I believe in something.... Jesus. I'm saved and going straight to heaven. No such thing as limbo.

    The Last Supper was/is ALL about Jesus...nm

    Who cares about dinner? JESUS is
    NM
    I am - I will use any excuse, but Jesus is a GREAT one!
    rolls, pie, green beans, sweet potato casserole. The usual. My mother wanted to try corned beef this year, but we (my siblings and I) are kinda unsure, but hey, if she is cooking it - I know it is gonna be good!
    yes, Jesus is one of many paths to the mountain. Have a good journey!

    Carrie Underwood sung her Jesus song...sm

    We love Mandisa and she did not get booted because it was a Christian song, rather it was also a country song and she just doesn't do country........they all had problems with country, except Bucky and Kellie who ARE country. 


    Mandisa is going to be famous, have no fear..........


    Okay, but if I remember correctly, wasn't Jesus at a wedding when he turned

    7th Heaven
    I am really going to miss it too! I love 7th Heaven!
    7th Heaven
    Hard to find good shows the whole family can watch. We will miss it.
    I would be in heaven
    Lordy, I would be so thrilled if I could make 200 lines an hour!

    Why in heaven do you even have to "ask" him? - sm
    This is a tool of your trade.  If your husband were a carpenter and needed a saw, would he ask you?  I can assure you he wouldnt. He would just run out and get one.   Just go get one for goodness sake.
    Kevin is heaven?
    If kevin is heaven then.....aw nevermind...lol

    good voice but do we really want a nerd to represent America???


    I'd rather just pay the money and go to heaven.

    Do you work in heaven?
    Man, I'd love a job at home with full benefits. Not many of those around here (Los Angeles), if any at all. If the company I
    previously worked for at home had those, I never would have gone back to the word-factory of in-house transcription! Consider yourself very blessed!
    For heaven's sake! It's not THAT bad!
    You can go to CareerStep, one of the "top 3" schools for about $1,600, and if you work at it you should be able to finish it in 9-12 months. As for purchasing equipment, you'll get a foot pedal with your course and Express Scribe (the software you'll use to actually transcribe) is free. You will have to buy a few reference books and some fairly cheap software--that all shouldn't run you more than $400-$500, tops. I'm assuming you already have a computer, or else how could you have posted this note?

    Now, there are jobs being taken over by software and being outsourced to other countries. And there ARE doctors who dictate TERRIBLY. But there are still some decent jobs out there and decent doctors as well. If you work at it and sell yourself well, you should do okay. Good luck!
    well for heaven sakes, huh FUN FUN FUN

    I need to watch now, getting a bit weary of so many this-and-that contest though.  Awaiting return of Dancing with the Stars though. Loved it last time, so fun fun fun.  I've seen Alicia Keys on Leno, brought back two in quick time, she played piano and say.  She is good and so young, so many of them are so young and really have talent too not just a lot of loud hoopla of this-and-that. 


    How exciting for you both.  


    For Heaven's sake... don't do what I did!
    I accepted a position with another company, turned in my resignation when I received the acceptance letter from the other company.  Friday will be my last day on the job, and I have not heard from the other company as to downloading software on computer and my first day is supposed to be Monday.  My employer has already hired someone in my place, so I can't ask for my old job back. The past several days I've sent out about 5 or so resume's to various companies.
    And for heaven's sake....

    don't dictate in the bathroom.  That's waaaaaay more than we want to hear!



    For heaven's sake, where is your lawyer?
    Your divorce is final in 2 weeks, and you're asking this super important question to MTs on a message board? PLEASE ask your lawyer.
    heaven should be closed to most IRS agents

    As soon as possible, talk to an attorney who specializes in this. Ask them if you can file Chapter 13 bankruptcy. In many cases, you can ultimately pay up to 10% of a past owed date.

    While this is being haggled in the courts, you can send money, or not. You will have the protection of the federal government, who will handle another branch of the federal government.

    Just never miss a single payment to the courts.


    At-home MT about 10 years ago...it was heaven...
    I had no complaints about MT-ing really...worked from home, made lots of money with no worries or pressure, worked the hours I pretty much wanted so I could enjoy my 'real' life, it was the best job I ever had ~

    I quite miss it
    Oh for heaven's sake...if she knew how to...
    do that, she wouldn't have a question!  Anyway, what platform do you use?  Most of the time you will find a folder in the "My Documents" folder or in the hard drive (go to "My Computer" and click on your hard drive--usually C:) by the same name as your platform.  Inside that folder will be your templates.  When you get there, you can press Ctrl and F together.  A screen will come up asking what you want to search for.  Click "All files and folders".  Where it says "All of part of the file name:" put "*.dot" (without the quotes).  This will find all of the templates within that folder.  Hope this helps. 
    it is heaven and paradise all rolled into one-I hope you get to go soon.
    Kauai and Molokai are my personal favorites because they are the least developed (that people can visit)
    Oh, for Heaven's sake - if you don't like it just don't reply. Grow up.

