scrutiny only a nearly-one-year-old could give, Riza could definitely see the beginnings of the death glare as well. 

Hohenheim smiled. “Hello Roy, Riza. This is an unexpected surprise.”

“It’s good to see you. This must be Edward.” Roy braved the boy’s scrutiny, solemnly holding out a hand to him. Edward just continued to stare dubiously, as if he’d been offered a poisonous snake.

“Yes.” Trisha came over and tickled her son, immediately breaking the tension as he burst into giggles. “And you two might as well be the first to know that his brother or sister is on the way as well.” She patted her stomach, still flat to the unedified observer. “Come on in. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen anyone from the city; you’ll have to give us all the news.”

They entered the house and Trisha set about making tea, Edward returning to the far more important task of building block towers. 

“So, it seems you’ve been busy since you’ve been here,” Roy began. Hohenheim and Trisha looked at each other and then down at Trisha’s belly, and Roy gave a squawk of alarm. 

“That’s not what I meant! I was talking about the greenhouse!” He looked across at Riza for help, and she shook her head. 

“You got yourself into that hole, you can get yourself out.”

Trisha laughed and took pity on him. “Yes, it was quite easy to get set up in the end. My family was always in the traditional medicine line before I went to the city, so the Elric name is trusted in these parts. It’s been good to get back into it with more space than a broom closet. As for Van, everyone knows he’s an alchemist and he gets requests for help with fixing things sometimes, but since our closest neighbours are proper doctors and we don’t get all that many stabbings and less than legal activities in Resembool, he’s been enjoying being a house-husband. I never knew he could bake.”

“According to your summation of the carrot cake yesterday, I still can’t,” Hohenheim said. 

“Well, some of your attempts come out better than others. I think it’s the fact you try to apply science to it all.”

Riza watched the interplay between the two of them fondly. It was good to see them happy and safe after everything that had happened, and the amount of adversity that they had overcome and still been able to settle down into a normal family life gave her fresh hope for her and Roy. Riza would be the first to admit that her life thus far had not been at all normal in any sense of the word, but she knew that she had the chance to find that normality. 

The talk soon turned to their friends in Central and how everyone was getting on. Fuery and Breda were still working tirelessly with Roy. Falman had been sent on secondment to Briggs fortress for six months and had come home with a Drachman fiancée as well as the vodka shipment. Hughes wouldn’t stop talking about new-born Elysia for more than five minutes straight, during which he was talking about Gracia instead. Havoc and Rebecca seemed to be going strong, and Madam Christmas’s business was flourishing even more now that it was out in the open. 

Eventually, Roy started to talk about alchemy and the new licensing plans with Hohenheim, and Riza found herself following Trisha back out to the greenhouse to retrieve the dropped plants from earlier. They were gathering up bundles of tea tree together when Trisha asked the question.

“What’s eating you, Riza? You’ve been very quiet all afternoon.”

Riza sighed. “I don’t know. I guess… How did you know that Hohenheim was the one? How did you know that he was your future and you wanted to spend the rest of your life with him?”

“Hmm.” Trisha sat down on the little bench outside the greenhouse, sorting the bundles in her lap, and Riza perched next to her. “I think, in a way, it was more that he knew. Van’s lived a long time and he’s met so many people, but he’s always said that I was the first person he ever wanted to share his story with. It wasn’t just a question of trusting me with the knowledge, although that was a large part of it. It was more wanting me to know the truth and wanting to open up. For me…” Her hand came to her stomach again. “I’ve always wanted to be a mother, and he was the one I could see myself raising children with.”

“It doesn’t bother you, the fact he’s going to outlive you and the children?”

“No. I’ve made peace with it. I know he’s still going to love me when I’m eighty. Van’s not quite as accepting; he’s looking for a way to reverse what happened to him so that he can start aging again and die a natural death, but for now we’re just enjoying the time that we have. Life is short – for most of us, at least – so we need to make the most of it.”

It was such a simple truth, and yet it hit close to home for Riza. So much of her life had been spent in the shadows. Yes, part of that had been by design whilst she had been living at the bookshop and helping the others who spent their lives in the shadows, but even then, she had been on the edges of that life looking in. She had gone from being shut up in her own home to shutting herself up in a new home, and it was only during the last couple of years, helping Amestris get back on its feet in the best way she could, that she had really stepped out into the light. It was time to make the most of the life she now had, and in Riza’s mind, that included sharing it with Roy. 

