I'm on my own tonight, home alone and working

I think Bucky will go home tonight. I did not like Taylor's performance.
.
I hope either Paris or Elliott go home tonight
I think it will come down between Taylor and Chris. Ultimately, I hope Chris wins it - I LOVE HIM!
My kids have suffered greatly from me working at home with them home. SM
I have been working at home as an MT since my two kids were born. They are now 4 and 5. In the first few years, I had no help whatsoever. Their father was a bum who didnt work or take care of them while I worked. Your children get neglected while you work basically. And babies and young children desperately need your attention while they are home with you.
My kids have so many behavioral problems right now because of their neglect. I would try to set them up with things to occupy themselves, like coloring or a movie, etc.
I finally put them in day care and things have improved, but there are still a lot of issues because of the damage that was done. They still try to seek attention by doing bad things and they dont listen to me because they are so used to me letting them get away with a lot of stuff because I was too busy typing to discipline them in their early years.
If I could do it all over again, I would definitely have put them into day care from the very beginning.
My advice would be to seek PT care for your baby. Maybe you can do some work around her schedule a little when she is home, like when she takes a nap, and then bang out a bunch of work while she is in day care.
I enjoy being alone at home, but I've got one home sick from school already.
One on one with a kid is nice, too.
This summer has been absolutely crazy. I haven't had a moment to myself for three months because all of my kids were home traipsing their friends through the house and yard. My husband switched his work schedule, too, so he's around more than usual. However, I like not having to do two loads of dishes and four loads of laundry a day. There are no toys or clutter dragged out everywhere. I can clean the house first thing in the morning, and it stays clean until everyone gets home at night.
I even got to relax with a cup of coffee and watch TV for half an hour this morning, something I liked for a change instead of cartoons or kids' movies. I signed up for an online class that I've been wanting to take. I can exercise without being interrupted. Yesterday, I went to the mall and spent all my saved up gift cards. I got some clothes, books, bath stuff, and a new coffee mug. My work gets done a lot faster, too. Call me nuts, but I've never had the luxury of being alone in the house for 14 years. It's kinda nice. I love my family with all my heart, but I love having a few hours to myself each week, too.
Except now the cat and dogs have been acting weird since the kids went back to school. They must think that I need someone or something to clean up after and correct behavior on. They're getting into everything and racing around the house behind me.
my take is that she worked inhouse, not at home, and now wants to find out how to work at home. nm

Forget "per line." Your take-home pay should be taking home SM
roughly what it was before. If it is not, is it because your current pay rate for editing (which in many companies keeps changing as the VR system is developed) is too low or is it because your talents and skills are more for speed typing than speed editing?
If the first, discuss it with higherups, and go get a new job if you don't get the response you need. My last MTSO was secretly refiguring how production was counted to pay us less. I can accept hard reality, it was the secrecy that burned. Sometimes, though, it's just that the learning curves of individual editors and that of the system aren't in sync, and you end up temporarily making less.
If the second, though, recognize it as soon as possible and change to straight transcription work, in your company or a new one, for as long as you can find it.
As for why we aren't paid more for a higher skill, that's just the way the labor supply ball bounces. Best wishes.
No, just trying it tonight. sm
Hope it goes okay, I have never tried it. It was on a special about Elvis' favorite foods. I read the reviews and they said the cake was very rich.
I think Ace is gone tonight
Taylor was WONDERFUL last night! I really enjoyed his performance. I was not thrilled with Katherine or Paris. I thought Bucky, Kelly, and Elliot did really well. I did not like Chris' song last night, but not sure if it was just the song I didn't like or the way he did it. So, all in all I would have to say that the bottom three will be Ace, Paris, and Katherine. Ace will be the one leaving in my opinion.
What's for supper tonight? nm

Ladies, what is on for din din tonight?????
beef tenderloin, mushroom gravy, noodles, salad and some fruit. Then, a whole pot coffee while I work.
What's for dinner tonight?
I'm going to make three types of maki-sushi and wontons because I have salmon, shrimp and tun in there to use up. I just love messing with the little bamboo sushi mat. It's so cute! LOL
dinner tonight
With fresh tomatoes and peppers abounding in this area, I have made some salsa and we are having chicken burritos with fresh salsa and fresh peaches. Not much work and lots of good eating.
What's for dinner tonight?
Leftovers here. I am not cooking. I've got homemade cheeseburger pizza, chipotle grilled chicken, biscuits and sausage gravy, tacos, soup, sandwiches and salad that need to be eaten up.
Prayers will be said tonight!
Did you see the news tonight?
Hundreds of children were killed, thousands and thousands have died in total they say. I am the mother of three children and watching those pictures on TV of those little lives lost is very disturbing, extremely saddening, and is a very emotional thing to watch or to try to even understand the magnitude of such losses for everyone involved or to make any sense of it all.
If you, by reading my post, misunderstood my post, I wholeheartedly appologize. It was not my intention to have a "hidden agenda" in my post. It was merely a question.
Dinner tonight
Meat loaf, mashed potatoes and brown gravy, creamed corn, broccoli/cauliflower salad and Kentucky Derby Pie for dessert. I love to cook.

