how about the coffee creamer one? sm
Where the woman is watering her grass and then sprays the paperboy when he rides by! That's how I feel sometimes before my coffee!
even our coffee, French Vanilla creamer,

Coffee just always smells so darn good, doesn't it? I drink 3 cups of coffee... sm

in the morning (used to be 4) w/Nutrasweet, a little regular powdered creamer and a little liquid French Vanilla creamer (yes, I do like it sweet!)  If I'm really sleepy and need the boost, I'll have another cup or two. 


Then I immediately start drinking diet Dr. Pepper, and not the caffeine-free kind.  Love it.  I drink diet Dr. Pepper throughout the day and night, about 6 cans a day (it used to be diet Coke).  I've joked with my friends and family that it might be time for them to hold an intervention for me with the Dr. P. 


I do sometimes worry about the mass quantity of Nutrasweet I consume each day.  Anybody else? 


POTS of coffee? Wow...I have 2-3 cups of half-caff coffee with just milk each day. Any more and I

The great southern coffee... Community Coffee...

People who grew up with it and have moved have it sent to them now or stock up when they visit Louisiana.


There is a powder you can get that will
deteriorate the stump.  You need to cut it as close to the ground as possible, drill several holes in the stump and then put in the powder.  Not sure how long it takes.  You can burn a stump but it will take a very long time and you can't sustain the fire, will take multiple fires. 
Powder...

Quick, inexpensive, and easy:  Pour fine powder (baby powder, baking soda) at holes where the ants are entering.  If they are progressing in a line across the floor, lay down a line of powder so they will not cross. 


It seems that they get stuck in the powder and can't continue.  You will find that literally just a few make it across the barrier, but nobody is coming behind them.  There will be some laying dead in and around the powder


Otherwise, they seem to tell their sibling, friends, and distant cousins that it's a no-go, find another route--and that trail just dries up. 


Try the new Chai creamer..it's delish! nm

baking powder or soda for height...nm

1 heaping *tablespoon* of baking powder?!

Good ole Folgers...but with flavored creamer!

Me too, but I use regular creamer and a dash of mocha. NM

The letters will probably get more attention, if you put a little white powder in them...lol..nm

Just a splash of skim milk. No sugar, creamer or flavorings.

mL is used for liquid measures, cc is
used for solid measurements (cubic centimeters, such as path specimens).   Which is correct for measurement of air? 
Liquid Diet
My brother-in-law lost a lot of weight doing a liquid diet (not sure for how long, though), but he gained most of his weight back.
the turkey produces its own liquid...
if you add chicken broth, be sure to only add a little- like 1/2 a cup.
Get some liquid Benadryl in him quickly and
People can develop allgeries suddenly and for no apparent reason and it's much easier to deal with when you have your senses about you than wake up in the middle of the night to the sound of his gasping for air!
Have you thought of liquid diet? - sm
I found a great site a few years ago, liquiddietdiscussion.com and they sell something similar to Optifast though it tastes a million times better and is cheaper. I have done NS too. I have about a 2 month supply of both right now, and think I may do a liquid diet for months then transition to the Nutri-Systems for return to real food part and to train myself how to eat right. I have about 70 pounds to lose too to get down to my proper weight, though some of it may be from a medical problem (waiting on blood work now, will know on Friday), but figure in order to get a quick result a liquid diet for 1 to 2 months should give me the jumpstart I need and hack off at least 40 pounds in 2 months if not more. Check it out and discuss it with you doctor. Good luck.
Liquid diet for 1 to 2 months?!
I don't think I could do it for 1 to 2 days, let alone that long?!
here is a sample (sounds delicious, I might add)...I always add liquid when using it.
2 - 3-1/2 lb frozen turkey breast (not thawed)
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon crushed dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/8 cup sugar

Place frozen turkey breast in slow cooker. Pour remaining ingredients on top. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours.
I have that too, I call it liquid gold, it is SO expensive.
My pharmacy charges $65 for a 2 inch tube of it, but it does work well. 
OK, sounds good, but doesn't it need liquid to

Vacuum the house a lot, garlic powder and brewer's yeast (not baking yeast) sm,,,
in all the dogs' food, and definitely give the little one a bath. You'll  need to comb the fleas and their dander and eggs out wtih a flea comb. My dogs used to love this. During flea season, I'd get on the floor and comb them after dinner every night. Have a bowl of soapy water handy (with the flea soap if possible) and dip the comb in the bowl when you start and especially after you find the fleas (and ticks!) on the comb to drown them. Residual soap will help keep them off the pooch. Fleas congregate at the base of the tail and in the groin area. Get puppy used to combing and he/she will come to love it as part of normal grooming. An herbal flea collar might help, too. The other dogs will need to be watched for fleas, too. Good luck!
Hey, that is me too. Nothing like a cig with your coffee :-)
 
coffee
Usually 3 to 4 large cups in the morning and 2 to 3 cups of tea in the afternoon.  I couldn't live with my morning coffee ! 
Look for, not look like for...coffee!!!

best coffee

Whole bean and grind it yourself.  It blows away the stuff in the can already ground.


