what a nice gift on MT day !!!!
Today I landed a hospital pathology transcription position; per diem, $22.50 an hour with possibilities of f/t down the road! They hired me on the spot - yippee! Happy MT Day, everyone !

Got a nice thank you gift from All Type.
They are very nice to us.
Can't hear you, doc, over Harry Potter (sm)
Could you get your kids to turn down the DVD?
BTW, they do sound pretty young, but I still think HIPAA would frown on your dictating while sitting beside them, especially since you're a psych consultant, and this patient is one weird potato chip doing some pretty kinky things with cleaning equipment.
[I loathe the new Dumbledore. If he doesn't settle into the role (dumbledore is a bumblebee, not a wasp who throws Harry up against trophy cases), the end of the sixth movie will have us all begging Snape to blast him.]
Harry Truman's Wife....
Her name, her looks, her personality, just EVERYTHING about her was just TOOO COOL!!!!!!
That's good! Have used it myself on occasion sm
Another time I said I was on top secret governmental business. Haven't been asked anymore. 
What is the occasion, how many people...
and does it have to be a crockpot? When I think of Italian cooking I don't typically think "crockpot". I have a ton of recipe sites plus my own so just trying to help.
Anyone going to any Harry Potter midnight parties?
Gift of gab is a gift in deed. Not having it has cost me dearly.
I became an MT because of my interest in medical field, fascination with the work and yes, a lack of social skills. I really did think that my work would speak for me.
My mother-in-law got me a box of all occasion cards for Christmas.
I take it that was a hint, although why I should have to remember everyone else when none of them remembers me is beyond my comprehension. Her son can remember to buy gifts for his whole family. My family doesn't do stuff like that. We maybe send a card or call each other, but no gifts and parties are expected for adult relatives.
I've been called DIRECT on more than one occasion
and they DIDN'T mean it as a compliment. Hah!
I had an occasion to personally ask a weight loss physician...
about all these cortisol products on the market. She said FORGET IT. It's a waste of money. If you read the bottle, they all say that you must follow a sensible diet and exercise regime. In my belief, you'll lose weight without the pills if you watch what you eat and exercise. I've lost 8 pounds since January 1. No pills, no special diet food, no membership fees, nothing. I try to eat food that comes in the form that mother nature provided. No white bread, pasta, or rice. All brown forms of those foods. Lots of salads, vegetables, fruits, lean meats. No cakes, cookies, pies, or other such junk. I have some occasional fat-free candy like Mike N Ike just to keep my sweet tooth happy. It's working. Slowly, but it's working.
I do the laundry, but boy do I have HUGE laundry baskets of clean clothes to put away!
I don't mind doing the laundry, drying, and even folding. Boy do I hate having to separate them and put them away or even put them in my kids rooms! Time to have a pow-wow with my teens, so they can do their own!
I have two HUGE baskets overflowing with clean clothes that need to go into their drawers or dressers! I hate when that happens!!!
Depends on how busy it is, but our small town Wal-mart has asked me on occasion, even when the
buzzer has not went off.
Hey, I meant David, sorry.....sm
sometimes trying to help can lead one to NEEDING help!:->
how D as in David A as in apple
R as in Robert E as in elephant you complain about an a resident! Hasn't he earned the right to be here (just like the ESL's you came to love). I'm sure his ancestors were ESL's, right?
How's it feel to have someone blast your chance to vent a little?
DAVID GRAY and tiramisu.
oprah and david letterman
From what I could see on the Today Show this a.m. they showed Oprah and David and they did kiss and make up and everything is fine with them. David Letterman even walked Oprah to across the street where she was appearing for something at the end of her appearance on the Letterman Show, both smiling away at the cameras
Did you know there's a David Letterman Sign? LOL look it up!!!
Hmm, I think that was David insteal of Daniel
My gated neighborhood includes physicians, judges and the like so I really don’t think this applies to our low regional averages. Their wages, I am sure, outweigh even my husbands who makes really good for us poor little folks here in the south.
Ahem, it was God who told David to wage war on
God has always waged war on enemies and done so through human beings.
