Mine used to vomit with the toilet flushing or while in the shower. Never made any noise at all.

In Reply to: It's not a fad. You need her doc to refer you to a therapist for her. Took my teen years to get - over this same behavior. nm

Misha...you just made me vomit in my mouth!

That was GROSS!     


Then again you could end up w/one that nurses q2h like mine did! Lucky to get a shower in even. nm

I don't know how it made such a small diff in your invoice... made a $100 diff in mine! (sm)

If it were only adding up to three bucks, I wouldn't sweat it. $100? Yeah, that's baseball registration for my son for this year. I am not giving tabs, returns, etc. away free when it adds up to that much difference!  Why should I charge less for a Return than I would for a"K"?


 


 


Mine is a custom made computer.

You might try wireless keyboard and mouse--mine by Microsoft made it better to type faster. SM
You might try wireless keyboard and mouse--mine by Microsoft made it better and I was typing faster.

Just keep the wireless "thing" that both the mouse and keyboard transmit to (and the part that is connected to the computer) out in the open, not covered up by papers, books, etc.

I tried to go back to my other keyboard, the one that plugs in, and could hardly type on it. The wireless keyboard was a lot faster and so it is less work.

Hope this helps.
My production went in the toilet....

toilet mouths
I live next to two toilet mouths. They are constantly getting "divorced" and never do. They yell the "f" word at each other and have used it on both my husband and I if we go outside to sit on our deck. He thinks if he goes out to smoke a cigarette, we shouldn't be sitting there. He thinks we are "watching him."  We have never said anything to them about this as they are incapable of a decent conversation. Once my husband did ask them not to throw stuff on our property because if a leaf off our tree falls in their yard, or as much as a stick off a branch, they throw it back in ours. Once he threw a shovel of acorns back on our property and when I knocked at the window, he told me to go (you know what) myself. How do you tell this to the cops if they're not present? I have to bring the grandchildren in during their "f" word fights, as their parents would never use foul langugage in front of them. I am not a saint, but I'm sick of having to close my windows. She goes out with her girlfriends and they come home drunk and hollering at 2:00 AM but just enough to wake everyone and then they go in and finish their night out. He tells her he is "way far up from her" whatever that means, and he goes out with his buddies.He toots the horn if the girlfriends park in his parking spot at 2:00 am, how do you explain this?  Things would be quiet by the time the police arrive. Apparently she wants to buy him out but can't get a mortgage, so they both stay and fight. We have never in 18 years seen them go out together. How can you call the cops and tell them you don't want to live like this? Am I the "word police" or what? I'm tired of living like this. I plan to stay where I am but honestly hope there is a typhoon or something that will blow that house out of my back yard.She yells constantly that she has a right to "live her life." She has an expired CNA and calls herself a "private duty nurse" although all she does is clean peoples' houses and take them shopping. At one point she took an 81-YO Alzheimer's patient home with her and offered him some wine and used the "f" word on him because she apparently sleeps there a few nights a week while his people go out to the casino and he wakes her up singing.  Other than record her, which would not stand up in court, how do you deal with this type of behavior? I am sure the police have better to do and need more evidence. I would love to get some of these long "f" word fights on tape and end it all and get them arrested, especially knowing people pay her to care for their loved ones. She brags that any money she makes goes "right in here," pointing to her bra. Where are the laws to protect us and to protect people who prey on the elderly?
They can ask you to scrub a toilet sm
if they want to.  You have a warped way of looking at working.
It is definitely a BOY thing w/toilet training..nm

Cleaning the toilet. I live with five males.
Why should I have to clean it?  I don't miss!!! 
I disagree. If you ALLOW this industry to go in the toilet and move to another
with the next career and the next and the next? When will it stop? When WE put a stop to it!  It's common sense. 
No self-respecting prostitute would clean someone's toilet either
Such low expectations. Sad.
One of my mom's friends has a whole closet with nothing but toilet tissue in it.
It seems like there is ALWAYS a reason, it's just hard to figure. I'll do that sometimes, come home with a whole bag of something, open the cupboard and realize i already have it!
My mother in law has tons of toilet paper too!
I mean probably 30-40 rolls at any given time and always feels the need to get more. She says she does that because she was poor as a child and she feels secure when she has a lot of something. She also buys tons canned food, shampoo and soap. Everbody has their reason and it really probably is all about feeling secure having what you think you need.
take a shower?

