It's healthy to enjoy some alone time. You'll adjust and enjoy it soon.

Water here, too. I fill water bottles halfway and freeze them
so I have ice water for the entire day. It's easier than trying to cram ice cubes down the little mouths of the bottles. I confess to having coffee, Earl Grey tea and a cola today because I'm too tired from the idiots who were rodding their cars around in front of the house from midnight until 3:00 a.m. last night. Oh, well. At least I'm off today.
December 15?
I always thought it was when the final quarterly payment ws due, January 15, is that wrong?
If you do go in December...
The best days to go are December 18 to December 23rd. We went to Universal Studios/Islands of Adventure on December 21 this year because they gave us discount passes for that week. There were no crowds at all. We walked on all the rides. I think our longest wait was 20 minutes for Spiderman. The lines were so short that we were able to go on all the rides at both parks, several of them 2 to 3 times each, and we were pretty much done by 3:00. I asked one of the workers there, and she said that week was the slowest of the year, but that December 24 to Jan 1 is usually very crowded.
If you decide to go, my kids and I actually prefer Universal/Islands of Adventure over the Disney parks. We like the rides better, and it is a lot cheaper. I also like the fact that you can bring one of those big sipper cups in those parks, they will let you refill it for $1.25. They also let you bring food in the park. I usually bring PB&J sandwiches and our sipper cups, and then we only purchase dinner in the park.
No, December's NOT ideal...
Anyone who's from Florida or has been there knows the rates for EVERYTHING go shooting through the sky come the season, which is the week before Thanksgiving through week after Easter.
Granted, the weather's beautiful in December, but you WILL pay for it if you go to Disney, make no mistake..... 
We married in December and get this
my husband is sooooo crazy he wants to visit in the summer. One summer trying to walk about 1/2 block my feet already turning red. It was, oh, about 110 outside. It does not bother him but whew, the sweat is pouring off my brow. Neither of us gamble but I love all that glitter and stuff and he loves the buffets so works out well for us. We got married at Treasure Island, beautiful place. Funny, but we never stayed there again. He said we could have remarry again there - told him he would do anything to get back to the buffets!
I took the test in December
I liked using the CMT Review Guide and the CD that comes with it. It's very similar to the real test.
Good luck!!!!
Obviously in whatever was said about trailer parks,
nobody was referring to you and you seem to have taken it too personally. No flames here. Just understand, trailer parks got their bad name long before you came along. Yes, there are some nice ones out there, but the majority that get into the spotlight get there because of bad things. So, don't take it personally unless it applies to you and hopefully now that you've had your rant you feel better.
Trailer parks
My neighborhood will allow it, but they have a lot of obstacles -- fortunately. I don't even thing trailer park developers or landlords care about the folks they sell to. Trailers DEPRECIATE in value, unlike standard housing. Banks won't even lend money to finance or mortgage them. You have to finance them through other means, usually with high interest rates. Not a smart investment.
Trailer Parks
Where the heck have yu been? I know may peple with great educations.. problem is the job market is pathetic. You sound like a person from SNOBSVILLE.. you ought to me up with my ex. There is absolutely nothing to be ashamed about living a mobile park. and for your information lady, you bettr have good credit and a good recommendation or else the will not take you in some of the trailer parks. You are a snob and an arrogant woman. Where you from NEW YORK? Have you ever lived in a a mobile home park. Most low income could NOT afford it, after all when you have to pay 500 bucks a month for lot rent. you are so full of it....I live in a mobile home court and Love it. it's clean, with security, and there are no old mobile homes in this court. Get off your high horse...GEEZ.. THEY DO REQUIRE CREDIT CHECKS MS SMARTY PANTS.
Ugh, we bought a new Dell in December. First off...
the thing sounds like a meat grinder the entire time it is on. Makes so much noise I think I'm on the tarmac at the airport. Secondly, we installed a new video card and then somehow disabled it and needed tech support to sort it out. Yep, got "Jimmie" from Calcutta or Bombay or some other such place (who do they think they're kidding?), who walked us through a process which we thought was going to reset the video card, and he had us RETURN TO FACTORY SETTINGS! Just as I hit the last button, I realized what he had me doing. I lost all kinds of documents, taxes, you name it. I was livid! Not happy.
I've had 4 jobs since December...sm
Seems like they will tell you one thing and then deliver another. They don't even let you get adjusted before they start sending you the worst of the worst.
It's been very difficult to do this, but I am determined to find a mutually beneficial relationship.
That is why I'm going to venture out on my own. At least, maybe, I can have some sort of control over my own career.
I am learning a lot of different systems, which is fascinating, to say the least. It's been really an enriching experience for me.
I sure hate that testing, though! :)
It's been out of publication since December 2007...
"The Latest Word: The Bimonthly Newsletter for Medical Transcriptionists ceased publication with the December 2007 issue."

