Tomato soup and toasted cheese sandwich.
Nothing grilled, it gives me a bellyache,  just plain toast and cheese stuck together   My son will have his favorite, fried liver and onions, my daughter will have cinnamon oatmeal, husband will have half a grapefruit, oatmeal, 2 eggs, and toast.  I run a short order house in the morning, but at least everyone eats something good for them before they leave the house, so I don't mind at all.   And I won't be surprised if a few neighborhood kids stop in for my soup and sandwich or the oatmeal.  The only rule is that they have to put their own dishes in the dishwasher, not leave them for me to clean up. 
Reminds me of a friend who worked
for an attorney. He used to fire her regularly cuz he had a nasty temper. One day he goes of the office and she wasn't there. He called her at home and yelled at her because she wasn't at work and couldn't understand why she did what she was told to do.
Yep, reminds me of a friend of mine
who lost her job as a travel agent (due to technology, Expedia, Cheap Tickets, etc.) and refuses to work for less than $35,000 a year. Says it's "beneath her."

Well she has no other skills, and is uneducated except for a 6-month travel course at a community college, so how could anyone expect to call the salary shots in that situation?

I agree. You gotta do what you gotta do. Sometimes life hits you hard, but it's up to you to accept it or start over with an education.

If you choose not to "accept" a job that pays less, even temporarily, that's your problem, not the government's.
Forget all that mushroom soup stuff. Add carrots, celery, dry onion soup mix, a touch of tomato past
Add flour to mixture when roast is finished for gravy. Home made mashed potatoes and green beans with almonds and a salad. Yum.
Left over from wienie roast cheesy potato soup, french onion soup and squished sandwiches.

dinner tonight? I'm having fried chicken and macaroni & cheese. I'll make sure it's a whi
I have my cholesterol checked! 
I'll trade your friend for my cousin

He charges outlandish amounts to do our taxes. Last year it was over $550. The year before that was a little less 'cause we had a mortgage. We don't have that this year.


'Course he said he tried to squeeze every last penny of deductions he could out of our taxes. He even filed an amended return after talking to DH about taxes at our last reunion. Saved us a few more thousand dollars....but still hurt. I am an employee, gave up IC 4 years ago, but DH is still self-employed.


How about your husband tells the friend to tell his female friend to lose the #?

soup
First of all, had 2 huge chickens for din din last night... So I cut away all left over chicken.  Huge pot of water and add salt and pepper and chop an onion.  Let simmer for at least 45 minutes.  Homemade noodles are a tad difficult to explain but "Reames", which I use in a pinch, has excellent home made noodles in the frozen food section of most grocery stores.  Boil on the side until somewhat firm as you have to add for the last 45 minutes to soup.  I add 3/4 teaspoon of chicken soup base to the huge pot and let simmer another 35 minutes.  Add fresh or frozen carrots, peas, potatoes etc.(whatever your family wishes) and after noodles done toss in the huge pot and simmer for another 35 - 40 minutes.  Totally awesome and never any leftovers here.  Hope it works.

homemade soup
I keep the best leftovers in the deep freeze to make soup.  Tonight's soup  has veggies, including lima beans, a wonderful chicken stock, and some diced up london broil and potatoes cut very fine to thicken the soup.  All these leftovers in the soup bring back memories of meals gone by!    I just throw it all in the crockpot and let it do its thing.
Does this mean I get in the soup line or
will there be MTing to do, as in VR with editing, or is transcription going to be a thing of the past, anyone know?
just made stupdendous pea soup in crockpot...(nm)

Homemade chicken noodle soup
with huge homemade noodles and tons of chicken and veggies.  Sides of fresh baked hoagies or chicken wings, basted in "Quaker Steak and Lube" hot and BBQ sauce.  Family very very happy and it is cold here.
A friend of a friend is taking CareerStep - sm
she is under the misguided idea that she will be making very good $ upon completing the course (a friend of hers supposedly makes $55K a year). I told her no way, at least not starting out and not unless all the factors click together, i.e. good typing speed, good pay (not for a newbie), good dictators (unlikely) and dedication to working hard. I told her what I make after 5 years (16K) but that is PT and I have the potential to double that if I would push myself, not procrastinate so much (I web surf way too much) and work more than I already do. I am not a fast typist but am good at what I do. I will be surprised if she follows though. She told me she'd call me when she finished the course, I just hope she is ready for reality.
homemade potato soup, cornbread, and just finished

Onion soup mix, 1/2 cup Madiera wine, carrots, potatoes.

Cook roast slowly (325 for about 3 hours, add the potatoes and carrots, cook another hour, and serve.

Or just slice onions on top the roast, add about 1/2 cup water, put in covered dutch oven, cook same as above, adding potatoes and carrots.

Scalloped potatoes do not have cheese

The cheese slid off his cracker.

Swiss cheese report

I know exactly what you mean!  I've had my share of those!  All last week was horrible.  They came out of the woodwork!    So I took Wednesday off due to frustration and went shopping!   


The flannels and a movie sound great!  That's just what I did when I got home from shopping!


Eggrolls with plum sauce, fried rice (flied lice), and eggdrop soup.

