Yes, they do. 10-month teachers make more than 9-month
teachers. I know that for a fact. One of my sisters was a 9-month, one is a 10-month. They are compensated for working more scheduled hours.
Yes, especially if you are on a month-to-month basis
My mother had rental properties and has evicted tenants twice because her daughter (sis) decided she wanted to live there. Those tenants were pretty upset at the time too, because they didn't want to move. A landlord isn't required to have a reason for taking back their property or raising the rent. They will likely give you a good reference since you're been a good tenant.
A year after Katrina, all the landlords on the Gulf Coast decided to double or triple their rent, just because they could. Due to the housing crisis rents are going to continue to rise, because more people are losing their homes and looking for apartments. Its all about supply and demand.
The bright side is that working at home allows you to live "anywhere", so you could see this as an opportunity to move somewhere completely different. That's what I did, and I haven't regretted it.
If it is a month-to-month lease -
If there is no signed lease stating a specific time (1 yr, 2 yr, etc.) then it is implied as a month-to-month least and either the tenant or LL can terminate at any time.
I would look for a place pronto if I was the OP.
And she should get another job pronto too if the one she got ain't paying the bills. No reason to let it go on month after month, paycheck after paycheck, until you are in the street, that is just plain stupid.
If she is getting evicted --- there is more to this story I believe.
I'm sorry, I don't, but if she hasn't seen
a rheumatologist, I'd try to get her in with one. I hear the wait around here is a long one. I would definitely get people praying for her.
no he sure hasn't
but that's it
It hasn't too much, except in the 401(k)...
We are debt free but the house, the payment only requires one of DH's paychecks (he gets paid twice a month and then on the off weeks he gets his overtime check) or my paycheck for the month when I can get my lines in, we have never taken out a second mortgage or touched the equity in our home. Our mortgage rate is low to mid 5%, cars paid off, CC paid in full, great credit score and we live below our means. We still take vacations, eat in restaurants, etc. Our circle of friends don't seem to have any problem with this economy, other than investments. We are in our late 40s, early 50s, kids grown and gone, we don't pay for college. DH drives 66 miles round trip to work, but has an economical commuter care. Our SUV gets about 20 to 24 mpg, which compares to some newer ones out there.
My DH has worked for the same company for 25 years, however, layoffs are coming, and he is putting out his resume just in case. He will get a nice severance package, etc, if it happens, but we are planning in advance just in case. House is up for sale, a few very interested people, and if it sells we will make enough profit to buy a house free and clear.
We have always lived below our wage and I think that has helped us tremendously. Do we want new cars, TVs, etc, sure, but why bother, we don't want the payments that come with them. We are happy with what we have, don't have a lot of the gimmes or wantitis that has a lot of Americans in debt up to their eyballs with no way out.
Mine hasn't, but I went and got a
IUD (5-year Mirena, not copper) put in because I, like you, did not want to make that decision to never have kids again even though I am happy with the 2 I have.
The doctor and information they give you says that the IUD is as effective as getting your tubes tied. I have had no side effects and really almost don't even have a period now. If he decides against getting one, I would really suggest looking into something like this. It only cost me my co-pay of $20 to have it put in too.
If it hasn't faded yet, it probably won't but
the shades are usually based on your natural shade, not what color it is at the time.
The dark blonde should be fine, but just make sure to keep checking it because the longer you leave it in the lighter it will get. If your gray is already covered then you can ignore the extra time you are supposed to leave it on for that. Hope this helps!
P.S. For anyone who hasn't seen him perform sm

It hasn't been long
No, I gained the weight during the time I was in pain and my uterus was swelling out of control (hormones), so most of the 3rd year post ablation. I had a lap supracervical hysterectomy with left oophorectomy (ruptured large complex cyst) on a Monday- up shopping in Walmart on Wednesday, taking care of my kid at home, too.
Since the surgery (which was only a few months ago), I have been able to change my diet and have lost 1 dress size, but haven't added exercise. If I did that, I know I could get the rest of the weight off. I'm moving next month to a place with walking trails built into the community and I hope to take advantage of that.
I do honestly believe the ablation accelerated my hormones, but like I said, everything about my body is extreme, so I'm the 1 patient in a million you hear about. When my doc first offered me the ablation, she told me that in my case, I would end up needing the hysterectomy anyway, but because I was so young the ablation would buy some time. She even said it probably would only give me 3 years before needing the hysterectomy, and her timing was exactly right.
Oh, and I have not had a need for HRT although I do have 3 hairs on my chin now (groin).
If this hasn't be mentioned before (sm)
Chances are the school has a policy regarding this. If not, the child/parent may have some recourse.
Generally school policies supercede general law and rights, i.e. search and seizure regarding lockers (they can go in them as they please).
I'm thinking if they imposed such a stiff penalty, they can back it up lawfully. It really matters not if we think it is right or wrong. If it's school policy (approved by the school board) and stated in the handbook every student gets at the beginning of the semester, then that's the bottom line.
Actually I do this already :( hasn't worked (nm)