    I hear you there! Heaven forbid if you should ask a question.
    I work at a company with a lot of ESL/bad dictators. When I flag something, I never get a response, so I have the same darn flag. I feel like I am risking my job when I attempt to do the really hard dictators. If they would just answer my flag (it is always in the same place), I would not have any problems.
    There's a special place in heaven for people like you...
    You, my fellow MT, are a diamond in the coal that is humanity.

    Blessed Be!
    "May his soul rest in heaven."
    This was the last line of a death summary I just transcribed.

    That's a new one on me....
    Wow ... 14.5 cpl ... that's great! I'd be in "typer" heaven (reference to my post sm

    on the main board - ha).


    Congrats :)


    I just have it saved...sm
    in my ShortHand under degrees and it expands to the symbol.
    Here's how I saved $$$$
    I don't use tapes! The only special equipment I bought was a foot pedal. I have my own 800# and no phone bills!  I pay a small monthly fee and a per minute charge for the time my docs dictate. I keep more of my money than ever before.  Email me and I'll give you my resource.
    you just saved me $$$$ thanks
    you just saved me $$$$ thanks
    Agreed. I always found them to be a match made in trailer heaven

    Hawaii, the place where Dr. Green died on ER. It looked like heaven there. nm

    this saved my marriage
    check out flylady.net - there is a lot of information there, so be patient and read through it...it will give you a different perspective on housework and make it easier on you, even if he does not pitch in. i had to learn to stop nagging my husband about the housework and just do it because i was grateful for my home and wanted to see the floor every now and again :-)one great thing is that, by biting my tongue about the housework, he slowly came around to helping because he was grateful that i was keeping the house nice for him.

    also, getting rid of the clutter one step at a time will also help your husband's mental state - too much chaos is confusing for him. i have a mental illness - manic-depression - and having my house in order by following simple step-by-step routines that are written down so i don't have to think about them - just follow the list - has calmed me down considerably and left time for me to care for myself like i should. you will be helping both of you by slowly, step-by-step getting the house together. getting this will help your dear baby by leaving the floor and other areas clear for him to crawl around and do what babies do :-) without all the confusion of clutter.

    flylady.net made me more loveable by cutting my tiredness and crankiness (because you clean in small steps that do not exhaust you). It also helped my mood, giving me the self-esteem that comes from tending and blessing my home (and, therefore, my husband) by keeping the clutter at a low liveable hum instead of a screaming mess.

    one more thing - try to remember daily why you fell in love with your in the first place. trust me, he is still in there (i was). it was through the committment of my husband to stick by me and tell me all the time that he loved me and wanted to help me that i finally began to love myself again. sure, i still have my days, but they are fewer and farther between, and don't feel so heavy with his help around the house (minus my nagging) :-)

    i also want to say that Jesus turned my changed my life - literally gave me a new life and turned me in a totally different direction than my life was taking - took me out of my self-destructive ways because He showed His love to me. i am praying for you. you are hurting right now, and so is your husband. i pray that your hearts will be healed and your love will come back. remember that you created a covenant before God and your families to stick it out through sickness and health and your husband made a covenant to stick it out through messy house or clean :-) blessings.
    Good for you. lol Saved the day!

    money saved
    I so agree with this. I only have to gas my car up once a month---which is a huge savings by working at home.
    control-Z has saved me
    on occasions where i've hit a wrong key combination and screwed up a report royally -- but you cannot hit anything inbetween the screwup and the control-z....
    I have this list saved
    (as a 2-column document) and then every now and then will print out 10 pgs or so at random. Then, when I'm watching TV, will scan through them to see if anything jumps out at me as something I should add, or trigger an "aha!" Then I make notes and add them to my Expander using my system.
    My rant re: "a match made in trailer heaven - two skanks in a crud"

    Let me FIRST say that I do not usually rant, I am not a ranter, if something bugs me I take a deep breath, look at the offending item in the grand scheme of my life and realize that most of the time it isn't that big a deal.  However, these condescending trailer park references that I run into are a bunch of crap!


    How can you make a derogetory referrence regarding people who live in trailers?  If it had something to do with race or sex you have been flamed by the whole board.  I am sick and tired of generalizations directed basically towards me!  I live in a trailer in a trailer park and I MOST CERTAINLY am not a skank.  I have heard it all, white trash, trailer trash, skank, etc. when people talk about parks.  My town even named it a "Manufactured House Community" and hid it where you can't see it!  I am here because I can afford it here.  The average price for a house in my town in Maine is $250,000 ++.  While we do just fine, I cannot afford that on my MT salary (been MT for 6 years) even though my husband works his butt off at 3 jobs.  Oh sure, we could probably get a loan for a $300,000 house but I refuse to get in over my head in debt just to convince people like YOU I am in your league!  I also LIKE it here.  My neighbors are the best I have had.  All of our homes (trailers) are well maintained, the lawns are spotless, and there is not a single car up on blocks that I can see anywhere!!  Don't even bother to tell me that is not the norm for parks because there are 300+ trailers in this park and they are all just as well taken care of! 