Everything the military does is in service of the USA. You don't have to like or agree with the reasons as to why the military deployment but every action is in service of this country.
By all means, sit on your tush and do nothing to protect the country from any threat whatsoever. LOL
Then you can be the first to serve under the tyranny that will be rolling down OUR streets in their tanks and blowing up OUR people with their suicide bombers.
LOL
The Life of David Gale is excellent!
When a Stranger Calls is HORRIBLE!! Took my son on Saturday to see Cars...it was really good.
Andy Richter from David Letterman show.
Loved him.
Heather knows David Spade since 10th grade
David Spade and Heather Locklear were in the 10th grade together so they have a long history......they did try dating this past year but that didn't work, according to David on TV just the other night.
Is everyone relieved Oprah & David Letterman have kissed & made up?
Last night's show wuz so touching...
David Radford =Sinatra guy. Kevin Covias=nerdy kid. nm
xx
Totally agree...The Life of David Gale is excellent!

How nice is this keyboard? Nice light touch?
I have a regular Microsoft ergonomic one now but I'm thinking I should probably get a replacement and use mine as a backup.
I was nice today, and people were nice to me.
If you steer away from the nastiness, there are a few nice and encouraging posts in there.
I really don't know but the best gift I could get is what I have now and that is 2 of the most te
companies anyone could have to work for! Both companies are simply wonderful. It is very hard to find ONE company that is the best but to find TWO is too unreal and to me that is the best gift one could ask for. I feel so blessed when I read these boards and see all of the folks who are unhappy. Both companies I have are thoughtful and really care about their people. You really cannot ask for more than that. ;)
No x-mas gift
This will be my second Christmas with this company. I did not receive anything last year so I don't expect to this year either. Still, a good company to work for.
gift
I just sent a gift of food from Popcorn Factory. Will arrive the 19th. I appreciate who I work for. very much.
Gift for Mom
Go to Hometown Favorites.com - neat stuff!
MT gift
I received a very nice tote bag with the Transolutions' logo with a very nice card. The bag has lots of pockets--love it! Happy MT Week!
Did u get a gift?
I didn't. I guess technically we're not entitled to getting anything but it still would have been nice to get a card or something to show more appreciation for what we do. Just my thoughts. I think it depends on the size of the company.
gift
I scrapbook so of course I think in terms of pictures, momentos. How about a small scrabpook (4x6) filled with pics on great romantic paper. OH even has a scrapbook section. Check it out. Even if she doesn't scrap, you can buy kits that include everything you need and then put it together adding a few personal touches like journaling.
gift
When my husband returned from overseas I brought him a coffee cup filled with chocolate candies. The cup had an American flag on it. And a nice card. He really isn't going to be interested in the gift, so a token gift would be plenty. Enjoy your reunion!
Gift
I give my doctors cookie trays. Somebody else suggested poinsettas.
Each day is a gift
and I do not say that lightly because my last week or so has sucked big-time donkey eggs. I said to my hubby this morning "Okay, honey, I'm leaving for the office now." He looked at me and cracked up because I was standing in the hallway in what he calls my "fart sack" a giant, several-sizes-too-big flannel nightgown. My kids are both home sick with mono and getting them through final exams and everything is going to be a challenge. The flip side of that is how lucky I am to work from home so that I can oversee their recovery and still earn a paycheck. I've resolved to try to find the silver lining in every cloud today.
By the way, those of you who saw my most on the gab board about DH's cellulitis, it seems to have miraculously started clear. I'm not getting cocky yet because he still has a pocket of infection near the top of his scar but he might be okay!
Gift
When my neighbors watch my cat while we're on vacation, I usually also get something from the place I visited.
gift
What is an appropriate gift ( reasonable ) to give a doctor's office that has a ton of employees ( I am an IC)? I feel I should give them something since I do appreciate the work, but do not want to spend a ton of $$. Thanks
thank you gift
We recently had a family reunion on my husband's side, hosted on 2 different days by 2 different cousins. We want to send them both a nice gift for their gracious hosting. Both families are in their 40s/50s, husband and wife. Thanks for any ideas.
gift
I have sent a basket that has different cheeses, sausages and the mix.. You can get those pretty reasonable. I think the name of the place is Figi's?
