I think the boys did a much better job than the girls -- I really like Taylor's style of singing

let's face it, I just enjoy everything about Ace! For the girls, I like Paris, and what's not to like about Kelly?

My boys were 3 1/2 and my girls were 2.
Cheerios in the toilet worked for me. SINK THOSE BATTLESHIPS!! :)
But both boys were 3 1/2 at least and when I was just about ready to give up, they just started using the bathroom as if nobody had ever told them a thing.
Pressuring and scolding are the 2 worst things you can do. Just be laid back and all of a sudden one day, they are diaper free. None of my 4 have ever had an accident or wet the bed since the day it kind of dawned on them. Sort of like the day they learn to ride a bike without training wheels. :)
This too shall pass like water under the bridge. No pun intended. Now I'm buying diapers for my grandkids.
Now, now,. No gold stars for little girls and boys
who have an ugly attitude. You might have to sit in the corner.

didn't mention boys or girls - but what about Dorothy, scarecrow, tin man and the lion from SM

To The Singing MT
Thanks for your nice note a few pages back. I had the pleasure of seeing Jill in her home town of Philly when she was touring with Sting a few years ago--amazing! BTW, one of the entertainment shows was playing "Golden" last night while they were talking to some of the Golden Globe winners--it was perfect!
To The Singing MT
Have you heard of The Singing Podiatrist? I stumbled upon her very interesting site. She has a lovely voice
we will be singing the blues
They wont be crying the blues.they already have hired more than enough transcriptionists and from what I surmise, as my doctors now spell EVERYTHING, they hired newbies or not to swift MT's. What we need is a union, however, in the past the minute union is talked about, many MT's backtrack and say..they dont mind the decrease in pay, they like working out of their homes and dont want to change anything..yada, yada, yada..
You are singing my sad song
What you have described happens to me to and it feels like a personal attack. You can see the ER jobs there, you work your butt off to get to them just to watch them disappear before your eyes. It can cause major depression! This is how we make our living.....don't mess with us!
If you find an answer, I would love to know what it is.
Isn't there a difference between singing and screeching?
No one could ever or will every match Barbara's voice! Anyone can get high pitched if they scream which Celine does compared to Barbara. Celine might be good but never will compare to Barbara!
They looked like the singing raisins.

what happened to Theresa the singing MT?
Just wondering how she made out with the voting process. 
and before you start singing praises to shrub
why didn't he go after Bin Laden? He did and is doing nothing to help anyone! He only made things WORSE!!!

Call me what you will, I don't care. I STILL think they look like the singing raisins.

They look like boys. That's why the OP
liked Jude Law. Boyish charm. That's why I think they are a bit effeminate. They never got past boyhood.
THREE boys.
I also tried eliminating sugar, reducing caffeine, exercise, and even going braless because I heard the underwire could be causing it. Nothing has helped so far. There's also a website out there where women are pulling together because doctors aren't informing us of the side effects of tubal ligation.
I have boys, too.
They've had girls chasing after them since kindergarten. The notes from girls that I find in the laundry were just too much. I love you, I want to marry you. Goodness! Last year, my 11 y.o.b. had a girl threaten to kill herself if he didn't "go out" with her. He took it really hard because we had just lost a family member to suicide, and he felt like he had to do what this girl told him to do or she would die. She even told him her parents had lost custody of her and she had to go live in another state to be adopted. Compulsive liar. I had to go in to the school and nip it in the bud with the teachers, school counselor and principal.
I told my boys they would not be dating or "going out" until they were in high school. Even with that, my oldest boy had a girl who wanted to sneak around behind her mother's back and lie to see him because she wasn't allowed to date. I told my son no way, you're either straight up with the girl's parents and introduce yourself to them, or you don't date. He told her that, and she dropped him like a hot potato because she didn't want to date an honest boy.
BUT, not ALL little boys do this.....
mom of 3, soccer mom, basebal mom, footbal mom, teacher's helper, preschool daycare provider, 2 brothers, 20+ male cousins and NEVER saw anything like this.
Then why are they after little BOYS???

Being there for my boys
You nailed it! When I first started, it was purely by accident, trained on the job (1987), and way long before being married/kids. People would say to me "you can do that at home cant you"? Oh no way I said! I never expected to even stay in this profession, I was going to college. But then when I found myself having my kids at 36/37, I realized I did not want to got back to work, so the same hospital I worked for hired me to help at night from home. Who would have thought that my transitional job would be my savior so that I could afford to stay home with my boys. It was truly a blessing, and sometimes when it seems unfair, it's beats having to wake my little guys (4&5) and take them to daycare for 9 hours. Would not trade it for nothing!
when my boys were little they use sm
to come to my office and they said they also said mom sounded like a machine gun typing. The old wheelwriter typewriters, I really did like the sound. It relaxes me for some reason!

