Yes, get a copy of your entire file for sure. You just don't know how easy/hard it will be to get it after he leaves. can you explain this? I don't get what happened: They were abrupt with you because why? Did you question them on something they did so they got pissy? My mom is also a patient of my oncologist (he's a hematologist, as well). When she was there in June, she made an appointment for me to see him and was given the prescription/order for a PET/CT scan for me to have prior to the appointment (which is next week). When I called to schedule the scan, I received a call back from the radiologist office saying my doctor's office did not have a copy of the order on file. I called the dr's office, explaining I have the order in hand and was not sure what was going on. Without verification from oncology office, no scan will take place. After a long, miserable conversation with one of the office staff, whom I have known for the 14 years I've been seeing this doc, she basically said they order was from 2010; it was whited out and date changed by the office manager (who just happened to be on vacation right now) and was given to my mom for me, "out of the kindess of their heart" but was basically worthless. Another assistant in the office told me the day before, I could not come in for the visit, until after the scan took place, because they needed the results... It became a conversation of "she said, you did, blah blah blah" because I hadn't been in for almost 3 years. I totally understand and took responsibility for not coming in for my follow ups, BUT now that I was and have the order for the scan, that is DATED JUNE 11, 2014, and an appointment, I wasn't sure of the issue that was being created? Why did they give my mom an order for the scan to give to me, if this wasn't ok?? This is my main issue... I also can't get a straight answer as to whether I am to proceed with the scan I have scheduled and then see the doctor or what?? Her answer, "if you want to go and they'll do it, that's up to you"....""We have an appointment on July... do you want it or not?" Things are very busy here because after September Dr. isn't even going to be here anymore..." This is how I found out he was leaving! I was mortified! I finally got myself together to go and get the scan and appointment and now this! If you are finding it hard to follow this conversation, so am I!! I could get no answer as to what the big deal was, why did they give me the order for the scan if it's not ok to go (which I have had PET scans every year for follow up except for during my choice not to go over the past few years)?? It's just become a huge cluster...and of course, now, I'm ready to just say forget it, I'll continue going without going... I did ask for my dr. to call me last night after he was finished with patients, but I didn't hear from him. The office staff I spoke with yesterday left a message for me this am saying he had gotten my message but had a flight to catch and wants me to come in to see him next week. I don't want to go back into that office with her now! She was so condescending! I still have no idea if I can go get the scan first, I ask to see him at his other office because I am no longer comfortable with her, and she laughed and said, "good luck with that". I am filing a complaint with the hospital, but regardless of all of that, it's just become a messed up situation. I need a new doctor because I can't let one person who isn't even the oncologist keep me from my follow ups Holy cow, that is messed up! Some people just should NOT be working with the public! I hope you get everything ironed out and find an awesome new doctor! Congratulations on being cancer-free for so long!

Yep, rude and the car was beyond rude. Did they stop since you asked them to stop short-cutting?
The elder neighbor is probably bored and helping out when she can. She's from a generation when everyone knew each other on the block and it wasn't considered odd to help each other. My dh occasionally mows our next-door or across-the-street's lawn and it's not unusual to have them edge ours or blow the leaves. (all of our yards are TINY!)

Well, that was pretty easy to find - it was PinkMochas and .Megan that were doing it. It looks like on 10/31/13, the last post of the thread, PinkMochas said it was the last day for submissions.
Here's the thread

I must have been 3, based on where we lived. I was eating Cheerios at the kitchen table and my mom and I watched a helicopter crash in the field behind our house. I can still see it clearly. My other memory from that age was my mom making pancakes for all the kids on our block, we were having a pancake-eating contest. I barfed pancakes and have never been able to eat them since. I lost the contest.

Someone was working on Vol 4...did they make it over to this site? That was Squillen, she's not registered here under that name. I don't really know how far she got though, last I read was someone had mentioned we should do it, she volunteered to do everything then it kind of died.

I like my rice and salad mixed. mmmm I think it's just to get the salad dressing on my rice! Yes, I grew up with pork chops always served w/applesauce. My kids (well the one who's not a vegetarian) NEED applesauce with pork chops.

IF my customers liked pissy attitude employee, she'd be put on probation. Late employee would also be put on probation. Both would be fired if they didn't comply with their probation outline.
But if I had to fire one today, it'd be Pissy Attitude Employee.

Huh, this same thing happens to me and I have also always had low blood pressure! My dr's never knew/told me about them being related. When I used to (try) to run, I couldn't because the itching drove me insane! Dr. had no clue what caused it. My blood pressure is in the normal range now and I really wonder if it's actually high.

Maybe a special board for 2 peas classics, such as bellemagic's cookies and burning feather's beef? I like the 2Peas Classic idea. Not overkill at all IMO. I have a couple recipe threads saved that I would put there. I think they would just get lost in the individual boards over time. I have the pumpkin recipe thread which has desserts, pasta and side dish recipes and also the "give a recipe you get rave reviews on" which has all categories and is an awesome thread. I wouldn't be able to put either of these on an individual specific sub-board. I do like the slow cooker suggestion and also a lot of peas do the OMAC. Once a month cooking. Humm. what about a non-food recipe board. I have recipes for silly-putty, play-dough, magic crystals, soap, salt-dough for Xmas ornaments, natural bug repellant, dog biscuits, hair products, etc...

I agree. I bake chicken, a roast or lasagna but I would never look in the baking category for any of these. In my mind, baking=desserts.

I used to fly in a small Cessna for work a lot when I lived in Miami. I worked in a gun shop and didn't realize until later what shady stuff my boss was doing. I've flown from Bimini to Miami in a hurricane, had my door unlatch and open during a flight, and had a plane land on the same runway we were taking off on. We veered to the right like we were playing chicken. We generally flew in and out of small airports without manned towers. yea. shady.
My sister and brother were born on the same day, years apart and my husband's sister and brother were also born on the day.

I would use "The Smith and Jones Family". That's what I use on return-address labels, etc.
Our kids have my last name as their only middle name and their dad's last name as their last name.
When they were young, both wanted a "regular" middle name so I told them when they got to be 15 I would legally add a middle name of their choice. (I didn't want any Disney princess names so 15 seemed like a good age.) Neither of them wanted to add another name at that point and still don't - it comes up occasionally.
