In Reply to: Misha..sounds like a wonderful vacation! sm - Topaz

Glad you enjoyed it :)

A friend told me about it a few years ago...it helped me through some pretty trying times, & I still go there when I need a "shot in the arm", so to speak. 


Have a great day


Glad you enjoyed them! sm
I've gotten a lot of feedback from those songs over the years. I actually performed some of them at the AAMT convention last year in Hawaii, they had a talent show and I won second place! It was a lot of fun, and the MTs in the audience certainly seemed to be able to relate!

Glad you enjoyed them! :o> (nm)

I thought it was just awful. But I'm glad you enjoyed it :).

Yeah, it was great. I really enjoyed sm

seeing it.  She was so guarded and on edge.  But she rarely does interviews or things where she doesn't have absolute control, so probably that factored in.  She was definitely waiting for him to make fun of her, but I think he knows better now.


I loved when she expressed that now she does exactly what she wants to do.  It is hard to fault her for the things she does with her time, and a huge portion of her money.  Good woman.

rid of him but take him to the cleaners with the discrimination issue.
I'm glad that you were able to make a final decision...
and am sorry for your current living situation. It must be very difficult to be going through having your husband in assisted living. I sought an in-house position thinking it would alleviate my loneliness and help me to make new friends/colleagues. I was only in the office for about three weeks, had brought in donuts, bought soft-drinks, etc. just trying to fit in. My initial excitement didn't last long. The two girls in the office would take breaks and order lunch without even asking me. Maybe being home so long has made me naive or hypersensitive, but my feelings were hurt nonetheless. I heard them make remarks about how "chatty" I was. I was just excited to be around people again. After a short period of being around them, I questioned what I possibly missed.

Maybe you could get involved in a local church (if you haven't already). This has been my main source of outside interaction and support.

I wish you the best on your decision. I've been there and know how you feel. Please feel free to email me anytime you'd like to chat, give an update, or even vent a little. :)
So glad I didn't bust my a^^ to make the 10,000 lines!!!!!!!!!

their employees ANYTHING?


MQ acts like we are the ENEMY instead of the people that generate the


junk for their ungawdly profits.


It's called DLS for direct-line-of-sight...mountains could be a problem...sm
I have wireless but hold a direct line of sight to tower only 1 mile away. Mountains could block signal. The only way you could know would be to take the laptop there and see if the signal holds. Are there any neighbors there that might be using it too? That's your best "test." Ignore poster below who talks about router. The initial signal is sent from the tower TO your router, router takes care of wireless internet INSIDE house, not outside. If you do go wireless router inside house, buy one with a speed booster. I have connects of 100.0 mbps routinely.
Can't say I make a great living, but...
I support myself, my disabled husband, and also have 2 grown children at home, which the one pays his bills, but the other is having problems. We are buying our home, paying for our car, and still have enough to eat out a couple of times a week. I make more at home than if I go back out into the work place.
Excellent MTs make great QA.

You CAN make great money
... if you are good and have a decent line rate. I made just under $70k last year working at home in my 2nd full year as a transcriptionist.
must do vacations!
Well, first of all you must have "Me" time. Give yourself a vacation at least once a year. I always take vacations and holidays off and only work minimal weekends!
Vacations
We usually take a big family vacation during Spring Break. We missed this year because my husband had open heart surgery, but in previous years we went to South Carolina, and Club Med in Florida a few times. I'm thankful that my job doesnt require me to work weekends and I get four weeks paid vacation.
vacations
We haven't taken a "real vacation" this year for some reason.  I think because my work has been so back logged, but I see the top now, so perhaps we will take a trip soon.  We have taken several 3-4 day weekends, and I'm usually bored with a place after 3-4 days anyway.  I'm in Texas so I want to go somewhere cool! 
IC vacations
I do fill-in work for a friend of mine when she goes on vacation and the clinic doesn't seem to mind. She just got their permission to have me stand in for her. It seems to work. As an IC, I also take my laptop and work on vacation. I wonder what it'd feel like to actually take a vacation and not work on it LOL
I teach and I make 20.00 per hour. Not that great
but nothing to sneeze at either.  I teach community service classes (medical transcription, anatomy physiology and medical terminology) at a local college.
Hey guys! I just discovered a GREAT way to make $$$

Was just browsing a catalogue my son received from ThinkGeek and there is "Das Keyboard" which is a keyboard WITHOUT letters!!!  It is $80!!!  How many of us have a keyboard like this? 


They have a whole bunch of cute stuff for the geek who has everything if anyone is interested. 


That is great...I used to have to make coffee a specific way...
screw that...Now I may it the way I want it, in my jammies---lol
What car does this Dr drive, vacations does he

Yes, give her a new car - it would make a great Christmas gift!

