Animal House!! gotta love Bluto!!
x
One time I went to my local animal shelter
and was thinking about getting a second dog. I already have a German Shepherd, and thought that she may like a playmate. My husband and I saw the cutest golden retriever/yellow lab mix puppy, and they wouldn't even let us in the kennel to see the dog without filling out a bunch of paperwork. We told them that we probably weren't even going to adopt that day, but we still would have had to fill out all of the paperwork just to go in and meet the dog. I think it's great that they care so much about making sure these animals go to good homes, but sometimes they make the process almost impossible, making less people want to go through the process and actually adopt. I think that personal references and even meeting with you in your home are great, but a home inspection? That's a bit extreme. It's not like you adopting a human child here.
Time to report the owner to Animal Control if you have a

All time favorite movie?
My absolute favorite, which I can watch over and over, is Grease.  Dirty Dancing (the original) plays a close second though. 
When's the best time to buy a house?
I'm new in CA and we're just renting a room for a year now.  We found a house that's brand new, price range is $400-500k with all the upgrades in there.  Furniture, appliances are inclusive.  My wife's earning around 4k monthly and I'm earning around 2k monthly.  I'm working in a hospital as a Transcriptionist and I'm not yet regular there.  We really love the house and it's perfect for us since my wife and I are having a baby soon.  My question is, is it time to buy the house?  Need advice on this.  Thanks in advance! 
best time to buy a house
Or, if you could, move to South Texas.  $200K will purchase a lot of house.....RNs & physical therapists can work anywhere........unless you need to be near family.  Cost of living in Texas is much less than East/West Coasts or Pacific NW......Course, you would need flood insurance but that is no big deal & its cheap at only $240.00 to 260.00 per year.  Lots of the southern states have cheaper cost of living & you would be amazed at the housing market here......Just for comparison go to big builder websites (Perry Homes, Trendmaker, others) & check out the square footage & costs.  Outlying Houston has lots of land, good schools, good work opportunities........Would need a vehicle though.  Good luck with the new baby.
Then there's the time on House - sm
when he said she had an intercranial bleed. Funny, she didn't look like she had two heads!
No, it was his first time at our house.
No, it was his first time at our house.
If you are going to be in the house such a short time sm
You will build up almost NO equity with a 40-year mortgage, and may have to sell it at a loss. Something to consider....
cereal is an all time fav here in my house..
but dh grilled pork chops and hot dogs, so I didn't have to cook.. Thank God~
Time to move out of your grandma's house nm

next time you go to her house, steal your stuff back!!
may you should start marking your stuff w/those markers. Every time I take anything anywhere anymore I am going to mark my stuff.
My favorite time of night is when kids and hubby are asleep and the house is quiet...

Usmoms need some quiet time too...don't feel bad for feeling that way...I am sure we have all imagined what it would be like not having kids or a husband...but then that thought goes away and someone yells "Mommy" or "Honey"...LOL...


Critics hate the movie, but love her. Movie way too contrived, but so

ESL docs have got to be the funniest!
I have one who always says "patient lives alone at home by himself." Another one seems beyond being able to use correct medical terminology for bodily functions. All his patients "poop" and "pee." The kids also have "snotty noses."
Funniest thing this week
Transcribing a report on an adult and in the past medical history doc states"the patient had SIDS as a child".  Thought perhaps this doc was a ghost whisperer!
HA! - funniest thing I heard all day! Thanx
ha!
I just found the FUNNIEST website! -(sm)-

It's called "Awkwardfamilyphotos.com".    Check out the Mullet-family and the Pooh-family.... I still can't hardly type, I'm laughing so hard!


 


 


What was the funniest thing you typed over the last few days?
I had a doctor on Friday night who gave a whole list of his plans for his elderly patient and then at the end said,  Rib fractures will be repeated.  Owie!!! 
OMG - that's the funniest thing I've ever read!

Y'all must not watch Funniest Home Videos as often as I do
... if you think hanging a pinata, blindfolding a child and handing him a stick is a good party idea, LOL.

