Thanks for posting an update. I did wonder what the outcome had been and hoped you were doing better.
I hope the other stone doesn't present a problem if/when it passes. It sounds like it's small enough that it may not be too much trouble. Keep some drugs on hand, just in case!
Glad you're back.

Glad to hear it. If he's still having too many,
don't give up on him. There are other drugs, though phenobarb is a good one that they always try first.
Glad to hear you say that,
I saw the female being interviewed but people just the gun in saying racist when it happens here. More people leaving the north and heading south that Atlanta is probably the fastest growing city there is and the blacks are in the majority. The police was deathly ill, vomiting and had to go to the hospital - if you can tell me how being sickened by a hamburger got to being racist, please??
Glad to hear it sm
Three nice stories, so happy to hear something positive. I do keep my distance and try to keep my mouth shut and help when asked, do not jump in or go over without calling, etc. and mostly when invited only and I don't overstay. I only want what is best for my son and know if he's happy, I'm happy. I think those of us who have lived longer and know better, get the drill. I can't stand the way we MIL's are portrayed, I really have not seen one movie, TV show or article with something positive, it's like the old "wicked step mother" theme that sold books and movies for years. So happy to know there are some good MIL stories out there. It makes me feel better. Sometimes I just wonder whether I'm doing okay in that department or not, it's difficult, I wish they'd show both sides but they don't. Thanks for the positive input, I feel better. Sometimes we need a younger spin on things, times do change and I want to stay in my place and do the right thing without being a pain. I also do not want to be neglectful of their needs. I usually call and ask if they'd like a night out, because I know how important it is for a happy marriage. They usually jump at the chance. Guys don't talk about these things and I would never ask anyway if I'm doing okay as a MIL. It's a tough job to keep your nose clean. More, more - good news! Be happy, perhaps we can put a more positive spin on relationships.
Okay, glad to hear you have got it
all covered! Good luck at your new place. 
Glad to hear that....
Are you an MTSO or QA? It's so difficult for MTs these days, Annie, so please bear with us.
We're told not to change anything, type what was dictated, even when it goes against every fiber of our being to let some of this stuff go. I have an ongoing internal struggle to not clean up every iota of poor grammar in a report. With ESLs, we may THINK we know what they meant to say, but we don't know that as a fact so we have to suck it up and leave it go as dictated.
I'm glad the MT in question wasn't zapped on the 'transferred' versus 'transfused.' As I said earlier, sounds like the clinician could very well be ESL, and I would not have tampered with it, either (and I've been doing this 22 years).
I hope she does rectify her other problems, for her sake and your sake :-)
Glad to hear it!
Blood clots can be serious, but now that they know what they're dealing with they can treat it. (My mother has similar problems and takes a rather large dose of Coumadin. She jokes that her blood is like motor oil. My dad, on the other hand, bleeds rather easily so I don't know what side of the fence I'll land on!)
I think you should talk to your doctor about your concerns about the birth control pills.
Glad to hear it worked! nm

I'm so glad to hear it. I knew you had it in ya'!
That is so great!!! Glad to hear!! nm

Glad to hear from another nonprude!
I enjoyed your posting, thanks for joining in.
Glad to hear from all the lonely sm
I am older and find that after years of holding back on personal information re. all in the community, I had to be careful about what I said or asking someone how they were, as I wasn't supposed to know they had cancer, etc. This further alienated me from some people I would purposely avoid getting into a conversation with. At any rate the "jealousy" factor also came into play from those not bright enough to "work" and the only thing they had to do was the annual bazaar, etc., which is fine but if I arrived on the scene and offered to help, I was actually ostracized as not being "one of the girls." I gave up on it all, don't even go to church anymore. I miss it because I believe in mind, body and spirit. Somehow the only spirituality and happiness I find are within my own home with beautiful CD's and private prayer, etc., I don't even want to try to get close to these "beaches." No one understands what we do, if I say "medical transcription" they say, "WHAT?" They don't have a clue. Glad I'm not alone. I was actually told, "Well, my house is a 'home' and I am a homemaker. I did both and my kids are healthy, happy and do very well despite the fact that their mom was a "working" mom. Geez, Louise! I also got told, "Oh, you work, so you can just bring soda and chips." I also bake, cook and sew!
Oh I am so glad to hear there is a shelter...sm
that does give pits a chance. I love em. I love all dogs.
So glad to hear that! They are scary to watch! nm
nm
So glad to hear Shasha is a rescue....
i have a special place in my heart and life for rescues and feel the need to speak out on their behalf. if dh passed by them all, then this must be the dog for your family.
good luck with whomever you choose...your dogs are very lucky to be part of your household. 
I'm glad to hear your surgery went well. I had a vaginal...
hysterectomy about 3 years ago and I think it took about 6 months before the hot flashes started. Best of luck to you.
Glad to hear the good news -sm
Thanks for the update. That is good news! You have eased my mind about having it done, and I hope to do it real real soon. I know I've put it off long enough. Your messages have been so encouraging and much appreciated. I'll keep watching in case you post any more good news. ;-)
Glad to hear you finally got your money. Please also...sm
post a message on Clark Howard's website under Bad Customer Service as well as file a negative report against them with the Better Business Bureau if they're a member with them. The latter rarely does anything but at least you can file a complaint and let them know that these folks were scoundrels.
Glad to hear you're okay Hayseed
and hanging in there...Missed your wit and smiling face around here!
Glad to hear the good news! Now.......

