I want my bread crumbs white so I let them dry up in the open overnight (winter brings low humidity)
a very good way not to waste stale bread (aside from pudding).

I have found nothing works for me like Lanier
Tried many others (very expensive also) and could not hear as well with any of them so I keep going back to Lanier and the best part is they're not expensive, around 25.00.

Here is the only thing I have found that works sm

Get a full 8 hours of good sleep at night.

Most people in the US, especially the female people in the US, do not get enough sleep. We push, and push and push, and do for everyone...but not ourselves. We stay up late trying to keep a nice house. We cook meals, do the dishes and work. Men don't get it. ANY woman who works outside the home can tell you, we ALL work the second shift of housecleaning, childcare, cooking and laundry. Men work one shift at the office and sit on their wide fat arses for the evening and complain about what they aren't getting. Precious few will clean up in any way, shape or form.

OF COURSE you are tired and draggy at work. Once I finally realized that I was overeating to compensate for being so very tired I looked at my fat behind and understood that sleep is more important than food. I started insisting on 8 hours of sleep. Guess what? I don't power nap at my desk anymore! I have lost 40 lbs in a year and I am actually getting more done, at work and at home.

No amount of energy drink or caffeine makes up for sleep.

Oh I see, I'm glad you found a combination that works for you! nm

I have not found one yet. Tried a dozen of them - nothing really works well or lasts long. nm

This is the best site I've found about treating fibromyalgia. It works for me, maybe it will for

I use Shorthand for Windows and love it. I have found it works well with most every program. SM

I have used with Word and Word Perfect. I have used it with Meditech and Cerner. I have used it with RadNet and StarNavigator for Radiology. I can use it with my email applications and on the internet if I choose. If the Expander is open and running, you can use it with any and every window program you use.

I was really simple to learn to use too. Very user friendly.

eat bread. it will stick to the bread and go down.
I had this happen a lot.

Thanks XXX. I found a "Microsoft Works Word Processor". You say I save those as files?

I do have a CD drive so if I can buy WORD like you mention, I can load it.

Do you think it would be beneficial in the long run to invest in WORD (maybe buy it at BEST BUY or something) and load it on my computer? I am going to be doing lots of work, so better to use as good a program as I can as far as being able to SAVE stuff - There will be lots of opportunities for macros (or saving paragraphs, etc). Whatever the term is these days to mean: saving lots of words, LOL.

turkey, rice and oatmeal
Don't know if it would help the gas problem, but when my dog got real old, he didn't want dog food, and I gave him turkey (vet said turkey very easy to digest) and rice, and he loved oatmeal. I'm all for giving an old dog whatever makes him happy.

Oh, I bet oatmeal, honey and aspirin would be divine!

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.

If you eat, drink, & get crumbs & spills in your board, a new one will definitely feel much

I just make like a meat loaf mixture with egg, cracker crumbs, salt, pepper, egg and milk. SM
Form into patties, cook with some chopped or sliced onions, then add an envelope of gravy mix and water, cook a few minutes. Easy, you can add other stuff or use canned gravy. Enjoy!

Bread around 2.00...

per loaf, milk was $2.90 last night (gallon). Our home cost $171,000, we paid $1450.00 per month for mtg payment. Not totally clear on the taxes and other things. My son goes to a private school, but have heard wonderful things about the public schools in the area.

Hope I helped you out!

All you need is a nice salad and bread. :)

Put your bread in a food processor and

tip for banana bread lovers. sm
I just disovered (thru a friend) that very ripe bananas can be frozen (in their skin) no freezer bag required to make banana bread on a future date. I tried this, and it does work! It is great!. I love making banana bread for my family, but find that many times, the bananas are ripening too quick for my busy schedule.

Aside from the old favorite zucchini bread, sm
I love zucchini sliced and sauteed with onions, Rotel tomatoes, and crumbled cooked bacon (saute the zucchini in some of the bacon drippings if you can afford the fat/calories).

