Hi everybody... I didn't drop off the face of the earth, though it sure feels like it. In early December, I started a medical transcription course and it's kicking my butt. It's a diploma course, 18 months, and I'm learning about medicine, not just transcription. 8)
On top of that, my son is being the anti-christ... tantrums at the drop of a hat, defiant, controlling, manipulative. He's 8. I'm doomed.
I'm still dropping by once or twice a week... hit and run posting, I guess.
Hope everyone is doing well after the first month of the year. :lol:

I think it's great you are still hitting it hard with the medical transcriptionist courses....medical things can get rather difficult. I think the 8 year old thing is typical. I was rather a pain at that age. Good luck with everything and don't feel bad about not being around all the time. I've been somewhat of a hit and run poster myself lately...yourself and family first, forums later. Good luck, I know you'll do great!

Good luck with all that! LOL!
Medical transcription is tough, but it's a good job and is steady work. Eight year olds are a whole other thing!
I hear Tazer is coming out with a kid-friendly version.... :lol:

Thanks for the giggles, you two... I really needed it. Today is a me-day... I'm off to the scrapbook store for 15 hours of scrapbook therapy... and I have over $350 in credit at the store, so I'll get some retail therapy as well. Woohoo! :lol:

Hey rlrose328 - keep up the hard work! Kids - yeah. My 6yo is becoming angst-ridden. Its down-right weird. The 4yo is developing a lot of attitude (which I'm sure she gets from her mom :wink: ). You have my empathy....
