I'm trying really hard to laugh. :)

Hope you have a great weekend, April.

Happy Birthday, BTW!

Great pic, April! Sorry I'm just now getting back to you. Yeah, my boys are kinda cute, huh? They rule the roost over here! Hope you're doing well!

The LightSpeed writer is awesome to write on. It takes a little getting used to, but it's SO worth it! If you have the opportunity to try one out, see what you think. All my gear, computer and writer, are under 5 pounds now.

Thanks, April!
My daughter is taking me out to dinner tonight, and as a bonus, my wayward stepdaughter happens to be in town this weekend! First time in about 5 yrs, I think. She'll be along tonight too. It will be nice. :)

Let me know what you think of the LS. You are going to try out Jenny's, aren't you?

Hello, I noticed you're on Eclipse. I'm currently "trying" to make the switch from StenoCat to Eclipse. I've had little training, but still afraid to take it out on a job. Any tips? Thanks, Berta(: new to this website, too....

Dear Dahlia-Head, I tried to make that my main pic, but it wouldn't take. I'm really rushed right now, trying to make the mail on the Shetler job. Haven't put it in folders or done the billing - haven't had lunch!

Hey, Chickie, thought I would say hi! Saw that you guys wrote Berta! LOL So thought I would send in my friends request. Try not to do too much dancing this weekend!

Well, it's always nice to put a pict. with the face. I am so glad that your little tootsies are feeling better! Have a great weekend!!!

April, I'm seeing if this post to you pushes me over the edge into socialite status! Don't worry, I'm not going to obsess about the next level. I'm finishing up loading in all my software on this loaner this morning.

I'm still at Mom's. She just went in the hot tub. We're going to the thrift shop soon. I dusted the room - horrible!!!

Ah, thanks! No wonder I'm always saying I'm not getting much done! Between forums and the LS - yikes!

I love glittery, sparkly too!

Yes, Jenny has given me all the admonitions. No chocolate here though! What's up with that? If I actually get out and brave the elements today, chocolate will definitely be on my list of must-haves.

Have a fun Christmas, April! :)

Isn't that cute? I wish I had more time to send them out, but I'm rushing to get ready for tonight. Just went through Mom's jewelry. Not sure what top I'll wear yet. I need to leave at 8:00 - yikes!

Hi, April.

Thanks for taking the time to read the "reindeer" blog. It really was so cute.

Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!!

I thought this card was nice and cheery. Just what we all needed. I spent five minutes sending it to a few buddies tonight. I think you need lots more cashews - as well you know! This afternoon I added a handful of chocolate chips to my pumpkin cake. Way better with them!

Doesn't Lisa's cat look like Mama Kitty? I've already told her it does. I'm still at Mom's, looking at her! When you're taking a job and recording with the Olympus, you can sync it up without a problem in Eclipse, right? Read the Stentura Help discussion by Kate.

Had I brought only one peanut butter cookie, I might have said this yesterday!

April, that cookie Bob was going to eat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't you remember him saying that????????????? Poor Bob! Take it out of the garbage!

Bob should have done this last night!

April, I live in the Sacramento area if you ever have any jobs up my way. My friend Anna works with your firm. I've been reporting for 15 years. 530-318-6279

Great talking to you today. Thanks for the work!!

April, you have already joined the Total Eclipse group. Look to your left and down. Obviously you were overworked then as now! Glad you got this covered - glad that 10:00 went off!

Great talking to you today. Thanks for the work!!

Hello again, April,
I had heard that you had a family business. That's great! Jenny is so kind too. Anna and Drew are wonderful women. We've been friends for so long! Yes, please keep me in mind if you have any work up in my area. I'd love to hear from you!

I just checked the main page and saw you! Mom is reading with Wade on her lap and I'm trying to figure out the Grand with the iPaq. About to give up, though! See you tomorrow? I'm leaving around 2:00.

Happy, happy weekend!

Hope you have one of these!

April, UFRNL, that fortune has expired as it told the story of last week! I'll have to find you another one! UFRNL - unfortunately!

Mom is making me angel hair pasta with Ragu sauce. I write fortunate FORT/NAIT so fortunately is FORT/NAILT. It doesn't come up as much as unfortunate. Mom and I walked around the block and then I came back and did another mile with the walk away the pounds lady cable. Then I played with Roger and Wade with the red laser and when they got tired I went outside to try to find Moon. She was on the Princess lounge. Because I had pet her yesterday there, she trusted me. I started to pet her that I picked her up and called for Scot so he could come advantage her. Scot said it was the ultimate con. Mom and Scot do not rest until Moon is advantage to as she is so hard to get. They will wait to do Roger until I'm gone so I can cuddle him without risk of getting this stuff on me! Hope you had an easy day. Try to confirm the Wednesday job tomorrow before noon. I'm betting it will be canceled if the other side truly has an attorney now. I may try to get my hair trimmed somewhere tomorrow. Maybe Supercuts. I don't care. It's bugging me!

Happy, Happy Birthday, April!!!

Check out my page. That flower was from the pic Scot took of your yard!

April,

Thanks for writing me! I don't doubt that Jenny can say "no".....she seems pretty strong-willed from our discussions. However, she can't possibly be the Queen of "always right," that's my title and I REFUSE to give it up! ROFL

Three siblings all court reporters! OMG! How does the rest of the family manage to handle all of that stress when y'all get together???

Thank you! Nice to meet you as well. =)

I'm hoping this cheers you up tomorrow! If we lose power, I don't know what I'll do! I've got to get that Lopez job out! Not that he'll read it!!!

April, you should get an email when someone leaves a comment for you here. If not, let me know and I'll fix it! Keep the tension on the bike SUPER LOW!!!

Hey, April ~ thanks for adding your .2 unasked for cents :)) I have resisted using a scopist, you know the whole not wanting someone to look at your writing and realizing you're perfect LOL!! I've been reporting a long enough time, I think I should take the plunge, huh? It would be great to just send my transcript when it's done and then only have to proofread!! I need to get my feet wet. My only transcripts out right now, though, are really long over 200 pages, and one's 300+ ~ should I wait for a shorter one to try a scopist?
