How do these people sleep at night? This should be brought to the attention of
all the major TV stations and aired on prime time. 
Yes, I wish I could get them to sleep at night, too.
I had one kid wide awake until after midnight, and another one woke up at 4:30 this morning with a bad dream. This was after one of their friends pestered me every five seconds yesterday so I had to get up early this morning to finish my work. It was, "Hey, watch me. Hey, look at this. Hey, look what I can do. Hey, look what I built. Hey, hey, hey." Tap, tap, tap on the shoulder. How 'bout, "Hey, go bug your own Mom because I'm working"? 
Wow! Do you even get 3 hrs of sleep a night?!! Amazing! nm

I wonder how those shysters sleep at night. nm
?
Maybe you accidently bopped him one night in your sleep? :o>
... and now he's a little nervous.
If I wake up in the middle of the night and can't sleep, I work a few hours sm
then I go back to sleep and when I wake up do more hours. A "regular day" no way.
babies are easier than teens and older children. they sleep and you can hold them and type. nm

ROFLMBO..jsut saw my blooper..guess i shouldn't type late at night eh?
x
To finish...no one obviously feels like typing up, so the night people get the pool garbage. Grrrr.

If I work when the kids sleep, when will I sleep?
I understand what you are saying about the kids will always bug me no matter what. I just thought that if I had a job where I didn't have to hear dictation and type word for word that maybe it might be easier to block out the kids. There are no babysitters to watch the kids around here, besides that is why I work at in home in the first place. The kids are 2 and 5 so hopefully it will get easier.
Thanks
I ask them how many people they know that can type. (see message)
They usually know a lot of people who can type. Then I ask them how many people do they know that do MT work at home? Usually they don't know hardly anyone except me. So I tell them, "There's a reason for that!" If they think it's so simple, how come they don't know hardly anyone who's doing it?! LOL
You said THAT right! Most people avoid her type
nm
The people who hate QA are the ones with bad skills and cannot type for nothing!
Maybe these people should learn how to bring their scores up instead of thinking their mistakes are right!
What type of doctor specializes in helping people gain weight?
I'm kind of baffled on what my mother should do, and I'm hoping that someone out there has typed a report on something like this.
My mom weighs 78 pounds and cannot gain weight through diet. She has seen several doctors, and they are not sure what she should do. Is there a type of doctor that specializes in this?
Her history is that she had a severe H. pylori infection. When I was a kid it was so severe that her stomach ulcers hemorrhaged and she went into a coma for a while. By the time H. pylori became an actual diagnosable condition, the infection had eaten away most of her stomach. She went on antibiotics finally, but by that time she had to have the majority of her stomach, some of her intestines, and her gallbladder removed.
She now eats quite a bit, but everything runs right through her. She can't gain weight no matter how much she consumes. She has tried all the protein drinks and even tried eating large quantities of trail mix with no results. She can't gain weight no matter what she tries.
She has seen several doctors and a dietician. None have have offered any real solutions and all have questioned whether she is anorexic and just hiding it.
Does anyone know of a clinic or hospital that specializes in this? Are there any types of treatment for this?
RE: I used to work for Freedom Type - VERY nice people - didn't do VR, just straight typing (nm)

I saw HOWIE last night on a late night episode of Blind Date. too funny.
I'm thinking if they are smart they'll boot Rachel. I think she's really smart and a good player. I don't think Howie is all that smart or able to be a winner. I think this could force Howie to hook up with James to go for the final 2.
It's taco night! (again.....) We had taco pizza last night, southwestern chicken soup before th
Maybe I'll just have a salad.
if you live among trashy people, low income people, people w/o goals or direction,
content to just get by, you by default become a part of a group. "people" have decided to group trailer people as trash. that is because there are enough people in that group to earn the title and even if you aren't trash, you are categorized by others. did i think i was trash in lower class neighborhood surrounded by people who drank and fought all weekend? no but i knew i wasn't staying and did not try to pretend that all the fools in the neighborhood were just nice folks who ended up where they were because high horse snobs deemed their neighborhood low class. people for the most part live exactly where they belong because they don't want to educate themselves, they don't mind "trash" around them and they don't want to be bothered trying just a bit hard to extract themselves from that world. they justify everything to themselves i guess saying everyone who doesn't like their lifestyle is a snob and the comedians (Jeff Foxworthy/Chris Rock, etc) who make fun of them are just ill-informed.
As for me, I fought hard to get out and don't even want to look back. It amazes me people stay for generations.
don't type double spaces. Type single. Then no one will be cheated.

I can type with wine, can't type with coffee, though...too jittery.

That is, type the code above before and after what you want bolded in the text-to-type box. nm

Thanks. Now I can sleep better.

Sad day, my mom had to put her little pom to sleep.
no sleep !
What's up with this insomnia? Mine started year before last when my brother was very ill. He passed away a few months later, and ever since, I have been depending on Ambien (which is NOT a good thing!). A few weeks ago I went to Tylenol P.M. and it does help and does not give me any side effects, about 5 hours of good sleep. Sometimes I think I transcribe in my sleep! Don't know what's up but my daughter is encouraging Valerian; after reading these posts about it too, I am giving it a try! 
NO SLEEP
I used to use Ambien for years and it worked great, except that about 15 minutes after I took it I would begin hallucinating, calling people and telling them all sorts of things - some pretty good stories came out of my Ambien days. I would see things that weren't there and one time I saw 8 of my husband (wish there were 7 more of him - I would auction him off on ebay - He's a keeper - and then never work again for all the money I would make). I now take Wal-Som which is Walmart's sleep aid medication - it is not Benadryl, though, it is doxylamine succinate. It is about $4.00 for 24 pills (a lot cheaper than Ambien).
good luck - I can remember those days of racing thoughts - do you have an anxiety disorder? I did.
Job B. I could do in my sleep

why no sleep for that long?
Sleep Number Bed
We've had the Select Comfort Sleep Number Bed for several years now and it definitely is the most comfortable bed. We had a water bed for years and years and love it too. The one down side to the Sleep Number bed after having a water bed is that when you crawl into it on a cold nite it is COLD. We don't have an electric blanket. The water bed was always like climbing into a nest! But I would HIGHLY recommend a Select Comfort bed. Paul Harvey and Rush Limbash both advertise them on their shows. After having the bed for a couple years our house took a lightning strike and it blew out the air pump. We called them and they send another pump at no charge. That was very nice.
meant to say there not their. Going to sleep now!!