Roy stuck his head out of the kitchen window. Speak of the devil.

“Hohenheim’s making dinner,” he said. “I’ve been tasked with keeping Edward away from the stove, but I really don’t think he likes me.”

Riza rolled her eyes as Trisha burst out laughing. 

“Oh Roy. What are we going to do with you?”

They made their way back inside to the kitchen, where Roy and Edward appeared to be engaged in a staring contest. Hohenheim was obviously trying very hard not to laugh and failing miserably. 

“Roy, he’s strapped into his high-chair, he’s not likely to make a run for it,” Trisha pointed out. 

“I know, but children are tricky things. I keep thinking that if I turn my back for a moment I’ll find him swinging from the lampshade or something.”

Trisha sighed. “You’re a brilliant alchemist and an excellent military tactician but you’re absolutely hopeless with children, you know that?”

“We can’t all be good at everything.”

Riza continued to watch the interplay between Roy and Edward for a while. She was not particularly maternal, not in the way that Trisha had always wanted to have kids, and there was a small part of her that was afraid of repeating the same mistakes that her father had made and perpetuating the cycle. All the same, when she thought of a nebulous future that included children, it was Roy that she could see in the picture; still just as hopeless as he was now but with more than enough love to make up for it. 

Trisha caught her eye and gave a knowing smile, and Riza looked away, embarrassed at the train her thoughts were taking. Still, the notion of that permanent future wouldn’t leave her mind. Not the children yet, but the future that was inextricably linked with Roy.

It was a shame when the evening came to a close and they had to leave Trisha and Hohenheim to go back to the little inn by the railway station that they’d booked into for the night. It had been so good to see them thriving out here, with Hohenheim finally finding some form of peace. They left them with the promise to come back and meet the new baby when he or she arrived next year and the knowledge that they were always welcome at any time, and they made their way back down the hill as the sun began to go down. 

“I’m so glad they’re ok, you have no idea. I know that Trisha would have found some way to let us know if anything had happened, but it’s been praying on my mind. I feel a little guilty that we didn’t come to check in on them sooner.”

Riza reached out and found Roy’s hand in the dim dusk light. “I think that might have done more harm than good. They needed the time to get themselves settled and to disappear into the community. And we know that they’re all right now. Honestly, I don’t think that there’s ever been a couple more determined to stick together through thick and thin.”

“I don’t know.” Roy squeezed her hand. “I think we do pretty well on that score.”

“Yeah.” Riza paused, trying to work out the best way of wording what she was about to say and deciding to just go ahead and say it. “Roy, I’ve been thinking. About the future.”

“Yes?”

“I can’t imagine a future without you in it. Well, I can, but I don’t want to. And I was thinking about making that future permanent.”

“Getting married and starting a family, you mean?”

“Yes. Not necessarily the starting a family part. I’ve not gone broody from meeting Edward. But the getting married and being a family of two part. In the future, of course, once everything’s more stable…” She trailed off her rapid justifications as Roy stopped in his tracks. 

“Why wait till the future?” he asked. 

“What?”

“Why wait till the future and everything being more stable? That might take a very long time; Bradley did a lot of damage in a short space of time and it’s going to take a while to unpick. It might be years before things are better again. I don’t want to wait that long.”

“You don’t mean right now?”

“No, of course not. We’ll need some time to plan it. Although we are absolutely under no circumstances allowing Hughes to get involved in planning, you saw what he was like when he and Gracia were getting married.”

“He might be less exuberant if it’s not his own wedding.”

“Don’t bet on it. But I don’t see why we should wait to make it official when it’s what we both want.”

“Are you sure it’s what we both want?”

Roy took her other hand, and Riza could see the earnestness in his face. “I don’t think I’ve ever been more sure about anything. Right now, with all this upheaval going on around us, it’s probably the only thing that I’m sure about. I can get down on one knee and do it properly if you want.”

“No, no, it’s ok… Roy, get back up, you silly man!” She tried to pull him back up onto his feet.

“I’m down now, I might as well do it. Riza Hawkeye, will you marry me? Soon? At a definitive point within the next few months, not a vague date in the future?”

“Yes! Yes, of course I will, now get up before someone sees us!”

“There’s no one around for miles except Trisha and Hohenheim and they’d probably be cheering us on.” 

