Thanks so much for the laugh ~ I needed it today! (nm)
Oh Dillie, thanks for the laugh! I needed that!...,nm
//
Thank you so much for making me laugh out loud. I really needed it right now...
Usually I just have coffee. Sometimes I'll have oatmeal. Today, DH is cooking again!
We're having breakfast "hash" with scrambled eggs, ham, hash browns, cheese, tomatoes, onions, jalapenos, and red pepper in one skillet. Whole wheat toast and chipotle Tabasco.
Needed this big-time today...thank you! :)
Too funny!!! Needed this today...thanks :) nm
I searched by patient name today as I needed
to find a medication that the patient was on. So I searched patient name and pulled up the H&P for the visit to check what medications had been listed on admission to help me figure it out. Great feature.

Got the same computer for like $400 less and they'll ship it out tomorrow. Should be here in 4 days..Same everything including warranty. Try Ebay.!!!

OMG!!! Why do MT's come here and spew every 5 minutes?????
Go to work. Or something.
Coffee just always smells so darn good, doesn't it? I drink 3 cups of coffee... sm
in the morning (used to be 4) w/Nutrasweet, a little regular powdered creamer and a little liquid French Vanilla creamer (yes, I do like it sweet!) If I'm really sleepy and need the boost, I'll have another cup or two.
Then I immediately start drinking diet Dr. Pepper, and not the caffeine-free kind. Love it. I drink diet Dr. Pepper throughout the day and night, about 6 cans a day (it used to be diet Coke). I've joked with my friends and family that it might be time for them to hold an intervention for me with the Dr. P.
I do sometimes worry about the mass quantity of Nutrasweet I consume each day. Anybody else?
POTS of coffee? Wow...I have 2-3 cups of half-caff coffee with just milk each day. Any more and I

HELP with Shorthand. Suddenly today when I tried to start work today.sm
my ShortHand would type only the first letter of an expansion and then take all the letters away! I checked and the Type It button is grayed out! I have restarted the computer and looked on the Shorthand Help menu but can find nothing that applies. Can anyone please help me ASAP? I am lost without it! TIA
Perhaps you are right. This one is dated today. The original article was on Yahoo today also with
But this article states it would only affect new customers right now. So I am upset over nothing. I went through heck with BellSouth when they charged me a surcharge of an extra 50 a month and then would write a letter saying I had to switch to a long distance service and pay by the minute because of my "excessive" use. They told me the unlimited charge was for an average of an hour a day not somebody who worked out of their home and I needed to switch a business plan at over 200 a month charge. I switched over to cable because of that and then to read that cable was going to charging on a per use fee and not a flat monthly fee it upset me. It is the nature of our work, VR, only paying for VBC, having headers and footers taken away, now being charged for being on line, etc. It just seems that everything is done to keep to insure less money.
Hey, that is me too. Nothing like a cig with your coffee :-)
coffee
Usually 3 to 4 large cups in the morning and 2 to 3 cups of tea in the afternoon. I couldn't live with my morning coffee ! 
Look for, not look like for...coffee!!!
best coffee
Whole bean and grind it yourself. It blows away the stuff in the can already ground.
I buy what is on sale, because it all tastes good when you grind it yourself. But I prefer 8 O'Clock Coffee, which may or may not be available in your area.
Whole bean all the way.
Blasted cold out today. It was 104 degrees last week, but it's 40 degrees today with rain.
However, I do like cozy days like today when I don't have to go anywhere. I'm done working, the house is clean, there's chili on the stove for dinner already, and I'm just putzing around. I think I'll go bake some jalapeno cheese bread to go with the chili.
how about the coffee creamer one? sm
Where the woman is watering her grass and then sprays the paperboy when he rides by! That's how I feel sometimes before my coffee! 
One CUP of coffee? Why would you deny yourself that? nm

Three Tylenol and coffee (sm)
 of course, a massage never hurts!! Feel better!
You are right ! I need coffee. tanks
Yes along with drinking my pot of coffee! nm

Coffee and a big cup of ice water so far...nm

Are they coffee drinkers?
I love coffee and would love to receive some Starbucks flavored coffee beans and cappuccino (sp) mixes, some Mrs. Fields cookies, muffins, a couple of pretty coffe mugs, a good book, throw them in a basket and voila!
Oh my goodness! That's a lot of coffee.
I recently cut my coffee intake from three large cups a day to, most days, none. For me, the big reason is that I sugar/cream it to death, and thought I might lose a few pounds. I also do not think that my brain works right when I've had that much coffee.
Trying to move to green tea sweetened with honey, and not three large cups. (LOL)
I think I actually keep my weight down with coffee..
I use the artificial sweeteners and fat free flavored creamers or half and half. And caffeine can suppress the appetite which works for me ;)
Okay..... what KIND of coffee??
I think Duncan Donuts is the BEST!! :o) Although I buy their ground coffee and brew it myself...... Much cheaper that way.
About drinking coffee....
I gave up caffeine a few years ago. I used to drink 8 to 10 LARGE mugs of coffee a day but gave it up.
The bad part about being caffeine free was waking up in the morning and thinking "This is as good as I am going to feel all day long."
But....I got used to it.
lol need coffee.....like not kike
cannot spell today. Good thing I am not working today.
Got fresh coffee, come here or sm
play games on yahoo! games.
I almost spit out my coffee on your
last sentence! However, I am not certified. Back in '70 if you could pass an English spelling test, you got the job and hard knocks was the teacher. When this whole AAMT started, the hospital really did not want us taking off for this stuff, made it clear there would be no increased monetary benefit, so we just never did. We never had a CMT in there until about 7 or 8 years ago, boy was she an eye-opener, we were totally out of the loop in a lot of different areas. We had never heard of abbreviation expanders. Catchup is a devil. And a lot of comments from all different areas of the country are almost identical - "all you do is sit there and type" is probably #1. A retired botanist once told me, "you're a transcriptionist? where have you been all my life?" These are so few and far inbetween that I remember all three of them!
Coffee/AutoText
Hello to all my MTs out there! I would like to know, how could I use my auto text to the best of my ability? What I am saying is that, whenever I try to look at what is important to add to increase my production, I don't seem to know what to add. Everything from words to phrases, that I add, is still not enough, and I don't see an increase in my production at all. I need tips and advice from pros and vets who has been there and done that. I appreciate any help really. The platform that I am using is EMDAT. Also, what is the best tasting coffee that I could buy or one that taste the best? I love chocolate. I am open for all suggestions. Thanks.
coffee preference
I found Folgers Black Silk a nicer, richer flavor with using lesser amount. husband is happy still (he drank coffee-flavored mud for years). I would reduce the amount I put in the pot a little at a time until I reduced 4 spoons of grounds to 4 cups of coffee (small pot) down to 2 spoons of grounds. He used to call it "sissy coffee" but he says it does taste better when I make the coffee. Go figure...
Kids gone, just the coffee. :) NM