Amazing he'll be gone 25 years in December...
seems like it was just yesterday! So, so senseless. Hard to believe Sean's 30 already. Man, this makes me feel my age!!
What's your favorite song he wrote? Mine's "Imagine." Absolutely love it...always have, always will
college kids in trailer parks? where?
that's a new one. i never saw a trailer park on campus or even near a campus.
The disney tickets cover 4 parks so you are not set in where you go- sm
They cover Disney, Epcot, Animal Kingdom and MGM-Studios. With a park hopper pass you can bounce between all 4 Disney parks in 1 day and it only counts as 1 day/ticket. Without the hopper option you can only go to 1 park that day, of course these are a little cheaper. Check out the Disney web site, it will explain all the ticket options so you know what to ask for when you do get your tickets. Universal is separate, is 2 parks in one basically, one side is more kid oriented than the other. Sea World is separate too, they have a few rides there now too.
Just don't go in the summer. The guides say that the first week in December is ideal. nm

Central FL, yes, and the theme parks are all offering jobs. nm

Rosa Parks was also a God fearing Christian woman!

I bought a desktop and laptop in December. Can I claim on taxes..
and is there a limit to how often you purchase computers for your work? A friend thought you could buy one a year and claim it. I bought the laptop and desktop in December and already hate the laptop, but I hate to purchase another one if I cannot claim it this year. Oh, also if I charged the computers on my Dell account in December but did not start making payments in January 2006 can I still claim for 2005 taxes. Thanks.
trailer parks have long been the but of jokes about the people who live in them.
You know that. If you choose to live in a trailer park that is certainly your right but sorry the stigma is there and I nor the OP created it. There was a running joke about Paula Jones (Clinton's "friend") being trailer park trash. Why? I don't know as I do not live in trailer park nor do I want to because I don't want the stigma. I was looking at property in North Carolina and there was no zoning regulation so the property was across the street from a trailer park which brought property values down. I am not making this up nor do I create it. It is what it is. Oh, BTW, there is a new show coming on MTV, a parody I think of the home improvement shows, where a gay biker type grit, tries to rehab trailer homes. Hilarious. Again, I didn't make it up nor stigmatize trailer parks. Someone took a concept of their idea of people and their trailer homes and ran with it. There is also the same idea in Blue Collar TV with Jeff Foxworthy on Comedy Channel.
Bottom line, there is a stigma to living in a trailer park and you have to learn to live with that. I personally can't live with the stigma and do not entertain the thought of moving to a trailer park. I think it would be hard on my kids to have that trailer park stigma on them as they enter school.
trailer parks and low level housing is where criminals generally go.
not too many criminals have good jobs to afford a nice house. i know of child molester filled neighborhood because there are no restrictions, no HOA and the houses are low income homes. no this doesn't only happen in trailer parks but crime statistically happens more often in worse neighborhoods and more ex-criminals statistically live in lower level neighborhoods.
Kinda hard to call Rosa Parks, she died recently. nm
:+
okay neatly correlated lies. and the trailer parks are really neat little hideaways the statistics
no excuse for not researching with google or even yahoo. my neighborhood is zoned to not allow trailer parks (ever wonder why???) thus my property if more valuable than another community that is not zoned against trailer parks. Now did you ever consider why communities would even think of having a zoning commission that would ban trailer parks. Community standards might come in to play and they don't want property values diminished. GOOGLE friend. The truth will set you free.
enjoy these...thanks! (nm)