Exactly - why hasn't Richard aged?
Or did they think showing him with longer hair when Ben was young would make him look young, too? Well, it didn't. He looks exactly the same. And does he wear eyeliner?? (Richard)
Ben is definitely twisted. I am sure Juliet is aware of his history and that is why she does not like him and shows no loyalty to him, other than just enough to keep him thinking she is still on his side. I don't know why she and Jack had to keep that secret from the rest of the group, though. If they had just said, hey, Ben is a psychopathic megalomaniac and he would kill Juliet in a hot minute if he thought she had turned on him, so she's playing along until we can take care of him, well, I think the group would have supported them. Now there are all kinds of hurt feelings and jealousy and divided loyalties. But I guess that's the point - drama, drama, drama.
And what kind of hold does Ben have over Richard and the others? It sounds like he is as afraid of Jacob as everybody else.
This just occurred to me - a lot of Polynesian islanders believe there is a god in volcanoes that makes the lava spew out when he is angry. What if there really is one? Named Jacob, maybe?
Just a WAG. 
Time to see the vet, especially if she hasn't had initial

Book-in-bag still hasn't moved.
Except now it has a drillbit sitting on top of it for some reason....
She needs to apply for scholarships if she hasn't already.
My daughter did that and with the multiple scholarships that she got it covers nearly all of her cost and I pay the difference.
Mine's almost 47, hasn't changed. nm

He hasn't hit my child in 8 years, because (sm)
he knows I would turn him in. Has not hit me in 3 for the same reason. My pastor is giving me some resources and contact people to help me get out, not encouraging me to stay by any means. I don't go to that kind of church.
It hasn't effected by routine....sm
Not like a do a lot of beauty routine anyway seeing as how I work at home, but when I do put on makeup and stuff I haven't changed anything.
Why hasn't that hospital adopted the *Time Out*
The entire surgical team is involved in the *Time Out* and *Pause for the Cause* (called different things in different states). All involved in the surgery standing in the OR at that moment must be in agreement on confirming the correct patient, correct procedure, correct site of procedure, correct position of the patient, etc.
I went in for surgery and they asked me multiple times to repeat my name and the procedure I was coming in for as I went through multiple rooms on the gurney.
That is really scary that these types of errors are still going on.
Obviously, that is a hospital I wouldn't even take my dog to.
He hasn't lost a thing! Awesome performance!
I've always loved Prince and was not disappointed by his performance at the Super Bowl. Best halftime show I've seen in a long time (blew out Janet Jackson AND no wardrobe malfunctions!)
Hayseed, it hasn't changed my mind about little dogs
At the moment I am considering a one-year-old Papillon/Pomeranian mix that someone is giving away because she has a toddler and two dogs and lives in an apartment. It will be about a month or so before I will even begin the process, because we have to get my son settled at his new college first.
What Fox's health problems have done is made me aware of what to look for in a small dog, and what to have a veterinarian check for before I choose another dog. Fox was so stoic - he almost never complained, despite all the surgeries and pain he went through. I don't want to see another dog go through that kind of pain. It just breaks your heart.

buy every month
Melaleuca products you have to buy 35 products points each month to keep your account. Which is anywhere from $40 a month to whatever you want to buy. You don't necessarily have to work the business part you can earn a check each month without actually signing up any customers. Customers will be put under you by other people and you will be making money off of the products that they buy. That is waht my mother does. She isn't in it for the business she just loves the products and still gets a check each month
$347 per month

Don't go out to eat except maybe once a month.
It's amazing how much money you will save by doing all the cooking yourselves at home and brown-bagging lunch. This includes those $2 cups of coffee here and there every day--really adds up fast!
Keep your goal somewhere in site...literally slapping a picture of your dreamhouse on the fridge or some place you'll be reminded every day of why you are making the sacrifices you are making. Good luck! 
Since you have a month, why don't you
get together and do a pic of the team or even a few and frame it! I'm sure he'd like that. You can even go to one of those machines, have it blown up and have it say something special down below.
Also, they like gift cards to the local convenience store. Everyone could use a gift of "gas" especially when they are volunteers...
Happy sporting! Glad you had a great coach!
Ours is usually between $200-$250 per month.
Our electric company has some of the highest rates in the country...lucky us! Our bills usually go up a bit in the summer from using the air conditioning and running the pump for our pool. Electricity is definitely our highest utility bill!
Don't have your mammo at the end of the month, then.
Or it will hurt. Schedule it when they aren't painful. I've had it before, but I took evening primrose oil capsules for maybe six months. No more trouble.
Won't the be surprised next month
This happened to an older friend of mine. Poor thing couldn't get another policy to save her life, and it wasn't a cosmetic issue, it was like entire siding pieces that flew off of her house. Oh, they and came fixed it, then they dropped her like a bad disease. They'd better be careful. Just a friendly warning... I don't know if I'd let the homeowner's insurance in on that deal, I'd cut my losses and replace the carpet.
TOM = Time of the month (sm )
Was trying to be a little modest - sorry!
Just in Vegas about a month ago
Go there a lot, the Flamingo is catty-corner to the Bellagio where we have stayed the last 2 times there. Know where it is because I went to a show there. Older place, smoky, they have real flamingos out in the back with ducks, etc, been there but not to stay. Toni Braxton headlining there and George Wallce comedian there now. Know what I talk about.
I've had it about a month, it's almost gone (sm)
Dr. gave me an inhaler for the anti-inflammatory properties and a decongestant. I keep debating whether to go back but it is so low grade...I will probably wait another week or so and see if it goes away. Hope you feel better soon.
2- month window
and then there won't even be a way to give a bad rating of the dealer.
Will you come and live with me for a month or so? nm

