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.
At least you have beautiful weather most of the year. nm

And with this awful bitter cold weather
going ballistic on the drivers when they do return!
Yep, we live in cold climate too. Getting outdoors is a MUST in good weather.

COLD, 40s, where are you. BEAUTIFUL here in NY.

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.
We have such gorgeous weather here today, Easter Sunday!
What about where you are?!
Beautiful out today...
Hey RadGuy, hopefully you are out somewhere enjoying the beautiful day here in Lexington. I just got home from going out with me, myself, and I to Johnny Carino's (Hamburg Place) for a wonderful lunch. Then I went to Value City Furniture and spent an hour looking around. I started to go to Office Depot, but I have this thing about computer desks and decided I had better just come on home !! 
oh yuck, I have to travel to NY next week for a hospital job - now I'm going to be cold!!

He was just arrested last week and it was in today's
paper, so he isn't on the sex Offender Registry yet. He lives right next door, at my kids' bus stop. My son gets so embarrassed that I stand at the bus stop and wait for him even though it's right next door (he says that no one else's mom does that), but now I'm really glad that I do stand there and wait. I know I do my part looking after my children, but what does it say about our government when someone admits to child molestation and is let out on $500 bail? Innocent until proven guilty is one thing, but this guy admitted it.
Been interviewing for jobs this week, today a company
confirmed what we have been saying all along, they send the good dictation overseas and leave the crap for us.
Leftovers always - plan it this way during the week - today it's leftover spaghetti

My employer took all MTs out to lunch today in recognition of National MT Week and we got a new
Drake & Drake Pharmaceutical Word Book! First time I have worked anywhere that actually recognized MTs for this week.
My hands get cold, and typing with cold muscles is like (sm)
running or other exercise when not warmed up. I wear thin, warm gloves with the fingertips cut out to keep my hands & knuckles warm. For muscle pains in the shoulders, neck, biceps, etc, try Flexall cream - I find it to be VERY effective. Also try slight changes in chair height, keyboard height and angle, and monitor height. I found if I enlarge the print on my screen, it keeps me from hunching forward to try to read it. (CTL + scroll up or down on mouse wheel to make print bigger or smaller. It will not affect the size of the finished product.) Frequent "mini-breaks" to do other chores: filing etc. if in an office, quick household task if working at home, also helps relieve repetitive stress. A few months ago I thought my typing days were numbered due to various pains & arthritis; now I can work pain-free for up to 11 hours in a day. Good luck! :)
Is there engineer week? Astronaut week? Veterinarian week?

I live in the Ohio Valley, it's like this all the time here. A few days ago, no coats, this morning 1 inch of snow. I gave up ever switching out winter/summer clothing a long time ago.

what state are you in? I am in Texas and it was 81 here yesterday and this morning at 10 it was 28. No wonder we are all sick! But I love this cold!
weather
I hate it too! By the way, are you in texas?

 Really nice here, a little on the warm side for me - 85 degrees in Dallas!
Texas weather
We haven't hit 100 yet, but i'm sure it is in the near future. Thank God I'm not in arizona!
Same here. The weather outside is gorgeous, though.
I have almost everything caught up around the house now. Gee, should I go clean something else or read a book outside?
tired of this weather
i never thought i would say it, but it is just too hot for me. It has been high 90s here all summer and humid. It usually isnt this hot here. I want fall to come with some high 50 to low 60 degree weather. CANT WAIT. I need cozy days and comfort foods!
During warm weather I do (sm)
but when it's cold my fingers shrink and my rings start spinning around! That's when they come off.
Thanks...and believe me...I do remember that about the weather...
My uncle says that all the time...LOL. Nice to hear a little bit of 'home'!
Thanks Patti! How's the weather in OR? I sure
s
Oregon weather
It is cold in the morning but dry and sunny throughout the day up to about 50. Beautiful on the river. Know that our wet weather is coming soon though. Gotta run and make deliveries.
How's the weather in Bangalore? usually stops them in their tracks
When a US rep of SBC called to try to get me to switch my cable service for their high-speed interent, I told them no, I don't willingly deal with companies who have all their customer service "help" offshore. She pointed out that I probaby pay more to use my local cable service. Yes, I agreed, I do pay more...and I talk to people in my community and can even go talk to them in person if I want to.
But asking how the weather is in Bangalore is a nice way to break the ice with someone at a call center in India. Weather reports are definitely not part of their scripts.
we have had beatiful weather here in Santa Clara
funny how the weather varies depending on what part of the Bay you live in :)
You know what they say, if you don't like the weather in Ky - wait 5 minutes, it'll change - i
nice to see rain and maybe they will release our water restrictions, of course, now I don't need to water my lawn but maybe washing my car would be nice.
How's the weather where U are? Pouring cats & dogs in San Francisco....
 ..... guess it's time to think about building an ARK! 
Typically this week is a slow week in lots of places
because it is a big vacation week. Typically things slow dow a bit in the summer too because people are putting off elective surgery, but at the same time lots of people going on vacation so it should balance out.
Lowest runs $900 week, highest $1400 week (sm)
Get paid 12 CPL. Been doing transcription for about 12 years.
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.
Ok, I invite you to hop on a bicycle for 15 mile ride in below freezing weather, snow, ice, etc.

