I am a smoker! I agree with the alcohol. I use rubbing alcohol every day on my equipment. sm
I smoke, bad habit I know, but I can't stand the smell either.
What's up with the alcohol?
What's up with the parents thinking it is okay for their kids to not only drink, but get plain drunk? I see this everywhere I look--scary. My neighbor's son just turned 17 and is smoking and drinking and his mom is like, oh well. The other night as he was leaving with some friends she yelled, make sure you get a DD (designated driver). Now isn't she a responsible mom? Crazy if you ask me. She'll be the one crying when something happens. Hmph.
But you might want to have some alcohol
to wash out some of the toxins from the coffee and diet soda! Red wine has flavinoids, which are an antioxidant! LOL!
Here's the deal. If someone is a Christian,
and they have been saved, the will go to heaven no matter what. Just read John 3:16. That is all there is to it, simple as that. You don't think that Jesus would have made it complicated, do you? If He had, we would all be going to hell.
(Mark Twain said he didn't want to go to heaven because he didn't like harp music.)

Christian too; he will change perhaps...sm
in the next life, perhaps in the next transition...but for you to think he's going to change in this life 30 years later.....I think you're dreaming, just my opinion, not etched in stone.
Also, I believe religion has nothing to do with this topic of decades-old substance abusers! I think when having discussions such as these - we all need to leave our religions out of it (for at LEAST 10 minutes) ....because again, I think we/some tend to reach for our crutches (religions, if fanatics and cannot hold a regular old conversation for 10-20 minutes, such as how my ex became).
Please don't think that I'm sitting here with my hands all neat, pretty, tidy/clean regarding these many issues in any of these many areas, either in my former family (mom/sister/dad, etc.) or the marriage that I dumped, but today I'm a different person, have learned MUCH about people and their behavior(s) and men, in particular.
You're going to do what you want to do - just whatever you do - advise making real sure your eyes and head are being completely open minded about the issue(s).
Good luck to you, it sounds like you have made your choices. Be well. Happy July 4th! 
How do you know they said a Christian prayer?
It is very possible that both the patient and physician are Muslims. You are only assuming it was Christian prayer and getting your panties in a knot based on that assumption.
Christian prayer
I know because I know the docs personally. I am a paramedic and have also worked as a nurse in several docs offices.
alcohol was illegal once too
Alcohol was illegal at one time too..Marijuana should be legalized, there is no reason not to legalize it. It will be legalized one day soon, Im sure. It is less harmful than alcohol.
50/50 alcohol/vinegar
Works for me!
LOL There is alcohol involved in that
message. Lucky girl.
I agree about the Christian stuff
I dont know if that was necessarily why she got booted last night, but it was very obvious that LAST WEEK when she did sing the Christian song, that the judges just didnt get it. I was so proud of her for showing her faith to the world and not worrying about it being "popular" or not.
John 3:21
I'm not a dreamer. I'm simply a Christian
woman praying for her husband and believing that he will be changed.
What does being a Christian have to do with Halloween? see message
Your Halloween Party sounds fun!!! I was thinking about doing one for my 6-year-old, having the kids dress up.
But I do have to ask, just because you are a Christian does not mean you can't celebrate Halloween. In fact, you ARE celebrating "Halloween", just on a different day. I understand the meaning of Halloween isn't the best, however, that is the day that is set aside and Halloween has been totally commercialized anyway, so it is not like I am sitting at home worshiping un-Christian like things or trying to be a witch. Do you see what I mean? I am not trying to be mean, I too am a Christian, but we do take the kids out on Halloween.
You know, good question. I really don't know. I have been a Christian for sm
10 years. Before that, I LOVED Halloween and would go trick or treating right along there with all the devils and everything! j/k Then, met my husband who has been a Christian all his life, attended Baptist churches, and he told me that they just don't celebrate it at all. Couldn't give me a clear-cut reason why...so, we get married and for 4 years (before we had kids) we didn't participate in Halloween. I would get so mad at him because he would get mad at me for spending 20.00 on Halloween candy and then he wouldn't let me pass it out! He'd turn the outside lights off, but if the kids came anyway he'd let me pass out candy. Then we had kids and for a few years he still wouldn't let me celebrate. It wasn't until his sister 3 years ago invited us trick or treating (and he didn't want my kids to dress up!). But, they had minimal costumes on and they were in absolute AWE of Halloween. The lights, the CANDY, the trick or treating.
Fast forward to today. He's "okay" with it, but still clearly uncomfortable. You don't understand, I have been absolutely mesmerized by the whole "Martha Stewart," "Katie Brown" entertaining thing since my late teens, early 20s. Obesessed. My first year of marriage, my husband was at work and I watched the very first Martha Stewart when she went and decorated the White House (an evening special). I cried during the whole thing. I thought everything she did was absolutely breathtaking. I LOVED her creativity, the colors, everything. I swore that I would have "that kind of life some day." I wanted it ALL. The cheesy cupcakes, the Pottery Barn decor, all of it. I learned to cross stitch, woodwork, paint, stencil, flower arrange, you name it, I can pretty much do it. I can lay tile. That's one I haven't gotten down yet.
So, now that you my entire sad life story, you know where all of this partying comes from. I can linger for HOURS over Southern Living magazines, Southern Living At Home magazines. My home pretty much shows it. I have good taste, but that's inbred in me.
A designer once told me that I was a Tuscany, French-Country person....WHATEVER! Just give me some hot chocolate, 5 Southern Living magazines, and a babysitter, and I could die right there.
So, my motto: JUST PARTY WITH A PURPOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Witch
I'm a Christian, I don't celebrate Halloween but
I do have a harvest carnival for my friends kids. They love it and every year it's bigger than the year before.
Halloween has Christian origin. Please sm

