The fact you did not file for divorce after your husband sent the
message board posts to his mom is shocking to me. The moment my husband took his mom over me would be his final moment in this relationship. All I have to say.
First of all, Jon and Kate did not have

octuplets.  They had 2 girls previously (I believe through fertility treatments) and then went on to have another fertility treatment, this time ending up with sextuplets. 


Secondly, they had the emotional and financial support to have these children.  I do not believe the taxpayers ever had to support their children.  Yes, I do believe they are using their children for financial gain now, but I don't believe they were forced to do so in order to care/provide for them. 


The main difference I see is that octomom already had 6 children that she couldn't care for and then went on to bring 8 more into it. 


Jon & Kate

I thought Kate seemed to be hinting at a specific problem that had been going on for a long time, but I don't think it is other women.  I think Jon might have a drinking problem.  I noticed that since they been being interviewed on the couch separately, his speech is slurred and he seems very lethargic.  Or maybe it is just severe depression because he never smiles anymore.  He used to be so light-hearted, even when Kate picked on him.


Jon and Kate show
I watch all the time. I definitely think they will divorce, but I hope not. Those kids are the cutest and I have followed them for years. I think they actually probably split months ago too as one of the little girls said she missed her dad. On earlier shows Kate was very obvious the one that ruled in the family, but with that many kids a person would have to organized to the hilt. Money has broken the family apart and one could tell from last season he did not want it to go on. I can see both sides. There is no way that either one of them would make the money doing what they did in the past. I do hope they can work things out, but I am so skeptical about them staying together. They did not hardly look at each other on the season opener last night and I cannot believe he did not meet them at Party City. Lots of this stuff is staged too, but it was very obvious he was probably not lilving at home anymore. Most of the other couples that have done Reality Shows have divorcing. I hope they work it out, but really doubt it. We all dream of lots of money like they are most likely getting, but they have basically become prisoners in their own home too. Its takes two to work it out and I am not so sure they can do it. It might just be too late. Everyone deserves a second change and we are not in their shoes, but if they did not do the show anymore they might make it work. Good luck and God prayers that it will work out for everyone.
Jon and Kate question. SM

Please don't bash me. Just sitting here typing and strange question enters my head.  I don't watch this show, but all the gossip about them makes me wonder, again, please don't bash me, did Kate have all those children just so she could have her own reality show?   I mean, who in their right mind has 6 children?  At one time?  I suppose all the stuff on Octomom got me wondering.


I'll go back to work now. 


Don't forget that Kate has also
been accused of cheating with her bodyguard. At least Jon is man enough to acknowledge that he made mistakes in their marriage which is something Kate did not do until last night with her fake tears. She also cheated on the boyfriend before Jon.

I quit watching the show after she insisted that she never had any help with the kids, prepared all meals, rarely took vacations as it was not in their budget and could not afford to and overall, very frugal. It came out that she had nannies, a personal chef, all vacations were paid for, cosmetic work paid for, 75,000 an episode, 3,000 speaking fee - seems she lies about a lot of things so why not cheating?

The way she made a fool of Jon was an outrage with her constant yelling and demaning way.

Should they divorce, I hope Jon gets full custody. Those kids are nothing but a meal ticket to her. She has exploited them from day one. I also heard that she put down another famly that had sextuplets - guess she is getting nervous but that family said they would never put their children in front of the camera.

I think the kids would have a stable life with Jon.
Anyone watch Jon & Kate last night?
It seems to be me that Kate is willing to give up her marriage for this new quasi-celebrity life style.  She kept saying over and over how everything she is doing is for her kids, but I really don't think so.  She's enjoying herself.  Jon wants to go back to his old life, said this isn't what he signed up for.  It's all very sad.
Good for Kate! Who needs a cheating man.

Term papers

Does anyone know the going rate for typing term papers nowadays?