wow you pay 350 a month for a HOUSE?
lucky duck, I pay 465 a month for a rented townhouse
Last month I spent $321 for 3 of us.
It's just DH, 18 year-old son, and I. We live in the Philadelphia area. We generally eat far less meat than most American families, but we aren't vegetarian. My son commutes to a nearby university and works there, as well. He provides his own lunches, and probably only eats breakfast at home half of the time.
Now, if you want to factor in what we pay for the meal plan for our son who lives away at college, well then... that's a whole other story! KA-CHING!
My 10 month old, Starr, does that, too.
I actually have pictures of her sitting in front of the TV in the office watching Animal Planet, Kung Fu Panda, and Transformers. I can see her tracking the action with her head and every once in a while she'll bat at the tv screen with her paw.
It's the cutest thing.
$250 a month is average for us.
We live in a TINY 1-bd condo and pay an average of $250 a month. We don't use heat or air and have quit using our dishwasher and have decreased our hot water usage. We unplug everything we are not using. We have been able to knock about $75 off our bill by doing these few things. Right now the only electricity we use is for our appliances (fridge, stove, etc.), lights only at night and when we absolutely need them, and for the TV and computer. We are seriously looking into solar as soon as we buy our new home as the electric rates here are crazy and can't imagine what it would be if we lived in a larger home.
I did about a month ago. There are other options.
Workin at the Q. Money is real tight.
But there are internet sites like Hulu where you can watch TV shows for free. Also at least I know on NBC who can watch some TV shows on there for free, too. Just about any news channel you can watch recorded news stories and sometimes even live if something major is going on.
Also, I found on YouTube that you can watch shows and movies. They have started putting commercials on them, though (same with Hulu). But who cares, you would have to see them on cable TV, anyway.
There are actually a ton of internet sites. I actually got into watching old *Kojak* reruns on Hulu (I know, but I liked that show back when.) They have a ton of old shows.
There is also Netflix or Redbox - you can get the cheaper options for movies.
I can watch my local news on the internet, too.
So, just seek out what options are out there for you. I figure even if it is only temporary (I have some job interviews this week) I can still watch things on TV but on the internet until things are better.
Honestly though, I will have to think about that because I haven't missed my cable TV not one bit.
Tell him you want $100 a month of that $180 he gets for rent. nm

changing your OB in the last month of pregnancy?
I was just wondering if anyone here had any experience with changing your OB in the last month of pregnancy? Or if anyone knows anyone who changed their OB late in pregnancy?
Without going into too many details, my OB was away on a personal emergency this week and her partner was not in the office due to the holiday. I was having some problems this week and I needed an OB on Friday. I called but my OB's office only had a recorded message. There was no answering service. So I stuck it out until Satruday and went to the emergency room at the hospital where I was supposed to be delivering this baby. The Triage Nurse at the hospital was so awful and mean to me that I burst into tears and stormed out of there. She didn't flat out refuse me medical attention, but she gave me such a hard time about being there that she made me feel very uncomfortable, and in so many words she forced me out. She was the nastiest most unprofessional person I have ever dealt with in the healthcare industry. DH agrees.
So now DH and I are totally turned off to that hospital and I don't feel comfortable at all delivering there. Fortunately for us, we have 2 other excellent hopsitals close to our house. The problem is, my OB only delivers out of the hospital where I had this incident. So I was thinking of changing back to my old OB for the end of the pregnancy. He delivered my nephew and my sister said she liked him and had no problems with him. But he has not dealt with me pregnant. I just went to him for 2 annual checkups several years ago, then decided to change over to my current OB because my sisters and friends raved about her.
And it's really been a textbook pregnancy -- no problems with me or the baby. He would just need my records sent to him, and he'd need to know that I will be a scheduled c-section. Really at this point all I need is for someone to go in there and get the baby out for me.
Any advice? Do you think he would refuse my case since I'm 35 weeks already? The whole incident is unfortunate, and I love my OB, but I am so turned off to the hospital that I'd be willing to go with another OB just to be able to deliver out of another hospital where we'll feel comfortable and taken care of.
a month is tooo long.....sm
My Paps are supposed to be back to my doc around a week. The last time I had not heard, so I called and left a message that I wanted the results of my Pap ASAP. I got a call within a couple of hours and the nurse was very apologetic that I had not heard from them. You have been patient long enough! This is your health and being a MT has nothing to do with it....if anything, being an MT makes us more aware of how some docs drag their feet on tests results and how others are very prompt with reporting these. You make that call again and let it be known you want a call today with results.
Is this for 1 month? Just January 2007?