Nevertheless, he got to his feet again, brushing the dust off his trousers before pulling Riza in for a kiss. 

It was one of those moments that she never wanted to end, and by the time they broke away, the sun was well and truly setting, the lights of the town below starting to twinkle in the darkness as they continued to make their way down hand in hand. 

As much as she wanted to think about the future rather than the past, Riza couldn’t help looking back. A few years ago, she had accepted that her life would be a completely solitary one, never to be shared with anyone. 

She was so glad that she had turned out to be wrong in that respect, and that the future she had never thought possible was materialising itself right in front of her, that it was literally here in her hands. 

She glanced at Roy, returning his smile and squeezing his hand. It was time to let go of the shadows of the past that had haunted her for so long. 

It was time to live in true freedom at last.

Where to Buy Flea Medication

https://www.centralparkpaws.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/519ikQESumL.jpg

This past weekend my husband and I were out walking the pups when we saw a kitten sitting behind a nursing home.

I walked down to see if it had tags so that I could get it back home, but there were no tags.

Long story short, the kitten was born near the nursing home and had no family.

Of course, I went back and scooped her up.

I brought her to the vet. She checked out okay, so I set out on a mission to find a home for the kitten.

Within hours, good friends of ours contacted me and said they would love to give her a home.

Buying Flea Medication Online

I was telling my friend that I had brought her into the vet where they gave me a free dose of Frontline to take care of any fleas.

I then asked if she wanted me to go back and grab more for her, but she declined, saying they always got their flea preventatives online because it is both cheaper and more convenient than running to the vet.

I had some questions about her online experiences since I traditionally picked up all of my pets’ medicine from our vet.

With three dogs and cat, any chance of saving money is always welcome!

I did some research on several online stores to see where I could get the best deals and to read what other customers were saying about their experience.

Here’s what I found.

What to Look for in Online Pharmacies

It is not that I didn’t know about vet meds being available online. I didn’t order online because I didn’t trust the stores.

Being an active member of the pet community and regularly reading a variety of pet articles, I have come upon more than a few reports pointing out the dangers of ordering online.

Of course, this was years ago when it first started becoming more popular.

Over time, things have changed in the regulations and safety of getting meds online.

After completing my research, I have found multiple reputable online pharmacies.

Here’s a list of things I was looking for regarding the purchase of medication from various websites.

I will note that not all of the following restrictions are applicable for flea preventatives (Some may focus on human, not pet, pharmacies).

Vet-VIPPS (Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Sites) accredited[1]

Check legitscript.com to see if they are a registered pharmacy[2]

Check to see if they are Safe Pharmacy[3] approved

Make sure they are a US-based pharmacy; different countries have different regulations on medications

Check the Better Business Bureau to see if they are in good standing

Make sure a prescription is required for prescription drugs

The reason to take caution when buying online is that online pharmacies that are not accredited have been known to provide wrong, ineffective, or out-of-date medications, all of which can put your dog at risk for medical complications.

Like I said, I have always gotten my flea medication from my vet.

They even offer an online store through Midwest Veterinary Supply, making things easy to order.

Their online ordering link directs you to three different websites:

Two are for farm animals and the third is for domestic pets.

The major downside to ordering through this site is that it’s isn’t as easy and straightforward as many of the other sites listed here. 

You’ll probably have to get a prescription from your vet before you can order here, as well, which kinds of negates the convenience of ordering online.

I don’t think that there’s a person on this planet who isn’t familiar with Amazon!

The lack of licensing doesn’t mean that Amazon isn’t a reputable online store, but it does mean that the regulations regarding medications aren’t as strict as other options.

Regarding Chewy and medication, I am happy to report they are associated with a licensed pharmacy.

After comparing pricing with other online companies and my vet, I can confidently state they have the best pricing available on most medicine, especially on Bayer’s Seresto collar.

Recommendations

The first thing I will say after completing my research is that I am absolutely blown away by the large variety of flea medications on the market.

“Wan” is Japanese for “woof,” so is this collar only effective against Japanese fleas?

I was familiar with several of the brands, but to be honest, the majority of the brands were new to me.

My first recommendation when shopping online for flea medications, whether it is over the counter or prescription, is to be sure that you find a reputable online store.

In my research, I was disturbed by the comments I found regarding those who exercised less caution, and their pups paid the price.

Overall, I think Chewy.com offers the most competitive pricing for pet medications, especially with auto-ship.

