We have such gorgeous weather here today, Easter Sunday!

What about where you are?! 


 


 


At gas station 12 yrs ago pumping gas - me in my daisy dukes & sports car; he in his sports car!

Yep, we live in cold climate too. Getting outdoors is a MUST in good weather.

good job! watch out for the truck

being in your name because whatever he does will come back on you so if he crashes and hurts someone, they can come after you.  my x took all the keys so I had another set made and they didn't work so I reported it stolen and let the cops get it from him. (the car was only in my name)  plus it adds to your paper trail that you're going to need to keep yourself protected. 


don't you feel better all ready!


LOVE ER!!! I watch the re-runs every day, and watch the new ones on Thursday night!!

That's a definite red flag...

By all means, if you can, find a vet that'll get you in as an emergency.  If your regular vet doesn't see patients on an emergency basis, honestly, it's time to find another one.  I have 3 cats & 2 birds, & if I had a vet who wouldn't take one of my "kids" STAT, I'd be going somewhere else. 


In the meantime, please give her ((((BIG HUGS)))) & lots of kisses from me & my "kids".  BTW, what's her name?  I'll keep her in my prayers  


Definite hospital-sm
I've worked for a hospital for 10 years as an IC but worked their two years before going home.  Training in-house makes transcribing the difficult doctors that much easier.  You have access to the charts which helps you get a feel for the doctor's or hospital's set up for each report alot better.
Definite relationship here...
Note that as transcription has moved further and further from the hospital (to outside hospital employee, then to US transcription vendor, then to offshore, and finally to the ultimate form of distance - machine-generated transcription) the hourly compensation and benefits have deteriorated steadily.

As the MT is pushed further and further from the source, she becomes more and more of an faceless and, consequently, powerless entity. Welcome to Never-Never Land!
Yes, definite conflict of interest there.
Speak to your manager and let him/her handle it.
yes this sounds like a definite scam. sm
anytime someone wants money to give you money that is a rip off. I am on disability and have been for 8 years and never have heard anything like that. She needs to change her checking account now!
definite trash. ewwwwwwwwww. nm

I got definite confirmation on this question
for anyone who may be wondering about this in the future. The IN-DB9 will NOT work with Transnet. It must be either the 15-pin with USB adapter or the Dictaphone pedal with adapater (the one that looks like the phone cord).
School sports
I think it's a sign of maturity that he is ready to concentrate on something else. Be glad he is ending it before he gets hurt. My DH has had to have rotator cuff surgery, cervical spine surgery, and knee surgery, all due to high school and college sports.

I saw a news story this morning about a previously healthy boy in grade school who died after his football practice.

You are very fortunate.
According to Fox Sports today . . .
"Hey, we simply didn't play well enough to win," Hasselbeck said. "We can't blame this loss on the calls out there."

Obviously Hasselbeck has more grace and class than the sore losers on this board.


I went to a sports med doctor and got
a steroid injection - I could not even lift and hold a cup of coffee to my mouth - that's how bad it was bilateral elbows. First shot provided complete relief for about 3 months, and then it returned.  Had second shot, and it has been gone now for years!! Way worth it! Don't waste your time with braces and the like. Just fix it! It sure hurts!
Great sports too
Must add, if you are a sports fan, the Denver professional sports teams are always exciting. One of them (football, hockey, basketball, baseball) is usually on track to have a championship year. Denver itself is also a pretty neat city. Can't emphasize enough the beauty of the state and the outdoor opportunities all times of the year. Skiing is admittedly a rather pricey sport, but there are bargains out there if you look hard enough. Also, I notice when I go back home to the Midwest to visit family how healthy Colorado people seem by comparison. I have heard Colorado people are among the healthiest--because there is no excuse not to get out and be active when you live in such a beautiful state. We raised our kids here and, as Debbb says, it is a great place to do that.
High School Sports
I too went through that with my son and his playing baseball.  He was a junior in high school, was offered a full-ride scholarship to college as a pitcher, and just up and quit the sport.  There were so many politics in high school sports, who knows who,  whose kid gets to play because they know the coach, that kind of BS.  I think the kids really feel it and just get tired of it.  My son totally walked away from it, leaving me devastated, but that was his decision.  I cried for him.  Good luck to you!! 
Happens all the time. Make phone calls for more definite action. nm

Parents and children? How 'bout fishing, sports, his job, etc. nm

Who is Drew Lachey? TV, singer, sports dude?

