Morning baby, morning adult. Kids born at 11:30AM (both) are night owls, however. Go figure! :) nm

a video for your entertainment

http://www.microsoft.com/uk/technet/itsshowtime/sessionh.aspx?videoid=9999

I thought it was hilarious.


For entertainment purposes only, but listen to your
aaaaaaaa
They've done nothing in the entertainment industry
Time to double your dosage and take a nap, dear. Sounds like you've gone over the deep end and are taking this way too personally.

You need to get out more.
If you have an Entertainment book there are coupons in it.

Ok, maybe I should just stay in bed LOL How about "every morning" not everyone morning. Wow. C

Suggestion: new board category--Entertainment
Maybe you should consider establishing an Entertainment board, so that the Main Board doesn't fill up with so many long threads about movies, stars, and TV shows. I truly don't mean this as a knock to anyone,--and I enjoy these--but you do have to scroll through a lot of pages sometimes to get to the business-of-MT-type discussions. Just a thought. 
$2500-2600 not counting entertainment, doc/dentist

That's just rent, phone, electric, car, car ins., gas, and food.


As per your request, Pets and Entertainment forums have been added.

It's Monday
I don't know about the rest of you, but I come here to gain insight, vent, laugh, commiserate, learn, and share.  Maybe we can start the week by ignoring the few that come on here to attack, belittle and chastise.  Constructive criticism is great as are differences of opinion. Isn't that what this site is supposed to be all about?  Name-calling and bullying are what we teach our children not to do.  When it happens TO our children, we tell them to ignore it. 

Monday was my day too!

Hey all...


Yes, it was a bad Monday.  I also was told they were replacing me with a service.  She had said that it would be easier with having the same service do the two doctors that I did, and would that be okay with me.   It made me sad because yes, I count on that money to make ends meet, but rather than beg and plead, I said okay, and she said it will be a month before changing over.   I was just hoping there might be a way I can counter offer and keep this account, but I haven't a clue how I might access the hospital system's dictation as an IC....they are wav files.   I do have my Start/Stop player.   Any suggestions would be appreciated.   I try to believe in the philosophy of when one door closes, another window opens....and that is a good way to think, but right now I am very depressed because this economy and surviving is getting so very tough.    Thank you....ps, I have been doing MT for 27 years now, so pretty late to start over elsewhere. 


You will have paycheck on Monday 711/05

Try again Monday night.
I'll keep trying. 
Wow, a party on a Monday? Can I come?? (sm)
I'll bring food too; I'm a good coo, I swear I am!.
Monday Goals

I thought that it would be good if we use each week as a chance to improve ourselves.  We can each set a goal (it doesn't matter if it is big or small) and then we will share it with everyone to get us more motivation to complete it.

Here is my goal for this week:
I will do the dishes at least once this week.


A little background on this goal:  I hate housework.  I don't want SO to feel like I take advantage of him so I am going to try to make more of an effort around the house.


Anyone else with a goal and background for it?


Monday blooper

It was dictated as Allergies:  Sulfones. 


I transcribed "Allergies:  Cell phones"  . . . . until I realized what I'd done. 


Somebody beat me with a wet noodle!


It is NOT Monday, darn it!!!!
But it's going to be one of those days!  I had a doctor give the date of service as 4-8-05, and now I have one of the very worst ESLs ever dictating a colonoscopy, and he says the throat was sprayed with Xylocaine!  Think these guys have been hitting the eggnog a bit early?
Monday - I will lose an account

I just did the stupidest thing.  I could cry but it would not help.  I will lose this account due to my carelesness and not thinking.  I accidentally just erased two "undone" tapes and kept two "finished" tapes.   So on Monday I have to tell the doctor and if I were them I would fire me.   They have been my account for 4 years but have been patient with me at times through some personal problems -- yucky divorce -- and I do a good job at a very reasonable rate but I would not blame them if they fired me.  I just want to take myself out and beat myself silly.  But there is nothing I can do right now and so oneward and upward -- I guess.  But this will hurt as it is my largest account and I am a small MTSO so I will be out pounding the pavement for something. 


Thanks for listening. 


Oprah show Monday-have you let yourself go?? sm
I must admit this is me ever since I started working at home 6 years ago. Too easy to do. 6 months since a decent haircut, too many kids to look after and too much work to get done. I thought others might appreciate thesubject matter. Happy watching.
Oops..Monday=money

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.
Thx for the laff on this dreary Monday! :) nm

well, I interviewed for an in-house job Monday
She said by today, Friday, she would let me know if I got the job.  She told me I was high on the list of being hired, but she was still interviewing.  It is already nearly noon and I have not heard a word.  I looked at the job board and the ad for an MT is gone.  Is that bad news for me? 
Monday night pet loss ceremony
So very sorry for your loss. Here's a great link:

http://www.petloss.com/ceremony.htm

Every Monday, people all over the world remember their pets. You can add your pet's name to their list.
Here is their prayer:

PRAYER: God, Creator of all living things, we ask that as we light our candles, the healing warmth of love will flow into the brokenhearted who are tending their ailing pets.
Give to them Your strength and comfort.
We also pray that the soft glow of light will part the clouds of grief and sorrow to surround our furbabies at the Bridge.