How about a gift certificate for a
for a decadent say of self-indulgence. I wouldn't mind a massage right now and would LOVE it if someone bought me one. LOl
If they have hobbies, how about gift
their favorite stores? Also, sometime you might write them a letter telling them how you feel about them (if you are close and care about them a lot). Nothing like a genuine, heartfelt gift to make a girl cry....seriously. I still have a letter from my little brother from when he was in about 5th grade (he's 35 now with kids of his own) and it is just precious. Don't force it, though, only if you really mean it. Maybe even include pictures from when you were all kids.

If you already have two households of "stuff" you obviously don't "need" the money either, especially since you are going to have a yard sale. Two terms come to my mind - trailer trash and greed - if the shoe fits - put one of them on and leave me off your guest list. Personally, I would make a donation to the children's home, as I no longer send flowers to a funeral when a charity is listed. I send money to the charity and the family receives a card saying that a donation has been made in the memory of the deceased person. Since you don't seem to mind asking your guests for money - may I ask your age and the age of your fiance? Just trying to put this in perspective
I got the BEST Mother's Day gift!
Back in December I had a car accident. I was POURING rain and the woman in front of me slammed on her brakes rather suddenly. I hit my brakes, but I guess because of all the water on the road I didn't stop, I slid and hit her.
Her car had very little damage, if any. My car (Dodge Stratus) had about $1000.00 worth of damage to the front end. The airbags did not deploy though because it was a very low impact accident.
Well, I had removed collision insurance from my auto policy because at the time I couldn't afford it. My son had been having some medical problems and I was trying to cut corners any way I could.
My car has been sitting at a body shop since December waiting to be repaired. The estimate was $900.00 to replace the hood, headlights, and pull the engine forward as the accident had pushed it back some and clamed the radiator hose shut and the fans weren't turning either. The estimate did not include painting.
I have not been able to afford getting my car repaired yet. I have been driving an old piece of junk that my parents have sitting at their house as a "back up" vehicle for emergencies. It burns oil like the dickens, smokes like crazy, no air conditioning (in NC that is critical), and drinks gas like its going out of style.
Yesterday my son and I went to my parents house for lunch. I pulled in the driveway, AND THERE SAT MY CAR!!!!!! I swear to you, I cried. I couldn't believe my eyes. They had had it repaired and painted. Well, they painted the new hood and the front fenders. The fenders didn't have any damage, but they did it in order to blend the paint. It looks increadibly good. I can't even tell any difference between the new paint and the "old paint".
They also took it to Stanley Steemer and had the interior steam cleaned. When they did that, they also cleaned the motor, so it looks brand new. The only thing left is getting a new front bumper. It has a couple of cracks in it up where the hood and the bumper meet. But the body shop could not find a used bumper for it and to replace it with a new one would cost $900.00 by itself. So, we will be looking out for a used bumper and when we find one we will have the bumper replaced and have the entire car painted. I can wait for that though. I am just so thrilled to have my car back!!! No more piece of junk for me!
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!
MT Week Gift
On Saturday I received a very nice tri-fold tool kit (in pink no less) in a box with the company logo on it. It is full of useful small tools and came with a note of appreciation. I thought that was a rather considerate gesture of recognition.

DH anniversary gift
One year my sister had some very beautiful "beaudoir" photos taken that she gave her husband for an anniversary gift and he was nuts about them. They were all taken by a very reputable photographer, all the shots were tasteful and nothing X-rated was exposed or showing. One showed her very covered up with a red feather boa, you could see her bare shoulders and her bare legs, but not much else; another showed her kneeling in an unmade bed covered in all the important places by a sheet. She had 4 taken in different poses and different settings. They were some of the best photos I've ever seen of her. They hung them in their bedroom so that they were kept private, but they were beautiful enough and tasteful enough that she showed them to family and close friends. From what her photographer said, quite a few women have this type of photo taken for their significant others. Just another idea to ponder. :)