WATER and MORE WATER

enjoy it -

A water gun would and should get a kid SM
disciplined, IMO. It's a toy and should stay home and not come to school.
At my grandson's daycare they get kicked out for making guns out of Legos! No guns in school anywhere, any time, any shape, form or fashion.
Lord, we made bazookas out of big sticks, rifles out of smaller ones, and handguns out of little bent ones. Then we proceeded to kill each other all over the place - the difference is that we didn't do it when we grew up.
Same here. Enjoy.
I enjoy VR
I work on the eScription platform for MDI now, formerly for Transcend (the eScription VR work moved to MDI). From what I understand, Transcend is continually adding new accounts and needs more people to staff them, for the most part. I'm curious what company/platform you are doing VR for/on? I have made more money using VR, personally, and, as you say, with much less wear and tear on my hands/wrists.
So far I enjoy it
I have worked outside the home and got tired of office politics and dealing with supervisors on power trips etc. I wanted more control over my life. I decided to become an MT which allowed me have that and have been working as an MT for 4 1/2 years now. I enjoy the work (except for those difficult dictations), enjoy working from home and enjoy the flexible hours. I have made more money working as an MT than I ever had before. I find the work challenging. I know there is a lot for me to learn and I am trying to build on my experience and hope to continue in this line of work for as long as I can.
I enjoy....sm
Psych and ER, because they are interesting. Also like H&Ps, d/c summaries, and family practice.
Dislike neuro, especially with a thick accent  .
Then enjoy! sm
My favorite is microwave movie-theater butter popcorn and SnoCaps or M&Ms! Anything in moderation is not bad. I do this just about every month and am not overweight either. Plus, did you know your metabolism rises during *that* time of the month? Eat up :)
Yes - enjoy .12
I make much less than I did 10 years ago - due to Microsoft Word versus WordPerfect and the fact that you have to look up "every little thing" on the internet to complete a report. No one wants blanks and because of the internet they think you should be able to find every doctor on God's green earth, their address and the number of children that they have - as well as business names and addresses, relatives, etc. all done through Google or some other search engine which takes time out of your actual transcription. There used to be people in the office who would take care of these things and now the Transcriptionist is expected to do it. I can never get a good flow going anymore because of having to stop and look up names and addresses, etc. I would be happy with .12 and just wait for the day that your job goes to India - as they are all doing.
i enjoy it
went thru a rough time last summer when they went to VR, but i went out and sold myself and became an editor. they have since thrown in the towel and dictating again. i have too much work now, but i am not complaining. last paycheck i made $1100 so it is worth what i put into it.
I enjoy it too.
Does anyone here ENJOY their job?
Does anyone on this board actually enjoy doing med tran? It seems like all everyone does on here is complain about how bad it has gotten and how they hate it. I just want to know if anyone feels the opposite and still enjoys mt'ing?
I enjoy my JOB, just not how bad the pay has gotten.

Enjoy, eat up and be merry
Prostelysing bothers me. Keep your god to you and everything is fine. Start telling other people it is okay to do something cause *god* says so, then it isnt fine. That kind of stuff belongs on the religion board. Arguments for blacks in the back of the bus, blacks not being allowed to vote, nothing wrong with smoking, drinking, not letting women vote. All of these were thought of as right years ago. We, thankfully, evolved and realized they were wrong and changed them. Same thing with killing animals. IMHO and in millions of others opinions, it is wrong and one day, we will look back in horror. Already so many young people are vegetarians, more so than when I went to school. Im amazed. I have three friends who each have sons. All four of those sons are vegetarian and they are educating and enlightening their mothers about the healthful ways of eating and ethical and kind way of living. Not to harm, tread on this earth softly. So, once again, have a feast..enjoy. Actually, the animals are getting their revenge through disease spread by eating meat. I talked to one thoracic surgeon I used to work with and he said meat eating, especially red meat, contributes to heart disease, plaquing, high cholesterol, gallstones, gallbladder disease and he said that was just the beginning, much more. But, hey, this is America. We can make our own choices. So enjoy. It is just a post about animal cruelty. If it bothers you and your gods teaching, then dont read it.
enjoy it while it lasts
i received letter from MQ stating all ASR work will now be paid at 80%. Yippee! Is the client paying less for ASR work? Is the cost of living going down 20%?
ready to retire
i enjoy your posts
you seem to have your head on straight
Coffee and a big cup of ice water so far...nm
xx
Yes, and that same jug of water costs how much after it's
been paid for with tax dollars, hauled in on trucks, and handed out by National Guardsmen and FEMA workers who are being paid and are away from their own families? That little jug of water costs more to the taxpayers than Perrier.
lol, im sure no one would condemn you for that, enjoy

yes, and running water too.

Muy bueno! Enjoy some for me!
That sounds goooooood.
I'm a little ashamed to say....just I enjoy going to
I know this isn't as exciting as the other posters, but honestly...just going to the beach and relaxing is great for me!! :>
I enjoy going to them and hosting
but then again, I used to sell Homemade Gourmet, so I was one of those that counted on someone hosting a party. Never tried to make any feel like they had to though...
Glad you could use it. Enjoy!
