Better a turkey widow then a turkey dish
Sorry for your loss!
DH either comes to me or I go to him if I'm at a stopping point. We always hug
and kiss. We are also on different schedules and he goes to bed early and I work late and he fixes me a chai latte every night and kisses me before heading off to bed. If I'm still up when he gets up I get a hug and a kiss before he leaves.
My SIL used this and had no problem stopping.
She couldn't stand taste after starting this and now she can't even stand the smell. It's probably been 4 years since she did this.
there's no stopping outsourcing now
what many people don't understand is this is just the beginning. We and our children will be competing against the best in the field from ANY country- Ireland, China, India...so one better find a job that has to be done HERE - which could be anything from window-washing to nursing...or be prepared to be very good at what you do...
But what is the pay? maybe that is what is stopping MTs from taking the jobs
Most jobs out there only want to pay 8 cpl if that much.
No one wants to work for peanuts.
There may be a few out there worth taking, but they dont last long.
Fast forward, very little stopping, no
calls. I have done this hospital so long that very easy for me, know the dictators, these are the 4s also. I do some straight (training hospital). My favs are ops also and it is just fast, fast typing and fast forward on the VR. I did not want to work fulltime anymore so set this 3000 per line on the days I work so I can still bring home what I want to make.
Then stopping trying to negate her feelings
Bully for you that you wouldn't feel slighted. How wonderful that you don't mind the benign neglect of your husband regarding your anniversary. At least, one would assume, that your husband does something that contributes to making your life pleasant, happy, and easier on a regular basis or does something that nurtures your soul in a romantic or loving way. However, other than signing my paycheck, while at the same time finding ways to get more work and more hours for less pay, my company does very little to foster the warm fuzzy feeling necessary to be able to overlook a cheap slight. As someone pointed out earlier, a 1 penny tip to a waitress is designed as an insult. I've gotten coupons worth more than $5 out of the Sunday paper, and I didn't have to risk carpal tunnel or sacrifice family time to get it.
My trick for stopping expansions from expanding....SM
This might not work for you but I find it quicker to add it in my shortcuts. I simply add the last letter on it again when I don't want it to expand. For example, BP = blood pressure but BPP = blood pressure. COPD = chronic.... but COPDD = COPD. That's a lot faster for me than to do all those other steps. Just thought I would throw that out there in case it might work for someone else too.
I wasn't talking about stopping work today. Before we do
how many of us there are. We need to be locating and contacting MTs who don't use MT Stars or other MT boards, and start networking with them. Five or six of us from this board deciding to stop work today isn't going to change anything. We have to get our numbers up, and get all of our collective antennae pointed in the same direction.
Don't cap happy holiday season. Cap the others and Happy Holidays alone. nm

Turkey Day - In or Out?
I'm spending my first T-day with my family in 8 years! Yea! Hope my brother-in-law doesn't set the turkey on fire on his grill like the last time!
Turkey dinner...
with mashed garlic potatoes, bean salad, stuffing, gravy, ham, buns....YUUMMMMYYY I am sooo hungry!!
Happy Thanks Giving!!
Yes, and I'm the one cooking the turkey
Don't think my guests would appreciate a "tofu turkey". I will do the whole traditional meal and those who choose not to eat the turkey will still have plenty.
Tofu turkey
Yes, Im a vegetarian. I usually make vegetables and potatoes, yams, etc., for Thanksgiving. Made a tofu turkey a few years ago and it was delicious. One year I bought Worthington Farms fake turkey slices and made some vegetarian gravy and we had *turkey* sandwiches, home made potato chips. I have been a vegetarian for 31 years, since I was a teenager.
Ok, are ya sick of turkey about now?

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.
the turkey produces its own liquid...
if you add chicken broth, be sure to only add a little- like 1/2 a cup.
My pet turkey, Bubba, died of
natural causes two weeks ago. He was about 50 pounds. His wife, though, Bubette, is still healthy and well. I guess she is a turkey widow now.
Whole turkey breast is good, too. sm
Pork roast tastes good, too, but I have a small rack at the bottom of mine that it sits on so it isn't in grease. I have also done whole chickens with lemon juice. Tasty.