sleep apnea
My sister had the test for sleep apnea. She had to go to a sleep lab at a local hospital and spend the night there. They hooked her up with EKG monitors and other monitors which she didnt know the names of but she said basically she had to sleep and they watched and monitored her breathing, heart rate, etc., while she slept.
HAH!! I need some sleep - I looked right over it..

3 x 8 = 24 (hours) When do you sleep?!! (nm)
?
Maybe so. I cannot sleep on my stomach lately due to this. (nm)

Sleep Study
Get this: I had an appointment with the doctor this coming Wednesday to discuss a sleep study. Last Wednesday 2/1/06, his office calls me wanting to know if I was coming in because I was late for my appointment, and I reminded her that it was not that Wednesday but this coming Wednesday and she remembers and admits she got it wrong. This morning same girl calls to remind me of my Tuesday appointment!!!! Went through the same thing again and then she says, "Oh, yes. It is Wednesday. Can you come in Thursday? He's going to get called to the emergency department!!!" Uhhhhh did I miss something or is she clairvoyant on emergencies? This is why I do not go to the doctor unless it is absolutely necessary. I guess he has a golf game lined up.
I typed in my sleep once...sm
it was a late shift, about midnight (which is late for me) and I got up to go downstairs, move around, stay awake, came back and found I had typed something about a TV in a box...? So it can be done!

Sleep Comfort Bed
We bought a Select Comfort bed. It is wonderful. My husband had really bad back problems but since getting the Select Comfort he has not had any problems (except when we sleep away from home). He loves it and recommends it to everyone!
Serene sleep aid
This is an all natural product from a company called New Spirit Naturals. It works for me and other people I know who use it. I take 1 before bedtime and I sleep like a lump. I used to take Benadryl to help me sleep as I have terrible sleeplessness at 2 or 3 in the morning and then I worry about stuff. E-mail me for more info regarding this sleep aid if you're interested. Here's to your sleep!
sleep apnea
Sleep apnea will also cause morning headaches, and feeling like you want the cry in the morning because you are so tired.
Serene sleep aid
It is 29.95 for 30 capsules from New Spirit Naturals. My husband is a distributor for this company and it is awesome! I hope you get some sleep soon. I know it changed my outlook and I had no idea how grumpy I was due to lack of sleep until I had some awesome rest with Serene. My head hits the pillow and I don't wake up until about 5:30 a.m. and I wake rested! It's amazing. Good sleep to you.
Gosh, you really should get some sleep
I always fear I will make an error when I am feverish and sleepy. I think the boss would understand. The symptoms will subside more quickly more likely if you get plenty of rest. Also, less chance of secondary bacterial infection in the lungs. You may want an antibiotic with strep. But, you be the judge.
Sleep apnea
Excellent suggestion on the sleep apnea! Husband was sick for a long time, first with high blood pressure, then memory problems, depression, headaches. He got medications for all of the above symptoms, but it wasn't until I insisted and had a mini tantrum at the doctor's office that he got tested for sleep apnea, which is what was causing all of the other problems. Now he takes no blood pressure meds and does not have trouble sleeping, but he cannot really remember anything that happened during the period of time when he was suffering from sleep apnea and was overmedicated with the wrong medications.
Sleep studies? sm
Can you make any money on sleep studies? Any good reference websites or sample reports I can get. Any info appreciated. TIA
Sleep studies
Here is a good web site for sleep studies. When I did them, I found them to be pretty easy. I think I added the link below too. But here it is again:

Sleep issues
I have tried over the years so many things without success or with side effects. Melatonin puts me in a light phase of sleep, waking up frequently. Valarian root causes palpitations. Antihistamines do the same thing as the melantonin.
My godsend ... Tension Rx Nightime. You can buy in a healthfood store (though can be hard to find) or on-line. It is a mixture of a few herbs, aminio acids and GABA. It is very relaxing but not over sedating, and I am thrilled that if I get up in the middle of the night, it keeps me drowsy so I can go back to sleep. Only downside is your body builds a tolerance, so instructions state 6 weeks on, 2 weeks off. It also improves concentration and focus the next day.
Happy sleeping!
sleep problems sm
Have suffered for years. Benadryl works but gives me restless legs for some reason and it only works for a few nights anyway. I find reading for awhile helps, although hard because husband hates the light being on. I am afraid of all these herbal supplements as I am highly allergic and have a rapid irregular heartbeat. A hot bath, boring book, try to keep problems off my mind until morning, not easy! I tried listening to CD's but if the music picks up the beat, I'm wide away again. Sometimes just nature sounds helps. Our brains are always working so very hard, it's hard to shut it all off, isn't it? Docs don't understand how hard we work, they should give us a little something mild but think we're drug seekers. Understand.
They take all the work while we sleep, therefore
there is none in the morning.
Get a Sleep Study
It could be sleep apnea or narcolepsy. Yes, you can be healthy as a horse and still have sleep apnea or narcolepsy!
