Are you thin??

 Don't know about you but I'm pretty thin and can't even sit anywhere for any period of time unless it is well padded as I have no padding of my own.
I LOVE the older chairs, BEFORE OSHA; the kinds with just the four prongs from the base. They just seem to fit better. Of course most of them don't have much if any padding at all; I just get a pillow that feels good "underneath" and then replace the pillow as needed instead of the chair!! Try one. Mine is from the 1940's, solid oak with leather and wicker seat and solid brass hardware to raise and lower the chair as needed; swivels great. What more could a person want???

Yes - another thin one here - & it's miserable ! .
I have the usual, mid-priced, office chair from Office Depot with the thickest padding I could find within my price range. Felt okay for about a month then, like you, I had to sit on a pillow! My tailbone just felt like I was sitting on bare metal otherwise. Pillows are cheaper than chairs - so that, too, is what I do! I also added a lumbar support attached with Velcro, but normally when transcribing sit more foreword in my chair in order to reach my footpedal & don't get it's benefit (only when not working). I'm not only thin-I'm short in comparison to today's standards - I'm 5'1". What about you?
If you are so extremely thin and beautiful,
then why are you on this site. Are you a transcriptionist. If you are as beautiful and thin as you say you are, I doubt very seriously that you'd be typing for a living.
Thankfully I'm not thin-skinned.

My understanding was that she didn't want to search blindly for schools, and I think it's convenient how there are links right here to some of the best schools, because their websites give you an EXCELLENT idea of their courses. When anybody asks me about schools, that's all I give them, the web addresses, because I think they are self-explanatory. I have no idea if the OP ever noticed those links were there, and I doubt you knew (if he/she did), either!
Just peel and slice the potatoes thin and
then deep fry them. Really simple. Season after with salt or Lawry's season salt. Yum!
I agree and should go to med school to thin the herd...
Thankfully, most of the residents I have transcribed for do an excellent job. Maybe the time will come for the lazy ones to retire!
Right on! Now change your sign on from "never going to be thin" to
 something more positive, like "on my way to better health" or something
couldn't stand STAR as a thin woman...don't

Is it possible that the stove was new and the thin layer of protective plastic was left on it?

I use regular thin winter gloves and cut the fingertips off. Works great! nm
:)
For arthritis/cold weather, I use cheap, thin, one-size-fits-all
grocery-store gloves, and just cut the fingertips out. Warm & comfy. And cheap.
I actually wear gloves, regular knit, but thin gloves.
I get so used to typing with them on, when I take them off I have a hard time adjusting again.
