But my husband was in the military for 12 years, and he was away quite a bit, so I had to take over the finances. When he was home and he was paying the bills, he would get so upset because he felt there wasn't enough money and "where does all the money go?" "why don't we ever have any left?" was all I heard. I finally told him I was taking them back over because I was sick of hearing that every month. I put everything on MS Money, categorize it, subcategorize it, and add memos, so if he wants to know exactly where the money is going, all he has to do is look.

Funny....he really hasn't complained a whole lot since.

I started last week as an IC for a small to medium MTSO.  I decided to work as an IC because I wanted flexibility in my schedule.   However, they insist on a set 40-hour schedule and working holidays, just like an FTE.   They are not paying me any benefits, not paying my taxes including SS, and I have run out of work 2 days already.  

Now I'm told I have to work either T-giving or Christmas - this really grates on me.  I get paid nothing extra for the holidays.  

I didn't think it was legal for them treat ICs like FTEs.  Has the working universe changed this much, or am I a sap for putting up with it?   I would really like to hear from other ICs who have faced the same situation -  please let me know how you handled it.  I cannot afford to quit without another job, which I am looking for.   TIA

My father died last year and he was a DNR and had a Living Will stating *no heroic measures* - at that point they oinly do *comfort care*.......

Very sorry for your experience!!!!!  *gentle hug*

I appreciate all of you who responded to my original post 3 weeks ago.    Physically I'm doing well with the recuperation from the miscarriage and subsequent D&C and the doctor told us that we can try to conceive again in a couple of months, which we will do.   

Emotionally it's still tough but getting better each day.  I miss the baby very much.   I'm keeping up the journal that I began during the pregnancy and writing my thoughts to the baby in heaven when I feel like it and  it helps to know I'm communicating my thoughts to our baby.  I'm actually able to say the words "I had a miscarriage" this week without bursting immediately into tears.  My husband continues to be very supportive and we both shed tears together at times over our loss.    Our friends, family  and church family have been incredibly supportive and that helps tremendously and we've definitely felt their support through their prayers and expressed concern. 

For any of you who encounter a woman who has had a miscarriage in the future, the best thing you can do is be there for them and show genuine concern.

I'm just a tad southwest of Bangor, maybe 3 exits south off 95.  I love Acadia but not during tourist season!  I think Orono is nice--college townish if you're into that scene.  I feel old and crusty when I go there, so I don't.  I just spent the day in Bangor because we've been without power for 24 hours and just got it back on mere minutes ago.  Crazy T-storms here yesterday! 

Welcome to Maine and sorry your vacation is turning out to be so crappy.  Mine always do to, which I why I haven't taken one in...oh....5 years now! 

yesterday i took my son to ball practice to see if he wanted to join.  the friend i talked about in this post, his mom was there.  (i knew the boy played ball, that's why my son wanted to play ball too).  so i told my son that we'd go watch and see if that's what he wants to do.  so i'm sitting there talking with the mom and i told her that i was a little scared of my son playing football because of getting hurt, etc.  that he had already had two broken bones.  she said that her husband (the dad that kicked the dog), has had several broken bones, from wrecks and she said when he was younger, he used to fight (like street fighting type stuff, not boxing).  but she said that he doesn't do that any more, we grow up as we get older.  i thought to myself, i guess he just beats up dogs now.  i'm going to check into what rescue groups are around here.  it's very obvious these dogs don't go to the vet for checkups.  even if there is no child abuse going on, the kids are going to think it's ok to hurt animals.

thanks for your opinions
