income do you have to report as earnings or do you have to report everything? My first job was with a company that was really really hateful. I only made 60-70 dollars from them and then I quit. Do I have to claim that as taxable income or not? I go to H&R block and they charge per form that you turn in...that would bite to pay 100 bucks to claim 60 or 70!!! Thanks for the input!

The first season...
comes out on DVD on Valentine's Day. What a great gift that would make! I don't watch much TV myself, but I try to never miss an episode of Grey's Anatomy or House.
i go through it too - hopefully the season where
you live is almost over - thank goodness mine is - hope you feel better soon!
favorite season

Hi


My season is definitely fall.  I am up here in northern Maine and it is so pretty with the leaves changing, etc.  Of course then comes all the snow - and I don't even mind the cold or the snow but since I am getting to be "old and brittle" I am scared of the ice.  However, I really am looking forward to October. 


 


Season 2 out on DVD Aug 30th!

Recap for the first season (sm)
It really is a great show. Love the chemistry on the show between the cast & the story line is never boring. Can't wait until next week!
I think this entire season is going to be -
while he is in the hospital and how the business continues without him.  We won't know if he makes it until the last episode.  Gotta feelin' he won't.  The show will die with him.  - 
funny cuz I think this season was....NM

ER t.v. show; is season done?

The last one I saw was the shootout and have not seen any since.  Did I miss one or was that it for the season?  (If I missed one don't tell me what happens.)  Thanks!


I do too, but the season premier was a let down.

Give me any season that the temperature is

75 or below all the time and I love it. I don't like hot weather and can stand the cold much better. After all, I can always put on enough clothes to stay warm but I can't necessarily take off enough (not legally, anyway, LOL) to get cool.


Anyone who would watch this season again would be masochist!

another hint for loney this season

After your little one gets off to school, head for the nearest Mc'D's or Burger King..lot's of nice working guys stop in for breakfast on a regular basis. 


My sister actually met her new hubby by doing this and he gathers with his buddies every morning.  He is an awsome guy and of course, working


Height of hurricane season is Aug-Oct. (SM)
A friend booked a FL vacation during September. Told her don't do it.  She still did.  She had to cancel the entire vacation and "could not believe a hurricane hit."  I always told family/friends to never go anywhere in the Atlantic, Gulf, FL, islands during hurricane season but they book it anyway because it's cheaper, then they complain about hurricanes ruined their plans.  DUH!
Monday's season finale
I taped Sunday's show and watched it tonight, and immediately watched tonight's show. I can't believe what Izzie did. I certainly was glad I could buzz thru the boring part about planning the prom so I could get to the important parts. I thought Denny was safe, but not so fast. Very tender how what's-his-name intern picked Izzie up and held her at the end. I'm furious that Meredith and Derek are back at it. She's weird, self-absorbed, childish, ugly, and slutty, so get over her already, Derek! You so don't deserve your wife!

Glad I don't get overly involved in mere TV shows like some people, hehehe.
I agree that it's weak this season...sm
and if Katharine wins I'm going to need a barf bag. I can't imagine she'd sell records to anyone other than the guys who want to look at the picture of a pretty girl. She always looks so stuck-up and stuck on herself and my fiance and I still think that someone in her family line made Simon & Randy apologize to her when they did 3 weeks ago. I hope Taylor wins but doubt I'd buy anything he'd record either.

In order to keep the voting fair they really should make it 1 vote per phone number - that way we'd know who really was liked by the public and not who had the most people using the automated programs to vote hundreds of times for them.
Just stay away from Florida during hurricane season. nm

I was a recap of the first season to bring you up to date.
Another show did that recently too.  Next week starts the new season and yes, she lost the baby (ectopic if I remember correctly).
I watch the season DVDs through Netflix.
If I start watching a series, I really get frustrated when I have to miss, and I cannot be certain I will be able to watch it straight through.  My life is so hectic I am not certain I could watch a whole show without interruption.  I watch the season DVDs through Netflix.  I get to watch them commercial free.  Yes, I watch them later than everyone else, but it is less frustrating for me this way. 
I heard they are making 20 shows - 12 for this season - 8 for next and that's it

Yeah and it pretty much stinks so far this season.

The 2-hour season finale is on tonight! nm

anybody bored with this summer? favorite month/season?
too hot to do anything.  give me late september or early october please.
Totally not MT related, but where is the new season of Fear Factor on NBC? nm

We have propane and hubby pre-orders and pre-pays for the season, sm
Most economical way for us to go. Turn temp down to 65 overnight and use lots of blankets overnight. Use humidifier. The humidity helps the air feel warmer.
I agree also - I have quit watching this season altogether.

