I heard this on a local radio station...something like 30-something% of women polled said they would not or had not married someone that they truly loved because of his last name, so my question is...would any of you NOT marry someone just because you didn't like his last name?

I, for one, don't think I would let that stop me from marrying someone I loved and really wanted to marry.  However, I am already married and don't mind my honey's last name at all!

He did not get to be 500 pounds overnight.  Maybe if he got up to make his own breakfast and actually went to work, he wouldn't be 500 pounds.  I hate to sound judgmental, but my first thought about someone that morbidly obese is that they have some severe mental issues.  It is absolutely ridiculous that he is draining the system and you being on disability.  I would get out and get out fast if I were you.  I would not keep a bite of food in the house and I would refuse to drive him anywhere.  YOU need to go on a "diet" and lose 500 pounds!  I think you could probably do it overnight.

When it comes to something like that, that I usually take care of but for whatever reason I can't, I will tell my husband exactly what to do, but when he comes back - to use your case as a "for instance" - I will ask him, "Did the doctor look at his foot?" 

Him: "No."

Me: "Did you ask the doctor to look at his foot?"

Him: "No."

Me:  "I told you to have the doctor look at his foot!"

Him: (shrug)

etc., etc., etc.

Your husband may not be like that - I sure hope he isn't. And yes, they should have checked his vitals and checked his foot without being asked. But sometimes you have to be assertive with people. And while my husband attained the rank of major in the Air Force and had no trouble ordering people around, there are times when he should be assertive but isn't. And he is not intimidated by doctors - he started his AF career as an x-ray tech (that's how we met). I dunno....(Rad MT wanders off, mumbling....)

I'd say it was at the very early stages of our relationship that I started to realize that i could marry him.. then I kept telling myself "what are you nutz? you barely know this guy! stop thinking that!! LOL

But now looking back, there was some kind of "special spark" that was there & that was unique from any other experience. We both remember when we first (very briefly) met. We didnt actually start talking and getting to know each other until about 5 months after that. Then when we started talking/dating, it was like we had known each other for yrs, we were just immediately comfortable with each other & had this "chemistry".

it was great, it still is great, i hope it stays great!!

Maybe the folks at Clickykeyboards.com could give you some leads on where to get it repaired, if not the other site I posted above. 

Once again, good luck! 

but because of what you said, I went back in to windows update and told it to let me know when they are available and not to download or install them until I say it's okay. 

oh well, looky looky - Windows update is trying to install IE7 - so you're incorrect I do believe:

my TV on (in another room) and just happened to be getting a drink of water when the first one hit. I immediately called the hospital I work for and they told me to keep them informed. Well, I could barely tear myself away from the TV that day. Thank heavens, my hospital was very understanding. I reported every time something happened which, on that day, was about every half hour.

I also had scanners in my office and would inform the hospital MTs when the ER was diverting patients, or if there was a bad accident or fire, so they would get a heads up for STAT work coming their way. It worked out well.

I couldn't work without noise of some type. With the job I have now, I only have the TV on but not the scanners anymore. I listen to the traffic reports as my husband works 60 miles away and needs that info if traffic is tied up on his route to or from work.

That set-up sounds so simple and cost-effective as well.  I didn't know you used steno pads.  The carbon paper would terrify me, though! 

So really, the only GOOD JOBS out there are for Newbies or Indians!!!! 

Great. 

more $$$ than my female counterparts.  I have been doing this for 20 years and would still be making the same as when I started, except I am much faster now and work fewer hours.

who had 2 back-to-back MT jobs going from one hospital to another.  She usually looked half dead by the time I saw her at her 2nd job, but was getting paid hourly, so I doubt she was too productive at job #2.  Somehow she managed to show up every day though. 

Always up to doing GREAT things.....I sent off your wavs on WP5.1 and about this business to others in my community who got a kick out of your links too.....one lady knows you from the AAMT from years ago.

Back several years ago when I used to frequent that other MT board...the one where they started CHARGING to use it.....is where I first met/saw you and so that was a good 10 years ago. *L* - Nice to see you still up to those good things you were up to back then....always in our interests!!  You are much appreciated, just in case you didn't know it. 

Be well, some of us love *reading* you online!!!