I buy what is on sale, because it all tastes good when you grind it yourself.  But I prefer 8 O'Clock Coffee, which may or may not be available in your area. 


Whole bean all the way. 


One CUP of coffee? Why would you deny yourself that? nm

Three Tylenol and coffee (sm)
 of course, a massage never hurts!! Feel better!
You are right ! I need coffee. tanks

Yes along with drinking my pot of coffee! nm

Coffee and a big cup of ice water so far...nm

Are they coffee drinkers?
I love coffee and would love to receive some Starbucks flavored coffee beans and cappuccino (sp) mixes, some Mrs. Fields cookies, muffins, a couple of pretty coffe mugs, a good book, throw them in a basket and voila!
Oh my goodness! That's a lot of coffee.
I recently cut my coffee intake from three large cups a day to, most days, none. For me, the big reason is that I sugar/cream it to death, and thought I might lose a few pounds. I also do not think that my brain works right when I've had that much coffee.

Trying to move to green tea sweetened with honey, and not three large cups. (LOL)
I think I actually keep my weight down with coffee..
I use the artificial sweeteners and fat free flavored creamers or half and half. And caffeine can suppress the appetite which works for me ;)
Okay..... what KIND of coffee??
I think Duncan Donuts is the BEST!!  :o)   Although I buy their ground coffee and brew it myself...... Much cheaper that way. 
About drinking coffee....

I gave up caffeine a few years ago.  I used to drink 8 to 10 LARGE mugs of coffee a day but gave it up. 


The bad part about being caffeine free was waking up in the morning and thinking "This is as good as I am going to feel all day long."


But....I got used to it. 


lol need coffee.....like not kike
cannot spell today. Good thing I am not working today.
Got fresh coffee, come here or sm
play games on yahoo! games.
I almost spit out my coffee on your
last sentence! However, I am not certified. Back in '70 if you could pass an English spelling test, you got the job and hard knocks was the teacher. When this whole AAMT started, the hospital really did not want us taking off for this stuff, made it clear there would be no increased monetary benefit, so we just never did. We never had a CMT in there until about 7 or 8 years ago, boy was she an eye-opener, we were totally out of the loop in a lot of different areas. We had never heard of abbreviation expanders. Catchup is a devil. And a lot of comments from all different areas of the country are almost identical - "all you do is sit there and type" is probably #1. A retired botanist once told me, "you're a transcriptionist? where have you been all my life?" These are so few and far inbetween that I remember all three of them!
Coffee/AutoText
Hello to all my MTs out there!  I would like to know, how could I use my auto text to the best of my ability?  What I am saying is that, whenever I try to look at what is important to add to increase  my production, I don't seem to know what to add.  Everything from words to phrases, that I add, is still not enough, and I don't see an increase in my production at all.   I need tips and advice from pros and vets who has been there and done that.  I appreciate any help really.  The platform that I am using is EMDAT.   Also, what is the best tasting coffee that I could buy or one that taste the best?  I love chocolate.  I am open for all suggestions. Thanks.
coffee preference
I found Folgers Black Silk a nicer, richer flavor with using lesser amount.  husband is happy still (he drank coffee-flavored mud for years).  I would reduce the amount I put in the pot a little at a time until I reduced 4 spoons of grounds to 4 cups of coffee (small pot) down to 2 spoons of grounds.  He used to call it "sissy coffee" but he says it does taste better when I make the coffee.  Go figure... 
Kids gone, just the coffee. :) NM

coffee motivation
ok I feel sooo unmotivated to work even when I am right in front of my computer. I am just off task, thinking about other things. I lack the focus and brain energy to type. When I drink strong coffee or energy drinks, I am super productive. I enjoy typing and get lots done when I have been using caffeine. What is going on here?
No coffee yet this morning. You said it was on the server.
On the one hand, if it's on the server and not on your computer, perhaps your supervisor only has it installed to make sure nobody is hacking the system.  Maybe your supervisor doesn't even know it's there, but I doubt that.  I'd want to be sure it didn't get on my computer, but you sound savvy since you're already running anti-spyware software.  How would I feel knowing my supervisor was spying on me?  Well, I have nothing to hide.  I would never do anything I shouldn't be doing on her server.  Then again, I'm not some infant hacker that needs to be monitored.  (I'm not a hacker at all, for that matter!  LOL  Oy....Where's the java?)  Most of my former employers used to monitor what we did with our computers with regard to email and the Internet.  I have nothing to hide, but if they can't trust me, they can bite me.
ahh I thought she was asking how many lines she would get. lol I think i need coffee
lol
Aside from coffee and sleeping, how do you keep yourself awake?
I'm so very, very tired and sleep deprived this week from everything that's going on.  My eyelids keep drooping and I can't get motivated, but I have to get this work done.  I know if I try a little catnap, I'll be out like a light for the rest of the day.  Any tips?
Oops! Need more coffee...."their" name...nm