May excitement REIGN SUPREME as wagging tails, ecstatic purrs and flapping feathers feel our gentle touch once again.
May they know the gratitude we hold in our hearts for their faithfulness and gift of unconditional love as they are forever remembered.
We are temporarily separated for only a short while.
The silver cord that connects us through time and space can never be broken.

AMEN.

Yup. Sun-Thurs. I do the Monday holidays. It's fine with me.

We were $2.42 on Monday - shot up to $2.99 today and expected....sm
to go well over $3/gallon because of the pipeline distribution problem.  The governor has declared a state of emergency and is urging folks to not drive anymore than necessary while they're getting emergency shipments of fuel in. 
How's your work load going Monday, January 9?
Just wondering if we are all in the same boat, sinking because of India oursourcing.
I believe it is next Monday, the 19th, as the kids have off school for it.

Try the Hewlett-Packard site. On Monday they...sm
had computers with XP on sale.
Monday night- Friday, and either Saturday or Sunday, or both -sm
I usually goof off Saturday (or do very minimal work Friday night and Saturday) and then regret it and have have about 130 minutes to do on Sunday, does not make for a fun day.
Ok, thanks. I guess I don't realize the volume of applicants they get. I will call Monday A.M.!!

Monday 8/22. Used to start after Labor Day, but the kids didn't get out until sometime in June.

The so-called "reality show" is the lowest form of so-called entertainment in recent years
I hate them. They've ruined TV.
I can here this morning
For the first time. I don't know who you are and who you are lashing out at but YOU need help.
Got her in this morning, thanks. NM

Doing 60 lph this morning so far. : (
I get up every day with a positive attitude, and start typing away.  Same BAD dictators, skipping all around in reports, and some areas garbled beyond recognition.  I'm just venting, but it is so hard to keep going on day after day like this, making no money and being frustrated beyond belief.  It takes so many hours just to make 1000 lines like this.  ARGH~!!!!!!
I did everything this morning between 6:00 AM and 9:00 AM.

 Now I am sitting here after having had a tea party with DD, decided to check out the boards, and will hopefully have some more work in a bit.  I always end up getting my line count by the end of the day, but when I'm in "the zone", it is frustrating to have to wait for work to come in. 


I got up this morning and...
called my Daddy to tell him what I did.  I am crying again, but these are tears of empowerment and true joy.  I put my music on, rather than that darn TV that he was addicted to and my children are dancing.  DANCING!  We were opposites on so many levels and had nothing in common.  He has no more control and I am sooooo okay for the first time maybe ever.  I feel so strong with all of you behind me.  Your words I will cherish forever.  God Bless All of You!  More updates to come...            
Did you see GMA this morning....sm
story about working at home as a customer service rep.... anyone not happy with job/and or income should check it out. 
a pot a day...in the morning though
Couldn't go without it!
Your morning
ROFL! That darn gravity! I always told my kids that if there was no arterial spurting or bones protruding through the skin, get ready for school.
Then why were there 152 on this morning?
And 57 on in the middle of the night? Honestly people...can you really be this suspicious of the entire world?
GOOD MORNING!

Let's here some positive thoughts for the day, okay?  I like my job (Not love because I'd rather not have to work at all)!  I have worked at some nice offices and not so nice offices but this is the best.  My own! (Finally finished office after adding on 4 years ago)  Sure, I have bad days when I really don't feel like working or the phone rings 100 times a day or DH or kids need this or that every 5 minutes but for the most part where could I work with no one breathing down my neck or I can get up and get a drink of water or go to the bathroom without having to tell someone that I'm doing it and still get paid twice I would be making if I was still in-house.


Come on!  Let's here positive things and encourage each other today!  (I am not slamming any complainers because I am one also, just want some positive input today)


I love this board!


Our prices went from $2.55 to $2.99 this morning. nm

I heard about this on CNN this morning, however
The employer deducts it on their taxes to charity and the employee has lower income, hence not paying taxes on that amount.
I do sometimes but usually do the lunches in the morning -sm
I now start earlier, i.e. 6:30/6:45 and have it all done by 7, (was stressed myself last year) get the shoes on, hair brushed, kids fed, teeth brushed by 7:20 then do our 6-mile drive to the bus stop. Can be rushed some, but now not so nuts and better organized this year. Just give yourself an extra 15 minutes and pre-do all the stuff you can the night before, i.e. potato/corn chip bags, crispy bars, whatever. Makes it much smoother.
When I got up this morning I saw the words
"bodies found" and had to rub my eyes to see if I was dreaming.
