I will admit to having a jar of Bit o' Honeys and Hershey kisses on my desk, but I only have one per day. I'm happy right where I am, too. I love working at home. We've got huge windows and a sliding glass door, and I have total control of the thermostat. It's nothing like any of my other jobs where it was always too hot or too cold and we never got to see the daylight.

Regarding use of fuel sm
We just purchased the house next door as an investment. The couple that lived there used those hurricane lamps with some sort of fuel for lighting when their power was turned off. To top it off, they were smokers. (I'm not knocking that-I'm a smoker, too). Anyway, back to the subject. They used the lamps 24/7 and WHAT A MESS! The soot was worse than the nicotine, believe me. We repainted the entire 3 bedroom home, shampooed the rugs (4 times mind you to get them clean). I am surprised they didn't burn the house down. God knows what else they were burning in there for heat. Lucky it didn't burn down. When we washed the windows, the insides were far dirtier than the outsides. What a mess and thank goodness we are done. I never saw so much black soot in my life and there were only 2 people living there.
ROFL - do folks eat it vertically??? *ROFL..nm
  
The band is Fuel, the same Hemorrhage he did
was by them. I just wish this stuff would go away. Good Lord there at thousands of things more important like AIDS, world peace, hunger, genocide.
And, you feel the need to comment to add fuel
Sugar is necessary!
I eat jelly belly jelly beans to keep me going and it works! Love working at home in my office off my bedroom and do not miss communting one bit especially with the winter upon us soon!
Milk and sugar

Some sugar maybe? Or is that for too salty?

Sugar Free Chocolates
Our Walmart carries Russell Stover Sugar Free Chocolates, and they are very good.
Sorry for typos... On a sugar high!

If you would try the Sugar Buster diet you'd
be surprised at the energy you will have. You'll notice a difference in about 3 days. I'm fixing to start it again because while I get up fine in the morning, after about 2 hours I hit a wall and it takes me about 2 hours to get past it where I can work again. The only problem is I still have 2 hours left in my morning shift when I hit that wall so need to be working.
Anyway the diet will give you lots of energy - similar to being on energy drinks, it will be healthier for you and if you need to lose a few pounds you can do that too.
Coke and pretzels!! Sugar and Salt will

Sugar free candy suggestions? (sm)
My father-in-law is diabetic and we are visiting him tomorrow. I'd like to find him some yummy candy before I leave town. Wal-Mart is the closest store to the interstate that is 24-hour. Any suggestions for what I could find there? Thanks. 
I especially agree with taking ALL sugar out of your diet.
Grape jelly and brown sugar????
Is that as a sauce or in the meatball mix, itself? Would you mind parting with the recipe, my curiosity is getting the best of me.
Be sure to keep areas dry and free of all sugar composites.

Boric acid plus same amount of sugar to
get the ants to take the boric acid (Mule Team Borax). Works like a charm. We had carpenter ants years ago, and exterminator wanted $700 back then to get rid of them. As just a fluke, I was listening to a radio talkshow after the call to the $700 exterminator, and they mentioned Mule Team Borax with same amount of sugar applied around the house, and make sure children or pets will not get into it.
stay away from sugar and take glucosamine chondroiten.

OMG--1000 calories and 10 grams of sugar.

Energy drinks. Caffeine and sugar, sm
and all kinds of vitamins. I like the Sobe one. I even drink it in the morning now, instead of coffee.
Caffeine and sugar had negative effect
My experience with trying to remain alert during 3rd shift: I was trying to perk myself up with caffeine and sugar, but also found that I actually became MORE tired as a result. Apparently, there's a biochemical explanation for this, due to the effect of caffeine and sugar on my insulin/blood sugar response. Both caffeine and sugar cause an initial rise in blood sugar, but then a serious slump in blood sugar occurs, causing me to be even more tired than before. So, I gave up the coffee and, after 3 days of withdrawal symptoms with horrendous headaches and fatigue, am having much more success staying awake during 3rd shift. I have also found that a protein drink or snack is a much better solution. Also, I am told that there are stimulants that do not affect the central nervous system as caffeine does, such as guarana, which I have not tried yet.
Also, it took me at least six weeks to adjust my body clock. I figured out that I had to sleep at the same time every day for several hours, at least 7, and couldn't just take a few naps during the day and then expect to stay awake at night.
The only reason I choose to work at night is because the pay is better; otherwise, I wouldn't do it. I look forward to someday having a decent account with a decent pay with a 24-hour turnaround time. I realize this is a fantasy.
Exercise, cutting down on sugar, and Prozac helps me. nm

My best advice for arthritis. Take sugar out of your diet. You will not believe the difference it
Just a splash of skim milk. No sugar, creamer or flavorings.
OMG, I never made the connection but I think you're right - sugar = big line counts = $$$$$ Than
Walmart has a great selection of sugar-free candies.

Since I gave up eating sugar and refined carbs, I don't crave chocolate sm
I gave up sugar and refined carbs in March of 2004 and I don't crave anything "bad" anymore. I actually had withdrawal-type symptoms for a few days though.
I feel much, much better now :)
I love to make meatballs with the grape jelly and brown sugar mix.
Also, the little smokies (wieners) and bbq sauce for appetizers.
same here- my fingers just do not
.... with fingers.

Could it be something on your fingers?
And I ask that in all seriousness and no offense meant. I have had 3 MS Keyboards and have not worn the letters off any of them. Are you maybe putting some kind of lotion on your hands that would eat the letters off? Maybe if you get the sticky letters another poster was talking about you could stick the letters on the front of the keys instead of the top so they don't wear off, but you can still see them.
Nothing to do with your fingers sm
The "Million Dollar Question" was once, "What is the most used vowel in the English Languate?" I supposed "E" as this lasts least on my keyboard.Guess what - it was "e" - DON'T THINK IT WAS ANSWRED CORRECTLY but we who pound the keyboard would have known. Understand 1110 per cent!
Ya know what FINGERS
You speak ridiculous.... let's all tell our employers we are not working until..........
The idea was to organize and get all your ducks in a row. If you are going to do something, do it with a plan and organize. You can't just jump the gun and go into something blindly. You will look ridiculous and get nothing accomplished.
ROFL!!
and if you toss them a beer every now and then, they'll fall asleep a whole lot faster!
ROFL!

On the other hand, we all probably need a lot less penile bladder in our diets.
Thanks for making my morning!
ROFL!!!
ROFL! I'm with ya there!
My sis is a flight attendant and loves to spontaneously fly into town for a day THEN call me to see if I can a)pick her up from the airport or b)hang out with her for the day.
And she always does this during the week.
My hubby always tells me, "treat it like a real job"...as if it was a FAKE job. LOL...
ROFL!
I forgot about that aspect of it! We were told in Cincinnati that we should wear anything we want as long as didn't offend the sensitivities of our coworkers. LOL!
Cold fingers
Even though I keep my house comfortable, I find my fingers getting cold when I type. Is it just me. Does anyone have any suggestions.
frozen fingers
do you guys have troubles with her hands getting cold? and what do you do about it?
cold fingers
All the time when I start out before the work area is sufficiently warmed up with the SPACE HEATER. Space heater essential to get fingers going.