Sounds great! I may make that tomorrow night.

On their vacations and jets and yachts, etc.

Question for everyone. Do you take annual vacations. If so, where? We take 3 or 4. nm
nm
IC 12 years, took 2 vacations in that time

It is very_difficult to get time off for vacation when you work for yourself and cut out middle people......I do exactly that and I haven't had a vacation since 2005 and before that during 9/11/01.  The offices may understand and allow you 2 weeks but then you have to play *catch-up* when you return, trying to bring them all current.


It's a trade-off for sure, unless you have friends that can cover your vacation time and who you trust with the work. 


 


kettle corn is great, easy to make, and you can spice it up...
and there are pretzels, potato chips, veggie chips. you can quickly roast any kind of nut and spice or sweeten them up. I use sucranat for sugar, or turbanado, anything not bleached.

yummy fruit, fresh or frozen.

lots of things you can do...
Absolutely would. Love my job/career! Make great money. nm

ANNUAL vacations?? lol I haven't had a vacation

Sorry, don't post here often and not familiar. I was saying I make great money and stay at home w
Where do folks get these odd ideas?
Any ideas for family vacations near WV or surrounding states? sm
We are in such NEED of a relaxing fun vacation.  We are from WV.  We love the beach also.  My husband and I have a 3-1/2-year-old son and are thinking about taking a vacation early June or mid-June.  Does anyone have any ideas of a nice relaxing place that would be good for us and our son?  Any websites or details would be GREATLY appreciated.  We have been struggling for about 6 months now due to health issues and finances.  We really are hoping to get our finances in order by then so we can enjoy our family.  Stress has been about to kill us.  Hope you are all doing well and I truly appreciate your suggestions! 
Brain surgeons and the U.S. President take vacations; so can you. The world won't stop if you do!
 
What service pays sick time, not working, vacations, etc.?
Where? I have never gotten paid for any of these, especially sudden illnesses, or I would be rich!
YES, we have really enjoyed it too..
all of what you said, getting xtra time, not running around...schoool...extras but just seems liek today, they have had enough of being at home and they are ready to go back to schoool...
Just saw and enjoyed....

Rumor Has It with Jennifer Aniston and Kevin Costner.  Some of the reviews on Netflix complained that it was predictable, but I didn't think it was.  I thought it was good.


Watched Elizabethtown awhile ago and ended up scratching my head.  I told my sister I had rented it and she said, "Did you get it? I didn't get it."  Nope, didn't get it. Orlando Bloom is very easy on the eyes, but after you've said that...


 


 


I enjoyed seeing her, to each their own
but a lot of times when people are desperate, they will contact any and everyone they think could possibly assist them. I do not know the story of where she intervened on the Hornbeck family. I did not go to her meeting for any "guidance," far from it, I went just to hear her speak and she was really interesting. I have also seen that Edwards fellow, saw him in Vegas but he spent most of the time giving about 4 people out of the audience "readings." I did not care for him particularly. People like the family you spoke of will grasp at straws trying to find out information. Happens all the time. People with cancer will try measures off the chart in order to possibly find a cure for themselves, just happens. I take things like Sylvia with a grain of salt. I did like her message about toxic people. I firmly believe that.
I sure enjoyed the old days.
I started out 28 years ago transcribing for a transcription service, so have always been paid on a production basis. But we sure had fun in the office and we were appreciated for our hard work. Raises were annual. Benefits were as good as those offered by the hospitals. Christmas gifts were nice. The owners would come to town a few times a year and would actually speak to us and express appreciation for what we were doing. I worked with the best group of ladies. Sure do miss those days.
But, you enjoyed doing coding? Did you
find it more stressful than MT? Thanks for answering.
I imagine he enjoyed that
after the Cialis
Definitely enjoyed the "guys" last night sm
a lot more than the girls the night before!  Chris rocked and so did Taylor.  As for the girls... I really like Kelly, Paris and Katherine... that is going to be a hard choice.. Also Mandisa... However, I think this may be the year for the guys - Chris is going to be hard to beat!
Your kitty is a beauty! Enjoyed your

blog.  Like the others, it made me appreciate what I have so much.  Your "little corner of the world" where you work looks so much like mine.  I, too, have my bird feeders and bird bath to look out at.  I also have two kitties who are my "co-workers".  Tip (angel in Thai), my ?-percent Siamese kitty is sleeping right next to my keyboard right now.  Taz (yes, a little black and white devil) stepped away for a while.  Sometimes I get so mad and hate transcription, but we really have to count our blessings.  Working in the comfort and safety of our home with our animal pals and family close by is worth its weight in gold!!! Thanks for bringing a smile to my face, MTBlab. 


So you enjoyed the candy? LOL! My daughter completed college at FIU and