However, as you can see above, I did note three common flea medications and who had the best pricing for each.

The drawback of ordering medicine online is that there are two delays.

The first delay would be for the prescription to be verified, and the second would be for the shipping.

Neither delays would be something you would deal with when picking up flea medication from your vet. 

Conclusion

Having three dogs is expensive, and I am all for saving money, but not at the expense of my dogs’ health.

However, after researching online shopping, I found that I could save over $100 a year on flea preventative and almost $900 a year on all other medications by buying their medication online!

My final thought is that it is well worth the time to shop around for flea medications.

Big Hero 7: The Series

Big Hero 7 Season 2

The calm before the storm

*Nimble hands set up a camera to record a video, to which it finally shows Cora Mizichio in her living room. She lets out a deep breath before she smiles up at the camera.*

Cora: Hi! It's me again! Wow,a lot of things has happened since I started this video diary, and let me tell you: It was a very insane, yet stupidly awesome ride.

*She pulls out her phone and soon starts a montage of video clips she recorded showing herself and her boyfriend and friends as both themselves and super heroes.*

Cora: Turns out Baymax saved his chip in a rocket first to which Hiro and I decided to rebuild Baymax, but when one glitch caused his body to run around like a lunatic. Didn't help that Yama held Baymax's skeleton and yours truly as hostages for Hiro to do his dirty work on stealing something from Professor Grandville's desk, *Mutters under breathe* more on her later*clear voice*. Because of that it lead to Gogo, Fred, Honey Lemon, and Wasabi to help Hiro rescue us and make it home safely. But when Yama released an army of Boot legged Baymaxes to steal the thing; that was the night we all realized we can be way more. So we put on our suits and stopped the army, stopped Yama, and destroyed the thing. Since that night we became Big Hero 7!

*Cora smiles brightly to herself as she shows the official picture of themselves as super heroes that show their super hero names: Electro-Magnetic Alpha(Hiro), Aqua Girl(Cora), Omega Danger(Baymax), Chemistry Princess(Honey Lemon), Velocity(Gogo), Fredzilla(Fred Frederickson IV) and Blades Master(Wasabi). Then the clips start showing people they met along the way*

Cora: We've met a lot of new people since then, both as supers and students. There's Professor Grandville; a strict but fair dean who is more than what she seemed, Professor Seto my Bio teacher, Mole the pest that bothers Fred and Gogo and deserves a good butt-kicking, *Shows clip of Karmi*… Someone who also deserves a good butt kicking for her behavior to Hiro and I. Esmeralda the fashion major student from SFAI and the woman partially responsible for me going to bot fighting, Commander Carter who got us our super hero licenses along with Mr. Frederickson; both who help young supers get their license to protect them and assist them in whatever mission they are in. Tela-Patty the telepathic girl, Laser blast who uses, you guessed it, laser beams, Sparrow the archer who can hit any target. Finally there's Ice Frost, she can freeze anything and survive subzero temperatures, and who we learned is Miyuki Frost, an animation major student at SFAI. And as any hero can face, there's our Rouge Gsllery: High Voltage, the Mother-Daughter electric dancing crime duo. Globby, a man transformed into a -Globby- mess after a poor choice to steal Honey's chem purse was made. Momakase, a skilled thief and sushi chef who...turned out to be connected to my Papa, and Noodle Burger Boy was an innocent bot before he was hacked and reprogrammed by one man.

*Cora paused as she thinks over what to say next, her smile fading away as she thought about him, along with the memories came a whirlwind of emotions that clash against each other. Finally she looks up and speaks again with a determined brow on her face.*

Cora: A man named Obake, a very intelligent...and very dangerous, mentally stable man whose circumstances turned him into one of our most dangerous villains we ever faced … his birth name was Bob Aken, an orphan... but he was adopted into a Yakuza Clan where he gained a father, a mother...and a brother. He was renamed Kage Mizichio...and his brother... is my father, Mizuchi Mizichio. The heir of the Mizichio Yakuza Clan. The Demonic Titan. *Rubbing her arms as she swallows tightly* Their story was at first innocent and happy... but when their father, Isamu...my grandfather died; Nozako, their mother...*Gulps* My grandmother...took over and immediately darkened their world. They had a strong bond like Hiro and Tadashi, but Nozako's plans for my father and abuse to Kage forced them apart. In the end they both escaped... Kage twice since... he wasn't very successful the first time.