That reminds me of a new doc who sm
came on when I worked for the hospital. He wanted to impress everyone, too, with his dictation.Nothing was ever shorter than 20 minutes. One year later, his DC summaries were 30 seconds total and only after he was suspended for not dictating at all!  So, they do change, sometimes not for the better.
by the looks of him, he reminds me of --sm
pee wee herman! yuk. Since he already has some very wide gaps in his story, I am beginning to wonder if he is just looking for his 15 minutes of fame. I hope he is the one, but now I have my doubts. time will tell.
Reminds me again of having

The American workers took forever, did not show up when they were supposed to, used my bathroom, and demanded beverages (not water).  They wanted Pepsi.  All they did was complain about the heat and also broke the filter so my husband had to go buy a new one.  The cursed, brought their kids with them to play on the swingset in my backyard because they didn't have a sitter. 


The landscapers who were Mexican, were quick and I mean quick, worked hard, showed up when they were supposed to, never asked to use the bathroom, and never demanded beverages.  They brought their own.  I offered beverages, they declined.  They never curves, and their kids were left at home.  They finished the job, it was wonderful, and we recommended this particular landscaping company all over time.  I might add, they bid the job at half of the price of the 2-3 American landscaping companies we had come out.  Now, who do you blame?

Reminds me of
Hey, there's great stuff in there.  Love Erma too! 
That reminds me of my dad
He said you NEVER ask anyone their salary, and if anyone had the nerve to ask you about yours, you had every right to lie to them! Tell them anything you wanted - the more obvious the lie, the better.

Ha! That reminds me
when I first starting hearing about Lipitor. I would always think of a boy's action figure and cartoon saying in a deep voice, "I am Lipitor!".
Great one!! I use chedder cheese...yumm nm

Update on my swiss cheese report...
I just checked my feedback and there were 8 QA markers out of the 24 that even QA couldn't get.  Shouldn't that tell someone something?
Have some cheese with that whine... cheesy companies
I am so with you! It's these cheesy MTSOs! I just got my social security statement of my earnings since college and I was blown away... it was great for my self-esteem but pointed out exactly what has been going on. Last year and the year before I made less than working my way through college!!! It was down to 14-15K a year!! No joke. I look back to around 2000 and I was up to 50K a year plus benefits. That had been going on for some time. Even at 2005 I was doing okay, in the 40s. What happened? For a year I thought it was me, but no, my hospital outsourced and I went to a service. Found out they counted lines differently and I bounced from service to service the last 2 years. YIKES. I am now below the poverty level and a single mom. I should take these earnings statements to somebody.. I don't know who. But I am with you! There are only so many hours in the day and only so much work, etc. etc. At least you know there are those like you out there who have the same vent... but we have got to band together and somehow get paid again what we are worth! Good luck to you!
Reminds me of my "pet".
I kept feeling a little tickle on my leg.  I figured it was one of my stray hairs or the fringe from the blanket that's across my chair.  I looked down to find a huge nasty spider on my leg.  I screamed and slapped at it.  My shriek scared the heck out of the kids and made the dog go hide under the bed.
Your dog story reminds me of one of those
Amazing pet stories on Animal planet, about pets that end up adopting people and they actually turn out to do something extraordinary, it seems like she is there for a reason and even if you say you don't have much space, your love and attachement is obviously providing her with more than she had.....oh I'm a sucker on these cases.
Kellie just reminds me of....
yet another Baywatch cookie cutter stringy Barbie doll looking blonde.  Katherine is truly a beautiful young woman.  Maybe it's me, but I just don't find that bleach blonde look very distinctive.  They all look alike to me.  And yes, she's either a very good actress or dumb as a box of hair.  Okay, I can understand being from a place where people don't eat a certain kind of food as a rule "SAL-mon", but to have never heard of a fish called a salmon?  Exactly what rock has she been living under?
Ah, so! Poor doc. Reminds me of one of my...sm
docs who butchers the English language. I called him on repeatedly spelling a term incorrectly (course rather than coarse) and he relied "I was a pre-vet major, not an English major!"

Sorry about the misunderstanding!
Reminds me of systems
I've worked on that used Citrix; not being computer savvy, I don't know if they called it a Citrix server or what, but apparently it was a company that they used for some part of the process, and it was not compatible with the software. They I think they had to switch to some other company to speed things up.

That should be about as clear as mud. Sorry.
This reminds me of a story.

My son has scoliosis and on one of our visits to the orthopedist, he was dictating while we were in the room. At one point, he grabbed the films in the same hand as his recorder to throw them up on the light wall. I just said, "Do you realize that your transcription did not hear anything you said while that x-ray was in your hand?" He just gave me a blank kind of look so I explained that I was an MT and said that if he was having a lot of blanks in his dictation when it was returned, that might be the reason why.


I never heard whether or not it made a difference for the MT or not--he wasn't such as good orthopedist, either, so we changed practices after that.


that reminds me: I had to share my
workstation with a girl on days; she had very long hard nails (admit to being green with envy here!) and it wasn't long before she only only wore off the letters, she managed to poke holes through the keys! I demanded a new keyboard because of safety concerns due to shock hazard.
Oh yeah, that reminds me....
Well over 20 years of this work has also left me hard of hearing! :D
It really is, isn't it? Reminds me of ShamWow

Bacon, egg, and cheese on toasted bagel. DH cooked again.

I dunno know about cottage cheese since lasagna has that (or ricotta) already in it??

Let's see, just got through baking cheese straws, bran muffins,
fruit cake cookies and cheese/sausage balls and DH just came home with a big bag of almond M&Ms.   Probably have a Pepsi to go with it.  No veggies but I think we got all the other food groups - LOL.