definite dearth of good TV on Sunday. Hafta watch weather, sports
YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!!!
HEY YUCK - YOU ARE AS BEAUTIFUL AS IT GETS! LOVE YA MAN!
that is beautiful, thank you....
I am going to email this to my best friend who lost her mother a few years ago. This time of year is always hard for her, as is her mother's birthday. Thank you!!
Beautiful here!
Not to brag - but it is mid 80's, blue skies with little puffy clouds and a nice breeze. Of course, we are in the Pacific NW. Love it here - this is why we left the valley!
Beautiful!
Beautiful MT/ad
Well, I clicked on the link and could not get this ad up - so I missed out on the "beautiful MT". My question here is - are there any really beautiful MTs out there any longer - or are we all overworked, paid too little for our services, expected to do a lot of work that is not connected to the production that we are paid for - and receive little or no benefits or job security. I can tell you after 15 years, I do not feel very beautiful. Would like to hear from those who are "beautiful" and if the procedure to get that way was very painful, as I am contemplating some work.
Thanks so much for this beautiful
prayer. It's exactly what I needed to begin this new day and new year. God bless us one and all.
I work 6 days a week every other week
Due to my company's payroll (it runs Sun-Sat), I'm able to work a rotating schedule with every other weekend off. Week 1 I work Sunday through Thursday with Fri, Sat, Sun off. Week 2 I work Monday through Friday with Saturday only off. Then I'm back to week 1 and get that following weekend off.
I've found that I'm more productive with shorter shifts and I have kids in school anyway, so I work a lot of split shifts during the week. If possible, you might want to consider cutting back your hours to 30 hours and just work five 6-hour days in split shifts, 3 in the morning and 3 in the evening.
If you say I am rich and beautiful...will I be?

Can hardly see through the tears here...that was beyond beautiful!!!
Bless you and your wonderful family. What else can I say but...
Peace...out.
and it is a beautiful state, but...sm
You ask about attitudes. This is my opinion. I lived there for 4 years in the 1970s, got married in Denver in '79. I found the people somewhat racist against many types of people...maybe that has changed today. I lived in Georgetown, Dumont, and Denver (Glendale and Capital Hill), worked from Loveland Pass way out west in the Rockies to the Bull 'N Bush in Glendale (very east of Denver) when the Broncos went to the Super Bowl, crossing all walks of life. I would hope, today, it has changed for the better. Your Father's Moustache Band was around then and still around today. 
Same here, beautiful here in VA 60-70 last 3 days - sm
today we are supposed to get rain and snow, yuk, and back to the cold weather to boot!
Your kitty is beautiful!!! (nm)

Outside weddings can be beautiful...
Don't underestimate this. I had a friend who had a casual wedding (she was not barefoot) but the guys wore blue shirts with khaki pants in a park-like setting with the creek traveling by it. Cut-offs would have been extremely out of place there. Slacks and a casual top would have been okay but I think the best choice is a dress (not exceedingly dressy) and sandles. My experience - one of the prettiest weddings I have ever been to.
Sounds Beautiful
Patti that sounds just wonderful. I'd love to live somewhere like that. I sounds so peaceful and relaxing.
Yes...trust her. It's beautiful! NM