Swing away!
Don't want you to feel bad!! You're our funniest "co-worker" LOL (sm)
How long have you been transcribing? I seem to know a lot of transcriptionists, including myself, who have had these types of symptoms. Doctor told me the same thing once - wonder if it is from lack of movement or constant computer exposure?
Oh you're kidding! Blazing Saddles is one of the funniest movies
And no, I'm not a guy.
Anybody see the movie Sicko yet? Important movie!

Need help with ideas for remodeling house and decorating. We bought a house

in fair condition about 10 years ago, got into some medical problems, and have just now paid off the mortgage.  Hubby and I agreed we would do nothing to the house for remodeling because we wanted to pay it off first, then the medical bills.  I need to know of some websites/magazines/books to start researching for how to go about this.  These will be major repairs - roof, septic, basement, windows, pretty much everything except wiring.  Where do we start?  Maybe hire a general contractor just to do an evaluation and give us recommendations?  Hubby is a handyman but cant seem to get a handle on where to begin.  We would like to do as much of the work ourselves as possible - labor of love and all that...   


Thanks for any and all kind suggestions!


 


I don't doubt that there are
people like your first husband who simply choose to live that way, but the majority do not choose it and do not enjoy it. It is a miserable feeling.

I do give money to people that I think are truly down and out- but I just try to differentiate between them and the professional panhandlers. I see guys out in the medians of roads or on freeway ramps with signs and some of these guys are dressed better than me. Those people I suspect are scamming and I do not give money then. But I don't want to withhold help from someone who really does need it because I have been there and it was the loneliest most miserable thing I have ever been through.
That's possible, but I really doubt it

The woman she is dealing with is irrational and has serious issues. Confronting her could lead to a big emotional blowup that would leave the OP feeling even worse.


When you are talking about rational people who are able to deal with their problems calmly and with some degree of objectivity, then discussing problems is an excellent idea.


But believe me - I have been there when it comes to dealing with people who refuse to face their own problems. I definitely came out of that situation feeling much worse than when I went in, even though I remained calm, softspoken, and rational during the entire conversation.


I think the OP should use her own judgment in deciding whether it is worth it to confront the woman over this. Sometimes it's better just to close the door, literally and metaphorically, rather than try to get "closure" through confrontation.


JMHO


No doubt! LOL NM

I have no doubt
That if this was the only thing I had going on right now I could make over 400 a week too. And I mentioned in passing the patient who came in on a Sunday as a joke, like we MTs often do. I have plenty of patience, I promise.

I never blamed the professions fault, but yes, the profession is partly to blame. Offshoring, ever decreasing cpls, and unethical MTSOs greatly contribute to the declining pay scale of the medical transcription profession. That is one of the reasons I am getting out of it. But the main reason is because I originally began school to become a psychologist, and I want to finish that.

As for the patient with the rash that came in on Sunday, guess what? They were told to go see their primary care physician on Monday.
I seriously doubt you know anything about
Don't poop where you eat small town girl!
When it doubt, toss it out (sm)
We will give him credit. At least he was honest and said he wanted to be sure and is still accepting matches. To me? I would feel like a doormat. Hey, if I'm not good enough for you and you're still out there fishing, then do it without me. That's not saying someone has to be exclusive in their dating, but in this day and age, there are too many love diseases to be spread, I wouldn't want to be a part of that.

It sounds like you're good enough for now, but if something better comes along, he'll be dropping you like a hot potato. I'd be moving on.

Pilates- without a doubt
I have heard that you see the difference within the first couple of weeks, and it tones you all over.


He is an indoor dog. I doubt very seriously
But thank you for your suggestion.
I highly doubt it
I have no clue how that is even possible. I really don't think that you can. You might want to ask Verizon, though.
They will take you to court, without doubt.
It isn't too little for them. If they have evidence you owe that debt, then they have legal recourse to collect.