My kids hated organized sports and groups. They

are both social, happy kids, but enjoy spending their spare time with Lego's, pets and especially reading. My 5th grader reads at an 11th grade reading level and my freshman reads well beyond college level. Both enjoy school very much and are on the Challenge tracks, A's and B's. But I think they have learned how to entertain themselves and enjoy a slower pace because we don't have a T.V. Definitely gears down the speed of life.


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.
weather
I live in the Ohio Valley, it's like this all the time here. A few days ago, no coats, this morning 1 inch of snow. I gave up ever switching out winter/summer clothing a long time ago.
weather
what state are you in? I am in Texas and it was 81 here yesterday and this morning at 10 it was 28. No wonder we are all sick! But I love this cold!
weather
I hate it too! By the way, are you in texas?
weather

Really nice here, a little on the warm side for me - 85 degrees in Dallas! 


Texas weather
We haven't hit 100 yet, but i'm sure it is in the near future. Thank God I'm not in arizona!
Same here. The weather outside is gorgeous, though.

I have almost everything caught up around the house now.  Gee, should I go clean something else or read a book outside?


tired of this weather
i never thought i would say it, but it is just too hot for me.  It has been high 90s here all summer and humid.  It usually isnt this hot here.  I want fall to come with some high 50 to low 60 degree weather.  CANT WAIT.  I need cozy days and comfort foods!
During warm weather I do (sm)
but when it's cold my fingers shrink and my rings start spinning around! That's when they come off.
Thanks...and believe me...I do remember that about the weather...
My uncle says that all the time...LOL. Nice to hear a little bit of 'home'!
Thanks Patti! How's the weather in OR? I sure
s
Oregon weather
It is cold in the morning but dry and sunny throughout the day up to about 50.  Beautiful on the river.  Know that our wet weather is coming soon though.  Gotta run and make deliveries. 
At least you have beautiful weather most of the year. nm

Sunday's the day
Received an e-mail that Fox News had started the boycott, and not to buy gas on Sundays. The e-mail I received was not date specific.
Every Sunday
I work 9 hours every Sunday, but this was the schedule that I created.
How's the weather in Bangalore? usually stops them in their tracks

When a US rep of SBC called to try to get me to switch my cable service for their high-speed interent, I told them no, I don't willingly deal with companies who have all their customer service "help" offshore.  She pointed out that I probaby pay more to use my local cable service.  Yes, I agreed, I do pay more...and I talk to people in my community and can even go talk to them in person if I want to. 


But asking how the weather is in Bangalore is a nice way to break the ice with someone at a call center in India. Weather reports are definitely not part of their scripts.


And with this awful bitter cold weather
going ballistic on the drivers when they do return!
we have had beatiful weather here in Santa Clara
funny how the weather varies depending on what part of the Bay you live in :)
Her birthday was Sunday. :)
It's been up there at the top since Sunday. lol
Even here in NY it's beautiful today, no cold weather this week.

You know what they say, if you don't like the weather in Ky - wait 5 minutes, it'll change - i

nice to see rain and maybe they will release our water restrictions, of course, now I don't need to water my lawn but maybe washing my car would be nice.


How's the weather where U are? Pouring cats & dogs in San Francisco....

   ..... guess it's time to think about building an ARK!  


 


it changed on sunday. my question is does this mean mq has given up
on lowering the line rate for "editing" now that they have given up the "correction" and put everything under transcription and what does "clerical" mean when you go for line count?  also QA and QC.  aren't they both the same?
Most companies are wanting a Sunday through
Thursday schedule, Tuesday through Saturday, so you would still be working 5 days, but would always be working 1 w/e day.  If you just rotate weekends it depends on the company what days you would have off during the week, whether they would dictate the days you took off or you would be able to choose. 
I only saw the first few minutes Sunday night.
It was a repeat. I will try not to give to much away. They were having an affair. She was about to tell him she was pregnant but he told her that they should cool things for awhile, so he doesn't know she is pregnant. Much more happens after this. I don't know if next week's episode is going to be new or not. Let me know if you need more info. I am hooked also.
Just got back from Disney on Sunday
at the Polynesian resort. We stayed there last year. Stayed at Grand Floridian this year (courtesy of in-laws). We had the Disney Dining plan, 1 counter service, 1 table service, and 1 snack per person per day. We found it worked out to be a good deal for us.
Thanks! I was devastated that I missed it Sunday!

I thought about my birth mom on Sunday (nm)

Will U still need Paul McCartney Sunday when he's 64?
Will U still feed him? Grandchildren on his knee - Vera, Chuck & Dave...
11 o'clock p.m. is still Sunday, and third shift
can vary with company, depending on if they are on one coast and you are on another.  I have been offered a 3rd shift job, but can start at 9:00 p.m. based on the time differences in our locations.