Glad to hear everything turned out okay for your furkid. nm

Glad to hear that it was not a spider bite. I was concerned

Glad to hear your tests turned out good..
I wonder if some people are more susceptible to cysts than others? Have you had anymore cysts?
I have one on my head (hidden under hair), a lipoma on my forearm (need to get it x-rayed though as it has been driving me crazy lately) and an ovarian cyst (My GYN left it in place just in case it was helping the pregnancy). I found out about the ovarian cyst when I was pregnant for my twins. They were actually triplets at first (with one growing in the tube) so at 6 weeks, we had to have surgery. I was heartbroken to lose a baby but feel so blessed and lucky that the other 2 made it and have done well since. They are now 2 strong, active little boys and were 1 day from being full-term :)
glad to hear this; t.v. hosts/reporters are ignorant; I would have told her so, on natl t.v.

Agreed! Hear, hear...amen, sister!

The worst one yet (sm)
DS first grade teacher, teaching them the difference between their, there, and they're. Had them copy sentences off the board, something about daffodils, and it said, "they're little petticoats in the breeze" or something like that. I called her on it, and she was nasty to DS the whole rest of the year (not kidding).
That's not the worst
She told me that she knew I had been trying to have an affair with her husband (yuk and ewww! - oh is that anything like shock and aww. Ha Ha), She said she knew what my game was etc, etc., oh yes...and I should go back to my home state where "my kind" belongs. All the meantime with her finger pointed in my face. She is much larger and stronger than I am and I was too shocked beyond words to comprehend what was happening. She also stood leaning against the door so I had no way out. It was a nightmare. It took me 4 months before I stepped foot in her place again or said a word to her. Slowly we became on good speaking terms. Never did trust her after that. Now we get along okay. I eventually forgave her (she was having her problems), but I wish someone had spoken up on my behalf. I did learn at that time that blood is thicker than marriage (unless you are lucky to have a partner that loves you so much they would do anything to keep you from being hurt). Anyway...I have moved on and don't think about it as often but there are still some times when it is in my mind and it does hurt, but gotta move on.
my worst was 25
Absolute worst was my 25th...my stepmom died from an aortic aneurysm. She had just gone up to change clothes for dinner and we found her dead within 5 minutes. I think dinner stayed in the oven for 3 days afterward and I have never eaten stuffed shells again. I haven't liked birthdays since. As my dad said at the hospital, Happy F-ing Birthday, and he was not one to curse.
But, a better one was for me was 29 as I got a belly button piercing in memory of my cousin and met my DH on that birthday. Now I just try to ignore them, though 40 is rapidly approaching and I find myself feeling stuck in a rut...work to pay the bills and for gas, eat, sleep, and do it all again the next day. I wish I could go back to 21 and do it all over again!!
Worst best man ever?