If it goes to court, you will get a judgement against you. It will go on your credit record and they can also garnish wages to receive their money. They may be entitled to other collection means.

It won't matter whether you send a cease and desist letter -- it is a debt you legally owe. You need to call them immediately and discuss your concerns over the legitimacy of the claim. Never, ever avoid them - it will just cost you more in the long run.


I would give it all to him. No doubt about it. nm

I doubt that anything has happened (yet)
The fact that she wrote the nice thank-you note shows that she assumed that you also knew about the gift. There is a good chance that your husband was just trying to be nice and generous to a girl down on her luck, but the fact that he hid it from you shows that he knew you wouldn't approve.

While there probably is nothing between them, the feelings he has for her are dangerous and could easily lead to something happening between them. I think you're right to ask him to end their relationship now, even though at the moment it is only platonic. He will probably think you're ridiculous, but I would strongly suggest it to him and, if he insists he doesn't want that, then the other alternative would be that you make your appointments together.

I doubt homeowners would cover this, but
to do?  How would the carpet store fix this?  Just wondering....
I have no doubt that some drugs are worthwhile

but don't you ever type a list of meds a mile long and wonder how the poor patient (especially someone elderly) is still standing upright?  Sometimes that makes me absolutely crazy.  I think there is absolute validity in natural cures and I think the medical community or government or whomever is too quick to push yet another drug - or in this case, a vaccine - on the population without knowing exactly what the side effects will be.


I strained my lower back 3 weeks ago.  My mother immediately assumed I was going to need surgery, friends insisted I needed drugs.  I went to my chirpractor.  It took several visits, but I am now pain free.  Totally, 100% natural.  (I didn't add this to start another whole debate, but just to make my point that there are alternatives.)


Have a great day!!

it's' chicken, when in doubt, throw it out!!!

Toss it........chicken needs to be refrigerated after cooking and leaving it all night in the oven is not a good thing, I have done it myself and thrown the chicken out.


When in doubt, throw it out! 


Doubt OP has 24/7 wattch dog. He knows furniture

I highly doubt you'll get someone to do all of that for
Housekeepers actually make more like 60-75 dollars a visit.  You may get someone who is just looking for some pin money to do what you're asking, but I'm sure they'll want more than 15 dollars. 
Doubt diff. vet will recommend anything without

No doubt you're confused! I don't know what's

going on myself, so it's a bit difficult to describe it in any clear way.


I know very little about diabetes, but my vision is definitely deteriorating.  I had wondered why the nurse specifically asked me if I was a diabetic.  I also know that I have a great chance of developing diabetes once my pancreas is completely destroyed.  All I know is the last set of labs I had were very good.  I see my doctor again on July 22, and I will definitely mention this to him.


I took Wellbutrin almost 10 years ago to try to help quit smoking.  It gave me tremors of the hands so badly that I couldn't type.  So I stopped taking it.  I'm on a mess of medicines (most of them, gratefully, provided by the manufacturers' patient assistance programs.)  A couple months ago, I started Abilify, didn't seem to have any problems.


As far as the problem with staggering, mine came out of the blue, as well.  I was somehow thinking they might be related, but after your comment about diabetes, I'm going to do more research on diabetes because it's a disease that I know absolutely nothing about.


Thanks so much for your post and your input.  I'm feeling like "Columbo" trying to figure out a mystery, and I appreciate any input I can get. 


Hope you have a great weekend. 


I doubt your children are happy with that treatment.
At least we hope so.

When in doubt VISA gift cards
They spend like cash. You can even spend them online.
True, but I doubt Britney is that deep! - nm

I doubt this explanation....roux is french

Roux in French means to cook equal amounts of butter/flour together to make/thicken sauces.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roux


However, medically speaking here's a descript. of what name means/comes from:


The name (Roux-en-Y) comes from the restructuring of the small intestine to form a Y-shaped structure. One arm of the Y carries digestive juices and the other carries food. The two arms come together farther down the intestine where digested food can be absorbed.