So what's for dinner tonight? SM
I was privileged to be a guest at the first night of Hanukkah last year, and we had latkes and doughnuts, it was all about the oil.
For the life of me I can't remember what we had the second night.
I was in the Bay Area of SF and I'll swear all I did was eat the whole time I was there. And it was all wonderful. My friend is the best cook I've ever seen.
I'm going to go tonight just because of your post.
I certainly could use a few good laughs.
tonight's dinner
Spaghetti with Italian sausages, garlic bread, and nice fresh, big green salad! Jello with fruit for desert.
What's for supper tonight?
Can't decide what to have.
What's for Dinner Tonight?
We are having pasta with steamed veggies and parmesan cheese, salad, garlic bread. Vanilla ice cream with fresh strawberries for dessert. MMMMM
24 was awesome tonight except
I can't believe Tony is dead. What a bummer. First Michelle, then Edgar and now Tony. I wonder who will be next!!!!
So... What's for Dinner Tonight?
what's for dinner tonight?
 sick of cooking same old things
Who do you think will be leaving tonight?
I think Kevin.
Elliot all the way tonight!
Tonight will probably be Paris
Dial Idol has Paris as the lowest with Kellie a close second. For the margin of error, it could be either one of them but since Kellie has Vote for The Worst on her side, I think tonight will be Paris. I was kind of embarassed by Katherine's dress. I was actually working while the show was on, and I looked up while she was singing and thought to myself "put those boobies away," lol. I think she has a good voice, but she is playing the sexy bod card as much as Kellie is playing the dumb blonde card, although Katherine is a much better singer than Kellie. I had tears when Elliott was singing last night. My favorite is always Taylor, although I was disappointed in his song choice last night, and think he could have picked something better to have another magical night like last week. Elliott was the best of the night and might have done better with the judges if he hadn't taken David Foster's advice on the arrangement of the song. I think Chris is okay, but I just can't connect emotionally with him. He's never brought me chills or to tears or made me laugh or smile like Taylor has, or like Elliott did last night. I think the bottom 2 tonight will be Paris and Kellie, with Paris leaving as she just doesn't have the fan base.
Thanks for all the help tonight.! I'm a different Susan

I think Paris tonight.

Tonight's vote...
LET'S ALL MAKE SURE "KAT"ERINE DOES NOT WIN...VOTE FOR TAYLOR...EVEN IFYOU DON'T CARE FOR HIM, STILL VOTE FOR HIM.
I've liked Taylor from the beginning, although as I stated earlier, this whole season has been a bit of a disappointment.
 VOTE FOR TAYLOR!!!
Tonight show
I think Taylor is going to be on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno tonight. I just LOVE him!
What's for dinner tonight?
I'm hungry ! 
We're having that tonight
That sounds so good. I'm off to to grocery store, so I will pick up these things and give 'er a try. Thanks for sharing your recipe. I get so tired of the same things each week, and I use turkey meat in everything now, so this is right up my alley.
Need help with a recipe for tonight
At a friend's church function a couple months ago, someone had made a chicken casserole that had very simple ingredients, but was very good. I could probably throw together what I think was in there but would really prefer to find a recipe for it if possible. It had a cream-based sauce surely from canned cream of ?? soups...cubes of chicken....spaghetti noodles...and a melted shredded cheese and maybe either fine bread crumbs or parmesan topping. Anyone have anything out there close to this? Thanks!
I saw Lou Dobbs tonight.
Senator Dorgan from ND was on. He seems like an upstanding sort of senator! We need more like him.
(Interestingly, I'm a Republican, he's a Democrat, LOL).

Dinner tonight
Lemon-pepper tilapia in butter sauce, summer squash, and sesame-seed bagels.
Any op note MTs out there tonight?(sm)
If so, could you please contact me?? I am having a devil of a time tonight, and have not gotten a whole lot of references for operative reports, as prior to now, I have never really done many of them! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
TIA
I think she means she has wireless TO her home, not IN her home..nm

hospital at-home -vs- national at home
I have an interview today with a hospital...work in-house for 3 months, then go home, paid on production. I don't know as of yet what they pay production, so my question is to anyone who works for a hospital at home AND has also worked for a national at home...
Which would be the best to choose? The hospital offers great benefits, but the national I work for now also has benefits, not as good as the hospital, though. Any input would be most appreciated!
If I stay up and get my work done tonight, then I can take
an extra day off tomorrow. It's going to be warm and sunny all day. Then again, I'm exhausted and bleary eyed. I feel like my behind is molded firmly to the chair.
BUT I could sleep in and have breakfast in bed served by hubby. Take a long bath. Putter in the garden. Read a book on my lounge chair on the deck. Have a picnic at the park. Take a nap. What to do?
LOL It will be interesting to come back tonight (sm)
and see how this all ends up, but the sun is rising and it's time for me to crawl into my coffin in the cellar of the Vampire Bed and Breakfast ;-)
Thanks to all who participated in this silliness; twas entertaining!
What's for dinner tonight girls?
s
I love it! It is on tonight- don't miss it! nm

Dinner tonight ladies?
We are having steak that has been marinading in fresh garlic, olive oil, oregano and diced tomatos all day with cheesy mashed potatos, salad and fruit. Then off to bed early for a trip to Geauga Lake for a day of fun riding roller coasters! Cant wait!
Want to know what's for dinner tonight girls
I am making that 20-garlic recipe from below with mashed taters and salad and some homemade bread. Yum.
Honestly, all I want to do is eat leftovers and veg out tonight.
However, we had contractors here working on our house all weekend. They're good friends and did us a favor, so we're feeding them all after they finish up tonight.
Hmmm, what IS for dinner tonight?
So what's for dinner tonight? I need suggestions.
I have melons cut up and an Italian pasta salad. What to go with it?
