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.

Beauty Without Cruelty
These products are also not tested on animals and do not use animal products in them.  I think a lot of aging has to do with sun exposure.  I don't have the around-the-eye wrinkles, but do have forehead lines because I squint.
Thats the realy beauty of this job
I can have my 12-pack Bud cooler right here besides me and type naked.
Go to Sally's Beauty Supply
I use the Wella color-- comes in a small bottle. Buy your own developer. It is professional quality stuff and the sales people are knowledgeable.
Beauty Online Store
Hi
As in your guestbook to include support html?
You could try a local beauty school
Their rates are extremely reasonable.  The one near me only allows students to cut and style hair who are about to graduate so they are quite good !  Can't beat the price - about $7 !
Go to a beauty supply store in your area and ask them.
You can buy the professional stuff even if you're not a beautician. My SIL says not to use the box stuff. She buys tubes of coloring and uses two or three different shades to get more highlights and lowlights so it looks more natural instead of being unicolor. She's a licensed cosmetologist/beautician or whatever they're called nowadays.

Is this beauty control? I use to sell, but never did parties. SM
I had my opening party, but that was it. I served the food at the table in the kitchen. Everyone just helped themselves and then sat in the chairs I had out in the livingroom to eat. Once we got started, everyone pretty much disposed of their plates and then settled in. I think it worked out good. I had everything ready when they showed up, but I think that everyone pretty much waits until other people get there before they start eating. I would definitely offer drinks when they get there though.

The menu sounds great, so don't worry about that. Seems like a lot of variety for them to choose from.

Don't be nervous...just relax and enjoy it. That's the purpose of the spa party :) Good luck!
Any tattoo shop mostly, hot topic, sally's beauty supply...SM

Any place that pierces, head shop, etc. Hope that helps.

So glad he is okay. Had a similar episode with Stuart a kitty we adopted in July. He had cold-like symptoms and weighed less than 1 pound. Took atbc, Lysine and eye drops and is now fine. Hope you have the same results.

not sure what heppened - validated email and my post did not appear - anyway - kittens and cats are susceptable to blood disorders, tragic but true - I am an avid cat lover, kitty blood from my grams in me - keep us posted - OK?

Possible Solution For Kitty
I have a female cat who does the same thing. She tries to use her box and never attempts to do her business anywhere else in the house. She just has a little problem determining her positioning in the box. I have a big roll of 33-gallon plastic garbage bags and use these under the box. If Miss Kitty misses and pees over the edge, I just remove the plastic garbage bag and dispose of it and put a new one down. These cats are trying to do the right thing, but they just have a little trouble...LOL. Also, I agree that a bigger, uncovered box might be a good idea for your big boy. Good luck!
Big kitty troubles...
I also have a big kitty though not quite as big as yours. He does not quite seem to get his rear in to do his number two business either and it always ends up on the floor in front of the box. I have a regular size litter box and my mother has said they come in larger sizes and has suggested trying this. I plan to purchase one ASAP! He never goes on the floor and is very clean otherwise.

To the other poster who suggested just throw him outside, to some that would be like throwing a family member out of the house; I could never even consider that. There are other options and I know my kitty does not do this on purpose, he just needs an adjustment made to meet his particular needs. Good luck in finding what works for you and your big furry friend!
Sorry about your kitty, glad he's better. (SM)
I have 2 cats. When they were kittens they sat in my lap together, then they switched to the monitor. One of them still dominates the monitor and is hovering like Snoopy in Vulture Mode right now! I could not venture a guess how much cat hair must be in there! Anyway, it is one of the reasons I will try to stay working at home - KITTIES!