coffee motivation
ok I feel sooo unmotivated to work even when I am right in front of my computer. I am just off task, thinking about other things. I lack the focus and brain energy to type. When I drink strong coffee or energy drinks, I am super productive. I enjoy typing and get lots done when I have been using caffeine. What is going on here?
No coffee yet this morning. You said it was on the server.
On the one hand, if it's on the server and not on your computer, perhaps your supervisor only has it installed to make sure nobody is hacking the system. Maybe your supervisor doesn't even know it's there, but I doubt that. I'd want to be sure it didn't get on my computer, but you sound savvy since you're already running anti-spyware software. How would I feel knowing my supervisor was spying on me? Well, I have nothing to hide. I would never do anything I shouldn't be doing on her server. Then again, I'm not some infant hacker that needs to be monitored. (I'm not a hacker at all, for that matter! LOL Oy....Where's the java?) Most of my former employers used to monitor what we did with our computers with regard to email and the Internet. I have nothing to hide, but if they can't trust me, they can bite me.
ahh I thought she was asking how many lines she would get. lol I think i need coffee
lol
Aside from coffee and sleeping, how do you keep yourself awake?
I'm so very, very tired and sleep deprived this week from everything that's going on. My eyelids keep drooping and I can't get motivated, but I have to get this work done. I know if I try a little catnap, I'll be out like a light for the rest of the day. Any tips?
Oops! Need more coffee...."their" name...nm

coffee and potatoe chips...
cant seem to break the habit...
Yes - actually couldn't lift a cup of coffee - that arm
wrist motion caused agonizing pain. Ended up being tendons going to my elbow. Got 2 steroid injections about 2 months apart and healed miraculously. Pain free for nearly 2 years now, and would never let myself suffer like that again. It was completely work related  - condition of the industry, I guess. I lean my hands differently when typing, so didn't get carpal tunnel - just strained different tendons! Good luck to you!
OMG, almost spewed coffee on screen.LOL-nm

that should be "your" emotion. No coffee yet!

Coffee is illegal in Utah? sm
What gives? Gosh, I would move today if I had to drink coffee illegally.
Depends - 1 cup of my sister's coffee
a week usually, then just drink water rest of the week and jump up and down. Her coffee is so strong it is concentrated.
Otherwise 3 cups a day.
I wear my pj's until my coffee break
I am up and working by 6:00 am and I usually get up at 5:30, have a little snack and watch the news. I literally roll out of bed and downstairs to my office. So I work in my p.j.s for the first two hours. I wear flannel sleep pants and t-shirts/sweat shirts. At 8:00, I take a coffee break that includes my morning shower. That's also after my hubby and teenagers have left for various school/workplaces. For the rest of the day, I usually wear workout clothes, because when I'm done at 2:00 or 3:00, I head straight for the Y. Now in the summer... well, lots of days I'm in my bathing suit and shorts, and I take quick breaks in the pool to cool down. (We don't have a/c and it can be pretty hot here.) I consider wearing whatever I please to be a perk of WAH.
well wake up and smell the coffee...
Ever since managed care came into being here, the doctors have been moaning and groaning...and less and less folks are actually entering the medical field today.....becauise nobody is earning the money they were 15-20 plus years ago.....There is a huge shortage of nurses also in this country - it's not profitable enough for anyone today...not like it used to be prior to managed care.....
I have been treated overseas and it IS better.....and I recently read an article that folks here, the elderly, are now relocating to India for long-term care at home....it's nearly free over there....if I ever find that article, I will repost here.....the couple the article was about are in their 80s and they get all their rxs, aides in the home (home health care), and treatment for a miniscule amount compared to here......the article showed pictures too.....all nice and clean and very efficient looking. Plus, an added benefit is they are just more respectful of the elderly overseas.....in general and everywhere.....whether it be Europe or Asia.....while here, all they seem to be interested in in this country is YOUTH - a youth-oriented society it has been for a couple of generations now.
You *think* we have the best......but it might not always be as it seems and think of *down the road* - while less folks are entering the field(s) here - you'll find there will be less and less *the best*.....