ALL little boys do that. They think it's funny.
Boys' language and social skills are also slower to develop than girls. Wait until they have a name writing contest outside in the snow on the school playground. Speaking from experience, sometimes teachers have personality clashes with students and do pick on them.
No, ALL little boys don't do that. Watch your
Yes, I have a son.
What about moms doing the same with little boys?
Ya know that's done more than the former!
My experience with my own boys
was to teach them the fine art of respect and acknowledgement in such events.
For a family member that was not distant in relation, I had them attend. They did not have to approach/view the casket, but they attended. They learned to sign the guestbook. They learned how to order flowers, sign cards, and I spent time showing them the funeral/visitation process.
I had a class in high school on death and dying and it taught me quite a bit I was unaware of.
Most of all, I wanted them to be prepared and as comfortable as possible with their roles and expectations placed on them when these painful situations happen.
Those boys need to be exposed to camping LOL!!

I agree that boys are not any easier.
I have raised 2 girls and am now raising a 13-yo boy and 2 11-yo girls. I think boys are worse, although the girls are no picnic.
Well, I have 3 rambuncious (sp), bull headed boys. sm
Of course, they knew everything then and know everything now. I couldn't pick their friends but boy I sure pounded into their heads that as long as their friends were at my house, they abided by my rules and my boys were responsible for their friends' behaviors. If their friends acted out of line, my boys were responsible for telling them to get the hell out--didn't have much trouble when I gave the kids that responsibility. Sometimes their friends weren't the cream of the crop or came from not very well to do families, but they always acted appropriately at our house, then and now. Have earned a lot of respect from my kids' friends that way. Sometimes, they spent more time at our house than they did their own. My kids weren't angels but they didn't turn out to be felons or junkies or drunks, either.
Think this through. 5 hours in a car with two boys aged 2 and 4? I think your husband might be
on the right wavelength here. By the time you get there, you would all be tired and crabby, he has been working 13 days straight so he is probably tired and crabby and then you have to do the reverse trip in just a day? Maybe if the boys were 12 and 14 but at 2 and 4, the 5-hour drive could turn into 7 hours with stops.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder. My husband goes fishing with the guys for a week each summer and I think it does us both good. It is like a vacation at home too and we do goofy things like eating cake for dinner just to make it "fun" and not a whine fest for the kids.
Be grateful that you have a husband who obviously has a great job and who is thinking about you (although it might not seem like it).
Take the 5 hours each way and do something fun with the boys instead :)
Signed,
Happily Married but not joined at the hip
I forgot the bathroom - me and I have 3 boys (10, 5, 2) and a husband - YUK!!

sad for you girls
sounds like you ladies are finding your boys in all the wrong places. MEN don't cheat. BOYS cheat. You need to find a MAN and then you will find yourself in a REAL relationship like never before and you will be HAPPY and have TRUST. It CAN happen as it happened to me. Good luck.
My girls like me
Well, my girls like working for peaNUTS. Oh golly, my sense of humor has gotten the best of me, bad boy Frank.
mean girls
hope you never find yourself in a bad situation - you have no sympathy or regard for other humans
The girls are going down . . .
Kelly was soo bad. I think and hope it will be the three boys remaining. Katherine's dress was a little much wasn't it? She had visible panty lines. Chris was very sexy.
Mean Girls!
Well, here I go! Gotta vent. We use IM to talk to the QA person and the boss for the small MTSO I work for. Many times the boss will turn "Busy" on, so you can't ask her anything. If she wants to talk to you, she will, but if she does not, she won't. Same goes for the QA. Sometimes I feel so small! I do not bug them unless I really need something, but apparently they feel I am bugging them too much. Days go by that I never IM either one, so its not like every day I bug them! I feel very insignificant when they do this! Am I overly sensitive?
And I thank the mothers of boys who have raised them to respect women.

yep...little girls are the best!! Glad I have 3 of them! Have fun! nm
re: View girls
I cannot stand the View girls. Who do they think they are! They act so high and mighty, especially Star Jones and Meredith whatshername! Please! 
I think the girls forgot to ask you
if you were married and if you'd post a picture for them? Just kidding.... It's just kind of funny to see how many responses you got from your post while new MT females get maybe one or two. I know of a couple of dude MTs. We had one in-house. Poor guy.
RadGuy not into girls
So what? Is there a problem with that?
Hey Crafty Girls
My niece wants to get into a hobby or do some crafts in her side time, but does not know where to begin. She is a modernistic woman, age 30, not into the country motif, but wants to be crafty. Any suggestions out there of where she might start or a craft kit I could get her for Christmas? Thanks for any and all suggestions.
Several girls I work with do...
One has one on her ankle. Another has one in the small of her back. Another has one on her arm (like men usually do)...Personally, I think the one in the small of the girl's back is the cutest. Its just above where her low-riding jeans fit. I dated a guy who had one on his tush... a rose. He said he went through a bad divorce and then had it done thinking to himself some day he'd be somebody's rose...Now that I think back, shouldn't that have been the other way around?? LOL...Anyway, good luck, they say that hurt a bit, but they don't regret getting them. I, myself, am not into pain! LOL

I was a nurse first with a neuroticism about spelling and documentation, so this was a good career move for me. It's not because I was chasing the work-at-home dream.