Christian chat room
Is there any christian chat rooms for medical transcriptionists? I thought I saw one about a month ago and now I cannot remember the name of it.
Thanks, I hope something comes up / Christian Troy?
Just Google his name (Julian McMahon) and a lot of sites come up. I have a lot of pics of him saved on my computer. My secret obsession. LOL.
oh yeah, tolerate everything except what is Christian
FYI, before my last major surgery, i asked my surgeon if he was a praying man. I am sure you are clueless as to the why -- but for those who DO believe in the Almighty, the why is well understood. and why pray tell (pun intended) are you looking for a RULE ???? How about a rule to tolerate Christianity the way we are asked to tolerate every other belief system?
rubbing alcohol.......inside and out...nm
oh ok - and legalized alcohol drinking....N/M

Help on word board please -- alcohol KZP? -nm

Milk, Cream and Alcohol...
Oh, that's too funny with the doc prescribing a cycle of beer! There's an old blues song with the lyrics "Your doctor put you on milk, cream and alcohol." Maybe it's the same doc!
Don't you feel guilty for being a white Christian?
Geez, you're responsible for everything that's wrong with this country - don't you know that?
That's what the sentiment in this country is anyway. You're only allowed to diss someone's culture, language, religion, etc. if they are of European Caucasian origin.
We have nothing to feel guilty about. If other cultures are jealous or resentful of us, that's their issue to deal with. We had nothing to do with their feelings of inadequacy for whatever reason they may have them.
I'm sick of having to coddle minorities who clearly hate us anyway.
So condescending and so insulting.
Private Christian school is where my kids go.

Windex or rubbing alcohol on glass :)
I use an alcohol prep pad to clean the dirt off &
the corner of the packet it comes in I slide between the keys all around and I get these big dust bunnies that I just pull out with my fingers. I also turn it upside down and shake it once in a while too.
clean the heads with an alcohol prep, if
you have one, or take out the ink jet cartridge and using a gentle wrist motion, turn it up and down a few times and replace.
THANK YOU. It is becoming increasingly hard these days to be a Christian with this idea of
every religion is okay and we can all be one attitude. They make us sound like just because we believe the truth and say there is only one God and one way to Heaven (Jesus) that we are judgmental, prejudice and closed-minded to diversity.
Rosa Parks was also a God fearing Christian woman!

cover with thiamine and (s/l) serafellon for alcohol abuse
Got no help on word board. Running out of time.
Thanks in advance
Once a week, I clean my headset ears with alcohol.
Then swab out my ears after showering with Q-tips with alcohol on them. Keeps the itching down to nothing, and the ear wax doesn't build up that way, either.
except I love cooking w/alcohol/wine in sauces!!

Similar problem-rubbing alcohol mark..nm/TIA!
It is that "reborn Christian" thing where they go overboard and make new rules LOL
Im Wiccan...I love this season and there is always a festival in our home at every season celebrating nature!!
Absolutely no alcohol. Coffee, water or diet soda.

I keep alcohol pads at my desk to clean the sponges on the earphones.
That takes away the itching and keeps the bacteria away!!
Clear as a bell, ptosis? He has a history of ptosis from alcohol poisoning