    Another thing that irritates me is the word "skank".  I have never understood why women have to tear each other down using trashy descriptions like that.  Of course I am sure there are those out there who DESERVE the title but most of the time women seem to judge based on the look of the offending party. 


    You may think your comment was tiny and I am blowing it out of proportion, but I am not!  It is comments like that that makes people like my neighbors ashamed to even tell people where they live. 


    I have said my piece and I await the flaming.  When you drive through my park (yah right) and see me standing on the nice, green lawn in front of my pretty trailer with my 7-year-old in the yard, my toddler on my hip, looking very pregnant in my cutoffs and tank tops, you can THINK "skank" all you want.  I KNOW that I am a strong, educated, well-employed woman with a nice little family who refuses to put all our happiness and our hard-earned savings on the line to prove that I am EQUAL to people like you! 


    i'd call that brownie points for heaven LMAO...and a waste of time!
    ;)
    Visit this website - it has SAVED me! - sm

    I came across "FlyLady"... it is actually a website "family" that HELPS get this time and CHAOS under control.  Things DO get out of control, and it slowly kills us inside... depressing us.  This website helps you take control of your time, sets up 15 minutes a day ONLY to work on your "zones"... one week you are in the living room, then maybe the master bedroom, then the bathroom and another small room.... this disaster did NOT happen overnight, and you cannot expect yourself to get it straightened out overnight.  Things get out of hand, but this website family can truly help... I did it, and within ONE MONTH my household was finally manageable, and I could open my door to anyone who came to visit... my friend and her husband came to visit me after a month of FlyLady work, and her husband just said "It just feels home-y to me.  What did you do?"  A MAN said that, and he didn't know what I was doing.  It is very cool, and encouraging, and strengthening!!!  There are e-mails sent several times a day for reminders to hop up and do a 5-minute "hot spot" rescue (hot spot being a spot in the house where it seems to get out of control).... take an hour, cruise the website, it is SO much fun... and DON'T FORGET TO SHINE YOUR KITCHEN SINK!!!  IT WILL MAKE YOU SMILE!!! 


    See an accountant. I'm sure you saved your old income tax

    Find the template where they are saved.
    Usually, this is the normal template, in which case you're looking for normal.dot. Save that one to the flash or floppy.

    If you read the Word help file in Word, you will get detailed, step-by-step instructions. I have found their instructions to be VERY helpful as I am a tactile learner.
    I have older versions saved.

    If this poster (or anyone else) needs an earlier version, I have setup files for both 4.15 and 4.02 available. Just shoot off an email.


    A lesson I learned a long time ago--always have a backup plan.Whenever I download a new program and after setting it up on my computer, I save the original set-up file in a folder called, amazingly enough, Downloads. Then, when a newer version is released, I also save it (usually with the version number as part of the name) in the same folder. That way, if anything goes wrong with the update, I have the old setup files to fall back on.


    How do I print what I have saved in PC Shorthand?
    n/t
    AutoText is saved to the normal.dot. sm
    Your platform might block changes to the normal.dot or you don't have access to that file. Have you checked with the tech support for your platform?
    Do you realize that the Bush tax cut saved this economy after 9/11?
    Everybody got a tax cut.  Now you can't cut taxes to those who don't pay any, can you?  That would be socialism.  BTW, do you realize that the unemployment rate in those countries with cradle to grave entitlements runs more than 10%, as compared to our 4.9%.  France for example.  I know it seems like a simple solution that the taxes from the high wage earners should be taken away and given to those who don't earn anything, but in economic terms, that can destroy an economy and therefore hurt the low wager earners even more.  Case in point, the Clinton luxury tax back in the 90s.  He put a huge tax on boats and jewlery and had to remove it because of the trickle down damage that did to all the jobs those luxury items created.
    No, both my brothers saved up and bought what they could afford ($500) , I was not
    so a car wasn't even in my horizon....but 2 of my friend had parents who had gotten them USED older cars so I got around okay (I had to find my own transportation everywhere). My dad did eventually get me a car though after I wreaked the one I was borrowing from him (brakes failed- 1960 Corvair)-- the car/wagon (1985 used) was $6000 (this is in 1987) and was my graduation gift from college. --- I used it for 2 years, put way to much money into it for repairs, and then sold it and bought with my own money a 1987 Blazer for $11K. I paid my own insurance once out of college, but my parents paid for it up until then though I did work 3 jobs while in school but that money was for books, etc, food, etc. Parents covered tuition, I did the rest. We will probably buy a used car for them to USE from time to time when the time comes as we are in the boonies and it would simplify things, but it certainly would not be THEIR car.