Worst job..(sm)
Sonic rollerskater girl. I just didn't know how to rollerskate. There were a few accidents...LOL.
Churches are the worst.
I have more people trying to convert me to whatever they are come by my house uninvited than I do people I know. Now I open the door, tell them I'm happy where I am, I'm happy for them that they are happy where they are and that I'm working and can't be disturbed. Then I shut the door. I actually don't go to church anymore. Pretty disgusted with the whole idea really lol.
In your case, I wouldn't let them in. I think they are being extremely rude to you.
Worst one I have ever endured was...sm
At a psychiatric facility - a dictator actually dictated in the bathroom stall while having a bowel movement... actually grunted and laughed into the dictation equipment (hand-held obviously), and then finished his "big job" and then flushed on tape. I complained to the MedRec Dept head, she approached him about it, and we actually referred to him as "the Royal Flush" after that when we got his dictation...Needless to say, we didn't enjoy his transcription or his surprises. He's a big psychiatric research guy here now. Sheesh. ICK indeed. What are they thinking?!!
WHAT?! Some of the worst criminals...
at least money-wise, as in stealing church money and money from little old ladies, are the big time evangelists on TV!! Do you think these people have "lack of God"?? I personally think it's lack of values/morals in this country (and other countries of course) that cause people to commit crimes, and of course lack of conscious! It has absolutely nothing to do with lack of God! I can't count how many times I've seen news reports where people commit a crime and everyone that knew them said what a great person they are and how shocked they were that they committed the crime - plus, a lot of these people go to church and actually believe in God and it still doesn't phase them to commit the crimes. I don't know, maybe it's because they believe in God that makes them think God will save them or forgive them, so it's okay to commit the crimes?? I'm not an atheist, I just live in the same town at Pat Roberts and where that whole network of his is located and I'm sick of these people living like kings with their multi-milliion dollar homes, helicopters, vacation homes, etc., while there are people in our country that are homeless, without insurance, and starving - I'm sorry but I don't think this is the Christian way to behave and I'm sick of people saying that God is the answer to everything! I really don't think this has anything to do with why these people commit crimes.
What's the worst that can happen; you buy a new one?
I have heard people clean them by running them under the shower and letting them dry in the warm outside air. I'm going to try it, I have a backup cheapie to use if it gets ruined and I have to buy a new one.
My worst Thanksgiving
I remember the date well. It was Thanksgiving of 1978. I had made the Thanksgiving meal and had invited friends. We were living in Wisconsin away from family. Well, some friends and I were putting the last minute touches on the meal, when I heard my dog going crazy outside. I opened the door and in she came, smelling horribly of SKUNK! Needless to say no one could eat anything, as the house just "STUNK OF SKUNK". 
We did the worst Thanksgivings - how about the best?
My best one was 15 years ago. My daughter was born the night before Thanksgiving and we were ready to go home on Thanksgiving day.
My parents were having dinner at their house and a ton of extended family over who were all excited to see the new baby. We went over there (yes, before I had even gone home yet) for a couple of hours.
My husband's parents were also having a big family gathering at their place, which was closer to our house. They all wanted to see the new baby too so we went over there for a few hours too.
I was exhausted but it was still fun. Mom and baby were discharged from the hospital at 10 a.m. and didn't make it home until around 10 p.m. that night. The other kids were tired so they let mom and baby go right to bed without a fuss and dad went back to his folks for the holiday family poker match.
No one can be a worst cook than me
My husband asks me to stay out of the kitchen as he says, he and I both want to stay healthy! Ok, I do have a previous thingy I just made up, call it Spanish porkchops. How simple is this - I put a family size container of pork chops plus 2 cans of canned tomatos plus 2 large onions all together and cook over medium until the chops are done and tender- oh, I forgot the salt and pepper- but anyway that is something even I can do and I love it but then again I love tomatoes and we eat them all the time.
what is the worst song ever?
This was on our local news this morning.
My first thought was "Help me Rhonda" by the Beach Boys. Seasons of the sun is right up there for me also.
What's your 'worst song ever'?
worst song?
I have always hated "You light up my life". That was so popular years ago they played it constantly. To this day I want scream when I hear it.
worst thing ever huh? (okay almost)
I'm sorry I don't have suggestions because mine was due to my severe sinusitis as well as the prednisone I was on. You would never think that losing your taste would matter... but having to eat food, just to eat it and taste NOTHING... I tell you what, i dont take the small things for granted anymore :) (of course there were things i was happy not to taste and/or smell... nasal spray was one of them, because i knew my senses were back after using that one day and gagging!!!)
hope you get better soon!!
my worst fear right now is that even
if I have cash in my hand, it will be worthless, and might as well use it as TP.
worst = medquist
they suck
That's not the worst part. nm

this is actually the worst, I quote:
'.......Aren't boomer women great? They know how to solve a man's mid-life crisis without even breaking a sweat!'
This is so ridiculing and portraying the woman as cold and materialistic.
That's why we automatically think the worst
Everyone remembers the exceptions, rather than the vast majority whose ailments turn out to be minor.
In any case, there's no point in worrying until you're sure there's something to worry about.
Do You Hear What I Hear and Little Drummer Boy
I love the holiday!
Hear, hear! I'm with you too, same boat. -nm

Did not hear about the porn but did hear
there might be a conflict about her babies going home with her when they were able to be dismissed. You can hardly blame anyone for questioning how she will take care of them. From what I have seen, she hardly seems stable enough to do that.
I'm so sad right now. I am thinking the worst. it was reported that she sm
had paramedics on top of her giving CPR.
If this is true and she has met her demise, I think it was a combination of a heart ache and drugs to cope with her great loss. As much as people didn't like her, she is a mother who truly loved her son. I have 3 and can't imagine if one of them passed like that.
The worst for me are spitting in public,
it makes me almost lose it and then smacking gum so loud every time your jaw opens and closes, so loud and do not even try to eat at my table and suck, slurp and go on, you gotta go!
Worst Round -- I agree.
I think I am still in shock. What in the world are people thinking??? The last person to make it through to the final 12 is the very one I thought should have been voted off during the first round of elimination. Cannot stand that one -- he should have been gone a long, long time ago. Ugh.
Oh and hospitals are some of the worst places for it! (sm)
Maybe it is rampant everywhere, but let me just say, people who work all night together in a place where there are beds....