Sports - 1 sport a season. Fall = football for son and volleyball for daughter. sm
Their class load and homework is enough; however, the love sports and are great at too. So, I allow one sport per season, meaning Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer. Fall = football and volleyball.

Winter = swimming and winter volleyball.

Spring = Lacrosse for both.

Summer = whatever they choose.

They choose what they want and if they choose not to do a sport any particular season, that is fine with me. They do not go out on school nights and their weekend activity is limited due to their sports. It works, and they stay out of trouble and both are on the honor roll.

Too many activities is just too stressful both all. My kids will tell me when they feel burnt and need a day off and I am fine with that. I tell them to stay home that day from practice.

It works for us.
Mine are in year-round thank goodness! They've started their new year 2 months ago.

Union diesil mechanic - good pay, great benefits. We swap year to year on who brings home more sm
money.....but I am an IC and he has all the benefits...health insurance/dental that the company pays for, pension plan, 401k, etc.  Factor all of that in and he makes way more than I do.

Not only did I finally receive the proper training, but the woman on the advisory board hired and mentored me. I also joined the local AAMT and networked. Good luck. I know how frustrating it can be. A community college will have a good program to include medical language, MT courses taught by local MTSOs, business English, anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, etc.
I think he makes $700,000.00 a year, and if they ask him to walk before his first year MQ has...sm

to pay him a cool 1 million dollars.  You can check this out at the Medquist website.   I think the CFO makes $350,000 a year, and the head of IT makes $250.000 a year.


P.S.  This does not include the perks, like expense account, car allowance, sign-on bonus, etc. 


Our 16 year old son has been working for a year now to pay for his truck.
He's learning how to sand and do body work and how the engine and transmission go together. My parents didn't buy cars for my siblings and I either. I had a 20+ year old beater car until I could afford to move up to a a newer one.

I see all the nice new cars parked in the high school parking lot every day. It's nice that so many disrespectful punk kids get handed something nicer to drive than what all the teachers drive. Oh, well. Honestly, I think most of them borrow Mommy or Daddy's car or are the child of a doctor who can afford to hand them everything.

Hopefully, my kids will take better care of their cars because they bought and built them on their own. You're not going to grow up to be responsible if you don't work hard for something and expect Mommy and Daddy to bail you out all the time.

Oh, my Dad lectured us on even allowing our child to have a vehicle because Dad didn't have one until after he had worked his way through college, lettered on the football team, got straight As, lettered on the baseball team, yadda yadda. He either walked or hitched a ride. Yeah, well, times were different back then, Daddy-O. LOL At least my kid has the opportunity to work and earn his own car.
IC - 30 hours week, $98K last year. So far this year - 28K. sm
Individual IC - own account(s).
Not me, owed last year, and expect to owe this year- sm
or break even, had more expenses this year. Only owed $200 but still don't want to owe at all. Need to start doing estimated tax payments again so I don't owe! Guess I will get off my butt and do that this year.

Got $$$$ back last year but this year
I have to pay them, sold a property I never lived in but I had enough sense to set aside $45,000 so just waiting on them to send me my WT2s so I can get started.
Ask me next year. sm
I quit as an IC telecommunting for a hospital where I was making $35,000 a year, and started for a national as an employee in April. So far, only made $4600 with them. Big OUCH! But just getting the hang of expanders and the 4 accounts I have.

Can't wait to see my end of year :(
less and less every year - sm
Used to be about $35,000, now is about $30,000

anyone have any ideas?  I am positive after I put in the new card back in early 02/2005 it read 756. So if anyone had any insight or suggestions I'd appreciate it.....might explain why my computer has been a bit slow lately...we have also had a lot of power surges/outages lately, but I do have battery back up now (after it wiped my work out 2 x), maybe it got fried from that?  TIA.
About a year now. Don't like it. NM

3 year old
I am very glad you have a happy ending. A friend of mine, who is an MT, had the same thing happen to her with a tragic ending. Her son had drowned in a pond on their property. He was also 3 years old. They just don't realize the danger.

Make sure he removes his make up before he goes to sleep, LOL.
Big S does. For one year.
I am actually thinking of dictating the information into a microcassette and then hiring a typist to type it out for me.