I would do ANYTHING else. Cleaning skids/splatters/pubes off in a stranger's toilet

Baby Shower
I had a baby shower for my second child because my daughters are 10 years apart and I had given everything and I mean everything away. My friends planned a surprise shower for me. It was very much appreciated in my situation.
I've heard worse. I had one doc who dictated while on the toilet and didn't even wash his han

I do that, too. I don't like to shower first to power clean
the house because then you get all sweaty with cleaning chemicals all over.
just had a shower for twins 2 mths ago

The gift baskets as mentioned by some posters were the hits.  Bathtub filled with all the bath essentials, diaper changer or pale with all diapers, wipes, etc, bottle sets, bib's, socks, blankies and all the basics. 


Since it was twins, we also had people pitch in with dinner dates...pick a night and bring dinner for the exhausted new parents.  They ended up having fantastic food for over a month


Shower for first...diaper party for second.

It was lots of fun and I received so many diapers and wipes, which I was so thankful for.  It was much smaller and more personal. Not to mention, it was nice to have a party, even small, to welcome the second baby.


Got a baby shower invitation

from a cousin who NEVER attends any showers, weddings, graduation parties, NOTHING. Not just my stuff, but doesn't attend for *anyone* in the entire family not even her siblings and their kids. Doesn't send a gift. Doesn't RSVP with an excuse, not even a lame excuse. Just totally ignores everyone. No one can believe she had the nerve to invite EVERYONE to her event. LOL.


I'm not going, not sending a gift either. It isn't that I am selfish, I just can't understand why someone who doesn't care to participate in family giving ALL OF A SUDDEN decides she wants to participate in family RECEIVING.


I wish them well, but I'm just not interested. What do you guys think? Am I wrong?


 


 


 


Boy do I hear that!!! STOP transcribing right now. take a shower, lie down. NM

A long hot shower works wonders, or take some
Tylenol and lay down for about 20 minutes and give it time to kick in.   Take a short walk if the heat isn't unbearable where you are.  I know if you hurt you may not feel like it, but probably part of your aches are because you don't get enough exercise - I know that is my problem.   I have recently had to start taking a break about every hour and move around for 15 minutes and that has helped a bit.  
Having a baby shower for my sister this weekend

Any ideas on food, games, etc.? 


One game that I have decided to play is 'guess what baby had for lunch.'  You put baby food in diaper and have everyone guess what flavor.  I have already planned my food; however, I want something different. 


I love baby shower games.

You can make a diaper out of a paper napkin.  Whoever gets the "dirty" diaper (with peanut butter in it) wins a prize.  Taste the baby food contest where everyone gets a dollop of several kinds of baby food on a paper plate, and you have to guess what's what.  Pick the baby safety pins out of a bowl of rice blindfolded.  Scoop the cotton balls off the floor into a bowl blindfolded with a spatula.  The memory game where you look at a tray full of baby items for one minute, then write down as many as you can remember.  All of the baby items go to the Mom-to-be at the end of the game.  You can find cute little prizes at the dollar store.


The other poster is right.  There are tons of baby shower websites out there to snag ideas from  Have fun with it!


Is there anything that truly cleans textured shower floors? (sm)
I'm talking about mostly water stains, as well as on shower doors. I can get the soap scum out. TIA!
It's been ages since I was invited to a baby shower.
Care to share?  What's the ONE thing or several if you must that you WISH somebody had gotten you but didn't when you had your baby showers?  Maybe there's someone here with a new baby who could share what they'd have appreciated as a shower gift.  Thanks.
I received an invitation to a baby shower that shocked me....sm

It was for a friend having her second baby...already strange because I thought baby showers were only for the first baby, when you don't have any of the necessary items. The worst part, though, was that printed on the invitation was the ADMISSION PRICE to the party! It was a tea party at a tea room of some sort. It also was printed on the invitation what gift to bring! 


I chose not to go to the party. I politely declined and gave an appropriate gift of my own choosing at a later date.