LOL I can relate. I have a naughty little kitty, too.
The house can be so quiet during the day with the kids and husband all gone. Then kitty decides it's time to play. He likes to try to get my Betta fish out of the bowl. He pounces on my dogs to get them to chase him around and around the house. He tries to claw the walls, furniture or carpet. He rubs against me and wants to be held. He jumps up on my keyboard or lap. He can't play with his toys. Oh, no! He's got to bug me. Sometimes, he's so frustratingly attention seeking that I have to stick him in "his" room until I'm done working. He used to sleep in a cubby hole on my desk when he was a tiny kitty. Now, he's so big that he knocks things over. The worst one was when he jumped up on my desk and knocked over a vase full of flowers and water. Crack, splash! All over everything.
Did anybody else see this poor kitty picture?

Copy and paste, you will be amazed and sad at the same time.

MissouriMT - could we have a kitty update?
I posted below, not sure if you saw it though. 
My kitty is sick and I don't know anything about cats.

He's about 3 or 4 months old.  He is a very playful kitty.  Usually attacking my ankles or feet when I work, attacking the dog's tail, etc.  A couple of days ago he just wasn't himself.  Laying around, not playful at all.  Yesterday and last night, he threw up three times, and today he basically laid in the same spot all day long sleeping and barely moving.  I'm not sure when was the last time he used the litter box.  I took him to the vet and they are keeping him overnight.  They indicated he was pretty sick because he didn't resist having his blood taken or being poked on and he didn't try to groom himself after they were done.  We haven't had him long.  We adopted from the animal shelter.  He was the only survivor of his litter and the momma cat was killed by a car. 


I am really bummed for my kids.  We just lost our cat and dog this past winter in a house fire and I just don't know how my kids are going to react if something is wrong with our new kitty.


My kitty drinks out of the toliet as well!
This is my first cat so I'm new to all of this, having dogs all my life. I bet your cat will come back home. My mother's cat goes off all the time and comes back weeks later.
cord biting kitty
I have a cat who has chewed through my foot pedal cord, and I had to go to the store and buy a cored protector to put over the original cord.  I have black electrical tape on most of all my other computer-related cords.  Finally, I purchased some stuff at the pet store called Indoor Bitter End.  I cut the power to everything and carefully sprayed it on all my cords, obviously avoiding exposed wires, plugs, and outlets.  I can say that she hasn't chewed on any of them since I sprayed them!  I type in the basement and know that sometimes it's impossible to confine a cat or kitten and since they have a short attention span are not easily trainable.  Maybe this will help.
My vet told me kitty has to be over 3 pounds--sm
before it can be spade, but since most kitties don't get adopted as soon as they are 6 weeks old, I think that is just a standard on the SPCA site you visited. I waited until my little girl kittie was 6 months old before I had her spade. If the SPCA is specifying six weeks after adoption, it is probably because they are offering some kind of discount if it is done by then.
My kitty likes to sneak under my chair.
He'll brush the tip of his tail every so softly on my leg so I think it's a bug or something.  When I smack at it, he rubs under my hand for pets.  Little weirdo.  He likes to lick my toes, too.  Icky sandpaper tongue.  LOL
Is she ever precious! Looks like she's the deli owner's kitty.
I was hoping she had a home and it looks like she does!
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.
That is such good news, I am sooooo happy for you and Tom Kitty

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.
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)

But, you enjoyed doing coding? Did you
find it more stressful than MT? Thanks for answering.
I imagine he enjoyed that

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.


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!
Glad to see you enjoyed the recipe...
Hope it turned out good for you too...
I thought it was just awful. But I'm glad you enjoyed it :).

Update on Tom kitty - we brought him home Saturday and he is back to his playful self today. SM

I brought him home from the vet on Saturday.  He was still running a temperature, but it was much lower - 103.  It had been 106 when we took him to the vet.  He was still lethargic, but had started to groom himself.  I have antibiotics I have to give him twice a day, by Sunday afternoon he was becoming playful again and was drinking a lot more and started to eat more.  Today, he is back to his old self.  Attacking my PC wires and walking on my keyboard, trying to get my fingers when I type.


I am so relieved! 


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