Been there - could not even afford a loaf of bread once sm
I mean really had not a penny for 2 weeks. We just emptied the cabinets and whatever was in there, we made do. Personally, I know what a terrible feeling that is, downright awful! Remember there is always light at the end of the tunnel. If you have anyone close to you who can help you out - that is one thing, but if not - you will have to make do with what you have.

Try the really cheap stores - the ones where usually you wouldn't even look at before. They have great deals, like Aldi, or the dollar stores, the outlet stores like Wonder, Hostess, etc.

I have to say that experience has humbled me and my family significantly.

Good luck - things will work out. Sometimes, we get wake up calls, and this might be yours. I think I have had quite a few already.

Okay, what is Jerk BBQ and the bread? sounds good!

you are lucky...they were my bread-and-butter at my past job...
very difficult at first, and I did NOT want to do them; then found out they were pretty much 'standardized' once you got used to the dictators, they say the same thing. Make templates, normals, whatever.

They are interesting, and I could make tons of lines in no time.

Then, I must have gotten 'bumped' when new managers came in and brought in other MTs, because they took them away from me. Never saw them again after that.

Ended up leaving that sorry job, anyway. Very bad experience...

BUT, those ERs paid my bills for 1 full year until then...

Best of luck.

That's what I was thinking, Eat bread or drink something nice and warm to help dissolve.

Oh, I found it really creepy when you said you found the flowers not so skillfully arranged on your
steps, and from your own flower bed. That's what I was worried about, having gone thru some psycho kids myself with my pups. Someone's been in your yard and in your garden and at your door without your knowledge. Its just creepy to me, and I'd still be very, very careful. Especially valid sounded the other MTs warning you about potential fake molestation charges. You just NEVER know nowadays, and these people have already turned on you big time once. Luckily (though I don't believe in luck), you had it on film to save yourself and your puppy. You might not be that lucky next time, and the whole thing just sounds very unstable to me right now. I know you feel sorry for the little girl, but probably the only time I have ever made BAD decisions regarding my life is when I felt sorry for someone, particularly kids. My son even has an evil kid in his life, but one who has a million reasons for sympathy, and I was saying how we should "be bigger" than the situation and invite this kid over to play. Thankfully, I regained my sanity long enough to remember - ever time I have done something like that on a personal basis for someone just because I feel sorry for them AFTER horrible behavior, it has always been a disaster... Be kind, but you don't have to risk your family again. Be kind from a distance. Its sorry she went thru this horrible experience, but YOU didn't cause it, and its not really your problem. But it could be your problem if this kid acts out in your life. Know what I mean?

Toast the bread and then either grate in blender or on a manual cheese grater.

My hubby will always be the bread winner - I am close, but his salary tops mine. sm
My hubby works for one of the top Oil Companies in USA - with overtime - $150K a year for him. He has all the bennies, pension, 401K, profit sharing, etc. I am about 50K shy of his salary.

Tuna mac, green beans, bread slices. Very cheap and good.
All in the world tuna mac is, is a can or two of tuna drained and mixed in with the box kind of mac n' cheese. Serve with a can of green beans and a slice of bread.

Full Word is in the Works "Suite," not plain Works.
Works saves files in a different format, but you can open them in Word if you have the correct filter installed.

RIGHT!!! Someone who works 16 hours and someone who works 60 will have a HUGE difference. NM

Seafood pasta and olive oil garlic sauce, red leaf salad, homemade bread with sun dried tomato

I think I found it, found multiple recipes with the same
exact ingredients so I figure this must be it.

Bread machine, coffee grinder, George Foreman, waffle maker, blah, blah (sm)

Shorthand works with every program, it works outside the program you use, does not interfere.

What I have found ...
is that specialties are usually easier because they are a confined, defined, specific, and more narrow scope of medical terminology, etc. As well, you will not have as many dictators to learn in a specialty field.

The more broad/general the work you transcribe, the greater the base fund of knowledge you need for knowing the terminology, medications, tests, procedures, diagnoses, treatments, symptoms, etc.

Just my experience.

I found their ad.
I see in an old post that you work PT for them? Are they hiring any PT at all right now? Do they consider PT to be by hours or by lines? I can go to their website, too, if you don't get back to this. Thank you.

found it, thanks anyway...nm