 


 


Totally! I opted out of going to a cousin's wife's 2nd shower
after only 3 years! Ridiculous. The baby was even the same sex. And SHE never got rid of anything. So, I heard later that she took just about everything back to the store for refunds/exchanges! Really something, huh?
In my family, shower for first baby only, unless it has been an unusually long time between
pregnancies and things would already be given away or outdated.  I had a regular shower for baby outfits, strollers, etc, but also had a "diaper/general use" shower for diapers, bath stuff, lotions, etc, and this was great because it gave me a chance to stock up.
i made $15/hr before and didn't stay long because i made so much more on production. sm
that was with full benes too. i wouldn't do it for less than $20, but i think even with $20, i'd want benes. are you in-house?
I use ergonomic keyboard, gloves, splints at night, but sometimes what works best is a cool shower.

Funny! Mine is almost as large, and I don't mind cleaning mine!
It's no problem at all.  Besides, I'll take lots of oodles of square footage any day of the week over living in a sardine can!
noise
Mine are skipping pingskip ingipsk gnippiks along with bzzzzzzzz shhhhhhhh rrrrrrrrum
Noise
I have Philips brand for around $60. Be aware that noise canceling may imply that they drown out exterior noise, but from what I've learned, it actually means that it clarifies the sound coming into the headphones of crackles, etc. I can still hear my household noises clearly. I was disappointed in that aspect. They are comfortably padded and large to fit over the ears, but they don't drown out my kids, phone, etc.
As for the noise
I was hoping that if we could pinpoint which cars it is coming from, we could call the police out however many times it takes to get them to give a warning, then fine, then jail, then so on.  This is disturbing the peace.  The police around this area don't like to have to come out more than once for the same problem.
noise
in most areas there is a noise cut off usually about 10 pm - after that call the police station - not necesssarily 911, just the station. Normally they will come out and quite them down. Good luck
must have noise
I would probably save a ton on electricity but I keep the TV on in the background. Have to have noise. It is also something to look at when aggravated by really bad dictators that like to long pause or hold conversations with others while dictating - and these are numerous to me.
I have to have noise
I have the TV on when I work. Of course I can also hear the TV in the other room and my daughter playing when she's not in preschool. At night when I'm all alone I have to have the TV on. I can't stand the quiet.
noise(sm)
I used to complain but after years of practice, I learned to get over it, and take the attitude of who else would do these jerks? Made me a lot of money. Carry on!
ditto on the noise
your post made me laugh - i totally know, though, that it's not funny what you're going through because i've had the noise thing occur more times than I can count.

White noise sm
I have a small TV and Bose radio/CD player in my office.  I worked 30 years in a clinic setting and am just used to working with the sound of people around me.  I have remotes to those two things, plus remote for ceiling fan/lite and DVD player on desk, lol.  I think it might be time to get a universal remote.
I sometimes miss the noise of the sm
keyboard. I really liked the sound of the IBM wheelwriter. My kids use to say it sounded like shooting a gun when I would be in my office typing.
I concentrate better with a little noise

I have found my mind starts to wander if it is completely silent while I work.  I also tend to hear the birds and incidental outside noises and get distracted.  If I have the tv on with my back to it, it seems to keep me focused on my work.  I don't quite get it but it works for me. 


noise machines
If I may jump in here, they are sometimes also clock radios with nature sounds, or you can buy just the "noises" alone.  Wal Mart sells them too and places line Linens N' Things.  I have one with a white noise button because I'm a light sleeper, and it works great.  Check the electronics dept. 
Neighbor Noise
Any chance of selling your place and getting a little place in the country? We live far out and have high speed internet and only critter noise to deal with. Your hours are tough ones. Don't you hate those friends who call when they know you need to be sleeping and say, "I hope I didn't awaken you."
Me too, I can't stand noise.
When you say "clicks" can you describe? I am currently using the Compaq keyboard that came with the computer and it's the best so far with regard to "feel" layout, but its far from quiet. I'm not looking for total silence necessarily, but very very quiet (laptop like) would be outstanding.

Anyone? Anyone? Ferris?
Not the OP, but man I can't stand that noise! Need very