*Cora pulls out two photos, one showing a young Kage with a younger Professor Grandville, and the second photo showing him with a girl that bears a striking resemblance to Cora; save for the freckles, green eyes, and long strawberry blonde hair.*

Cora: With the help of my Papa he managed to get secret classes at SFIT where Professor Grandville protected him and encouraged him to grow. And there's Chara Bonete… she was just a highschool student who met Kage and they... fell in love. But when Kage tried to build an energy amplifier without anyone knowing it exploded. He survived because... Nozako's workers found him as doctors. She punished him by dropping him out of school...and taking away Chara's life. That was when Kage's bond with my papa snapped. Papa's escape was by accident. He was sent on a mission by Kage to retrieve a very powerful medicine that could cure all diseases and heal all wounds. He was supposed to also kill the herbal medicine maker and her daughter to hide any evidence... instead.. he fell in love with her, the daughter of the herbal medicine doctor...my mama. With patience, determination, and love. Papa regained his hope and faith and his connection with Mama grew deeper. But he knew that anytime Nozako could return and harm them, or worse, turn them into her own puppets like she did with him. So he faked his death. After Mama saved him with the very same medicine that he was supposed to steal, he ran away with Mama and Grandmama to San Fransokyo where they hidden themselves and the potion away from the world and from Nozako's reach...even me. But because of Papa's 'Death'... that lead to Nozako blaming Kage for his mission. He was kicked out of the only home he ever had, and since he didn't know Papa was alive he couldn't call for help. All those years of abuse, hate, and mistreatment turned him into a monster... a monster bent on Destroying San Fransokyo to rebuild it to his image, reclaim back his home from Nozako… and mistaking me for Chara. Thankfully Hiro and the gang saved me and stopped him from succeeding his plan. And by some miracle...Papa saved him. He convinced Commander Carter to get Kage help to not only receive treatment for his mental health, but to also get the surgery for his brain damage. A shard from the energy amplifier he built long ago struck his head...and Nozako left it in there to make him suffer. And now...

*Cora pulls out a letter her family received the other day and shows the contents of it.*

Cora: This letter says that Kage had shown significant recovery in both his surgery and his counseling that he's cleared to go home.. and by home I mean here. And the day he's gonna join us is also the day the new semester of SFIT starts. That alone is a shock cause... Hiro and I had been in SFIT for a semester. We've made it this far into our lives and relationship... But that leaves us with something.. what happens now? Kage can't be left alone, and he has to do something. Papa mentioned that he would talk to Grandville when he comes along. Thankfully the first Baymax is gonna join us and help Kage. *Whispers into Camera* That's another story for another time. *Clear voice* We got our answers to this questions we'd thought we would never ask and got closure. But a part of me feels that there's more that my family isn't telling me; I know why Papa had been overprotective of me before but...Grandmama never really told me why they lived in Muirahara woods for so long, or even how Grandmama made such a powerful medicine in the first place. And there's been someone at SFIT that's been seeing 'you know who' a lot...and she gives me a bad feeling inside me... but if we survived Obake and all these crazy things, I'm sure we can deal with whatever happens to us in the future. We're in this together through hell and back.

*Cora smiles brightly as she saves the video and shuts it off to prepare for bed. As she prepares her futon after texting Hiro goodnight with a heart emoji, the moon shines brightly above the bay of San Fransokyo. The waves crashing to the shore along with the pale glow of the moon gives off an aura of great beauty...and great danger. and it shines through not only Cora's window, but to Hiro's as well, then to the rest of the gang, to Mizuchi, to Kaguya...and finally ending it with Kage Mizichio. All of them unaware of their future ahead.*

A.N: Here is a new chapter from me as we near to the premier of Season 2~! The first Baymax is a reference to the KH3 crossover and so he will be joining too! There's also gonna appearances of Kage/Obake and perhaps even... Nozako and the sirens( Which will appear in the future as I post the chapters here). Also, my Editor will update the chapters so the wordings will be different a bit, so till then, enjoy this! Also, Finals is coming for me so I'm gonna be a little busy, so please be patient for me. As for the Hiro HamadaXCora Mizichio ship...

I AM THE CAPTAIN OF THIS SHIP AND I WILL SAIL HER INTO WHATEVER WATERS I PLEASE!

P.s: Please don't share your spoilers into the reviews.

Thank you all for following BH7! Love you all!
