and she was shocked to see what kind of home we could get here for under $250,000 compared to what they have where she lives. Her thinking was my community was really high in cost when no home goes for over $450,000. The prices are really great here.

Me, too, I visited sm
I am a fellow New Yorker, although a few miles upstate. My daughter lives in Brooklyn, works in Manhattan, and I visit often. I loved your gargoyle stuff. Isn't Manhattan the most magic place? Please keep blogging. I really enjoyed all of it. Street finds. LOL. Definitely. My kid found the greatest headboard and footboard and bed frame there, just waiting.
I've never even visited OR, but that's where
I told DH I want to live. He works for Target now, and his boss told him it could be arranged!! I do have an in-office job I enjoy here in NC, and houses here are quite affordable, but I just know my real home is somewhere in Oregon. I understand it has the longest ski season of any State. I have Siberian huskies, and there are places I can take them and have them hitched up to a sled with a team! Wouldn't that be cooooool???
I have family here in NC that would not understand. I also finally have a great Baptist church. I heard there are hardly any churches there.
I'm so confused! LOL
I visited that site just now and...
It totally blows! Incredibly hard to navigate and seems totally dead...no way nearly as helpful or informative as this one.
I couldn't see it until I visited the site where you got it from.

I visited the website you listed and according
to that, it is not an insurance plan. It is a savings plan. You get a membership card that gets you savings on medical care at participating providers, not insurance.
they have visited a couple of churches (sm)
They haven't found one yet that they think they will attend on a long-term basis. I know that will help a lot once they get settled in a church. That is actually a huge part of the problem. She has attended the same church since she was born! Same pastor and everything! I don't think there is going to be a church that will live up to her expectations but I hope she finds one soon that has people her age age. My parents just picked my son up (he's 13) and they are going to visit her a couple of days. They're hoping it will not make it worse though. Hopefully they can help watch the kids so they can get some things done around the house and make it seem more like home. Thanks for the suggestions.
I visited your blog--very nice!
It looks so professional and all fancy-like! Keep it up! 
Visited Idaho a few years back sm
beautiful, beautiful state. Decided that's where I want to retire.
Free rooms? Not when I visited at the Bellagio!
Tell me, where did you find free rooms in Vegas?
Anyone visited Tweetsie Railroad in NC and surrounding attractions lately?sm
Thinking about taking the family to Tweetsie Railroad next month. My husband went there a long time ago and now he thinks it would be a fun trip. After looking at the website it does look like family fun! We have a 4-year-old son who loves trains. I was looking through websites to find some nice places to stay. It seemed like they had a few. Any information on past experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Great city; I stayed in Dunlaoghaire (sp?) and visited Dublin. nm

Anyone from Georgia?
Looking for some info about Gainseville GA in Hall County. What kind of community? Nice place to live, etc... Thanks!
Thanks Georgia Gal!
That was some peachy-fine info you gave out.
Thanks from a Florida Gal!!
To Georgia Gal
Amen.. I agree with you totally. Heck, if I could work for cash, I would too. More power to them. Anyway, who is going to report a person to the IRS for paying cash to someone? I sure wouldn't. Great Post!!
I'm in Georgia, too.
They're pressuring our kids because the schools around here are so bad, and they're trying to move up the ladder within the 50 states in terms of test scores. My local superintendent of schools is constantly making excuses about why our scores are lower, i.e. absences on test days, higher standards, etc. It's a bunch of junk. The teachers are being pressured to get the students to score higher on two tests per year rather than teaching like the old days. In addition, the AR (accelerated reader) program has turned my son away from wanting to read just for the sake of doing so. He used to actually enjoy the stories and didn't worry about how many points the books were worth.
Also in Georgia
hubby says he paid $2.04 yesterday, and saw $2.02 this morning . . . he wondered if you were using a store discount card, and I wondered what area of Georgia you are in. We are in Gwinnett County.
anybody else around here from Georgia - and where? nm

California MT's
Does anyone know why companies are unwilling to hire people who live in the state of California?
california MT's
So far we have been told by 2 companies that they will not hire from California, I am waiting on a reply from a recruiter who is checking into it. I think it may have something to do with the OT laws and the highest employment taxes in the nation.
Sucks Though!
2.21 here in North Georgia

 I would like some information on medical transcription companies in Georgia Thanks
Pebblebrook HS, Georgia
So sorry to hear about this. Here in Georgia...sm
people are now suing owners of pit bulls when their dogs kill or attack themselves, their kids, animals, etc. The state had legislation last year to ban these vicious mutts but it didn't pass.
Same here, in Bethlehem, Georgia . . .
Weatherbug says 81 degrees here!
thanks...Loved Georgia!...nm

Asking rate in Georgia for MTs?sm
Just curious as to what other Georgia MTs with their own accounts are getting per line. I have been an MT for about 12 years and don't think I am being paid enough, but would like to know what everyone else is asking before I raise my rates. Thanks!!
I'm in northwest Georgia ....
specifically, Cedartown.
Not so hillbilly to me-from Georgia!

Hi, Renee. Welcome to Georgia. SM
I am in the far north portion of the state, where my husband and I and our pets are snuggled inside enjoying a very nice Saturday while the snow falls outside. Far more serene than your home with two little ones, no doubt, but missing out on all the fun too. Speaking of, I can't even read the paper when watching my tiny grandson, so I can't begin to imagine how you moms manage to get any work done.
Georgia Girl
Yes!! I am here in Williamson, Georgia/ Griffin area.

California trans
Yes, they are a great company.
California's is $11 or $12/hour...sm
whereas Florida is bumping it up to $6.15 an hour next month I do believe or next year sometime....2006.
It's all relative when you think about housing costs, like in california.....you could live in a dump and it might cost a half million.

Cold in California
Chance of snow tonight near Fresno. I know this is not your kind of cold, but for us it's unusual.
I live in California (sm)
Actually, they get quite a bit of time off in year-round school. My daughter started school July 24 and will go to the 1st part of October and then be off all October. Then she'll get two weeks off at Christmas/New Year's. Then she'll go until February and have that whole month off. Then she goes until the end of May and is off all of June and most of July until she starts 2nd grade. It makes it easy to plan vacations because we know when she'll be off, and we don't always have to plan a vacation when everyone else in the world is. We actually enjoy it!
Still 2.69 in central California. nm

In-house pay in No. California is $22-30
.
Come to California and you'll fit right in (sm)
with all of us fat MTs  And California is usually a "skinny, healthy" state - not that I've seen of in-house, hospital MTs, at least here in Northern California.
IMHO, you will do better working in-house in a "liberal" area or state, or employee-oriented state, because major employers know not to go there, or else 
California MTs: Please see inside
Are we required to have a business license in California for IC transcription work?
In California pay is $20-21/hour.
You don't do the work in California, do you?
If you are not physically in California doing the work, then you don't owe them tax money.
I would not fill the form out.
Not EVERYWHERE in California is expensive
I live in a rural area near Napa. It's a LOT chaaper here (home prices and rent) than in SoCal where I moved from last summer. California is a big state, lots of places to settle down. Have to take time to really look.
California Transcription LLC
HELP!!!! Can anyone tell me anything about California Transcription LLC???? I think it used to be called California Transcription Unlimited, but I'm not sure about that. Was just offered an overflow account with them, IC, but they only pay monthly, so I will end up typing for 6 weeks before I see a paycheck!! This is not a problem for me, but my only concern is that they are legit and actually pay people. Would hate to find out at the end of June that they are rip-off artists.
I REALLY need some input here gang. Does anyone on here work for them now or in the past, or know anything about them??? Thanks!!!