I quit 2-1/2 years ago cold turkey
after smoking about 40 years. It was one of the hardest things that I ever did. To this day, I still want to smoke. I am really relating to feeling like you lost your best friend because that was the same thing that I said! I wish you well because it is hard to stick to it. One thing I did want to tell you is that you can get support from the American Lung Association (or was it the American Cancer Society). Anyway, they have people who can counsel with you, send you literature, can possibly hook you up with a local support group, plus they follow up with you to see how you are doing. The more I think about it, I think I contacted the American Cancer Society 1-800-227-2345 or www.cancer.org. Good luck! If I could quit, anybody can!
crockpot turkey breast question
I just got a crockpot, have not really used one much. I want to cook a boneless turkey breast. Have looked at recipes online, most have no liquid added. The idea of leaving it on low at home, while I'm a work, (with no liquid) makes me a little nervous. Comments? TIA

Thanks guys. And I thought I was tired of turkey! :)
I was going to make the pea soup today, but I didn't feel like it.
Maybe I'll have more motivation tomorrow. I got everything done early this year and I'm still wiped out. Maybe it was the pitter patter (more like CONSTANT RUNNING) of grandkids. 20-month-old twins, a 2-year-old along with a 2-month-old that is hungry every 3 hours.
I love them dearly, but I'm in my pajamas and it's not even 5:00.
Turkey stuffed with cornbread dressing....
With gravy, served with peas, sliced cucumbers and tomatoes, with strawberry shortcake and homemade whipped cream for dessert.....

Ranch Turkey Meatloaf Recipe
I don't know about you...but I get sick of the same old thing for dinner...uggghhh Try this...last night my family was the trial and gave the verdict....mmmm..mmmm...good....ENJOY
Ranch Turkey Meatloaf
2 eggs
3/4 c. of ranch flavored tortilla chips (crushed into small pieces)
3 Tbsp. Salsa (I used mild...depends on how spicy you like things)
2 Tbsp. Ranch Salad dressing...(I only use Kraft...but I am sure you can use any other kind of Ranch dressing)
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. poultry seasoning
1 tsp. minced garlic
1 lb. ground turkey
Mix all the ingredients together....until you get a meatloaf consistency. Then put into a baking dish and bake @ 350 degrees for one hour. Serve this with salsa and sour cream (strictly your preference) but dipping in the salsa and sour cream just enhances the turkey loaf... ENJOY!!!
Let me know what you think...
Thank you MTstars for doing the turkey giveaway again. I hope I win!

No, my turkey is still in my freezer. I refused to cook this year.
I'm either going to cook it at Christmastime or slap some Cajun sauce on it and BBQ when the 18" of snow melts.
Greece, Turkey, Egypt, Nepal, Japan. sm
But I have to say, the USA has my heart and there are so many places here I have yet to see. It was nice visiting other countries. It was ALWAYS good to be home.
Congrats Rachel L. of Nebraska you won the Thanksgiving Turkey!
We have contacted you via email asking for your mailing address. If you have not received an email but see this message, please email so we can get your turkey to you in time for Turkey Day!

Daughter is vegetarian. I cook a turkey and she hits the side dishes. (sm)
We do pretty well with this. I just make sure I have some of her favorites so she still feels like she is having a feast.
I saw a picture someone made of a "turkey" they had formed out of raw veggies. I think the basic form was one of those rounded shaped loaves of bread and the veggies were on toothpicks. the head and some tail feathers were made from construction paper. It seemed like an entertaining idea especially if you had small children around.

CONGRATULATIONS! Mary Y. of Bowling Green, KY on winning the Farm Pac Smoked Turkey!

Nope! I only stress over things worth stressing over, which doesn't include turkey & taters!
where are you coming from????
Do you actually think these people are all addicts? These are the common people who could not afford to get out, probably making a lot less an hour than you do. They had no vehicle, and they left their homes with all their possessions in their arms. These people are starving and dying on the streets. It could just as easily have been you or me, and they just want to survive! If it had been a foreign country, help would have been there lickity split.
Are these cks coming
I don't think I'd cash them either. They don't make sense from what I'm reading. Has anybody contacted the law firm handling the class action suit for the MTs to see what's up there and if these are connected?
I'd sure hate to have your be "settling" by you cashing them and you not even know it.
Their day is coming! Nobody
If they were smart they invested what things came to them under
the table for selling us out down the river, because the bottom will
fall out from under them soon enough.
Right now the United States is in such a weakened state, the world is
ready to pounce on us. They are talking in the Trillions we are in debt now as
a nation.
And this coming from someone
who works at Scribes? LOLOLOL This is the funniest thing I have heard all year. They are the biggest scam artists around!
Hey! I'm coming right over to help!
Does not sound bad to me! The only thing is...be sure to check out what other posters said about "Are they making you claim 13 cpl or just what you are really getting, which is 9.75 cpl." You do not want to claim more than you are receiving. Don't worry about the taxes. They are a headache but you would be, basically, self-employed and would have to pay federal taxes just like EVERYONE does, and you would have to pay BOTH your share of SS, just like we all do anyway, PLUS the employers half of SS. Then, at the end of the year, you get the employers half back on your federal income tax form. You might even have to fill quarterly, but maybe not if you don't make very much. An accountant could give you advise on all this.
They know what's coming
I have relatives in Naples and the last time I saw, the center of the projected path puts Naples right in the center.