Setting up papers we need right now
In our state we have to be incorporated, have agricultural license, etc. so right now waiting for all that to come back but keep none at my home, have fosters willing to keep. I am financing the costs, including the above, plus food and medicine for injections and the like. I only want 1 thing and that is to go get the doggies and/or cats- the others may want to charge a fee "once" they have their license- until then they can rescue but cannot charge a fee. We have rehomed several older doggies as well as puppies and I am a happy girl. Just holding those little babies this morning makes everything all worth while. I will just have to work more hrs, I guess!
Personally I like Kayla, Kate, and Katherine - nm

Yes. I was given papers after taking a kitten in for

You were not reading her state papers then if you think that
I read lots of the newspapers in Alaska during this time and they were ticked off to say the least because they felt they were being ignored amongst other things. Oh, about the nervousness, this was a perpetual thing with her- she must be scared stiff because all her interviews same mumbo-jumbo- no sense. Remember the "I can see Russia from my house."
Read your papers or watch Tnews on TV
Abuse happens everywhere. Case in point, lady in North Georgia just stabbed her 2 children to death yesterday. They were not in daycare. Your last statement sounds like people who say "Crime, I never thought it could happen in my community" when actually abuse/neglect happens in homes, daycares, everywhere. Oh, had you read earlier posts, I have children, grandchildren, too, raised them and they are self-sufficient, not like a bunch of the kids you see nowdays, thank goodness. Have done my job as far as children are concerned but never ever went into a job just so I could stay home to work, sounds like a real cop-out to me. I would surmise if others saw these posts, they would definitely not think of women writing them as professionals- working on a keyboard with 1 hand and changing diaper with the other, really professional! Sorry, have never met a supermom, just mothers who do what they should in the normal span of life.
It may be that your daughter is just nervous when she puts papers
in the folder because it sounds like she is being watched like a hawk.  No child needs that, especially at this very young age.  I don't blame you for being upset.  This can be damaging to a child.  I would take very little more, if any of that behavior from the teacher.  You have a right to go above her with this complaint.  Good luck!
No he is full blooded pit bull with papers...sm
But everyone thinks he has boxer in him. He has always looked like a boxer because of his color. Everybody thinks he is a boxer or boxer mix.
Get to Little Italy...bought 2 Coach handbags and 1 Kate Spade bag..
that just happened to *fall off a truck* for $125. Brought them both to Nordstrom, clerk could not tell the difference!
Read the papers, duh! People are losing their homes
for getting into this stuff.

Goes to show, you aren't that smart. Money in bank getting interest only. Come on lady, what planet do you live on? You are full of it. You are depending on the two most unstable things in the world right now. Talk about planning.
Because you can't file again for a while.
It has nothing to do with creditworthiness. It has to do with you not having a place to run and hide! lol

Did you file it yourself . . .
or have a company do it? If you had a company do it and had the fee taken from your refund instead of paying for it personally, then you will receive a mailed check. Check the schedule for mailed check.
No did not file myself, and yes, have
checked the IRS site -- should have been in the first batch to go out....so just wondered if i should worry. thanks.
My desk is about 6 inches high with papers =(. I have two labs & a yorkie on the floor next to me.
I wish I had time to clean my messy desk.  I work so much better in a clean office.
Make sure you have copies of all important papers, addresses for mortgage, insurance, etc.

When you file your taxes
NM
If you're asking and the love is long gone, it's time. Make copies of all important papers,

Well, because the company that has me on file is local, all I can do is sm
forward you to this legitimate website http://www.volition.com/mysteryUSA1.html

You will have to do a lot of legwork and contact the BBB, but it's worth it. Some are national, some are local. I am in south GA. So unless you are local, I can only forward you to this website. Good luck!
I'd count him out, and file the winnings.
As they say: you snooze, you lose. Boy, what a bunch of characters there though. LOL
Did the parents file or did the daughter?

I thought I had read that it was the daughter/Octuplet mom who had filed for bankruptcy. 


it took a while, not file, work on the brain-nm

what does your brother file yearly to the IRS?...nm
nm
file garnishment on bank account
so it hits his account the same day he deposits pay checks (usually Friday).
Can someone PLEASE HELP me find a deleted file in Word??? sm
Accidentally deleted file.  This was a file I was not currently working on.  Spent 1.5 hours transcribing Friday then deleted it this morning!!!  How sssstupid!  Can I possibly get it back???
We are in the same boat. First and foremost, file your taxes.
The penalties are huge if you file late. Once you file, it will take about a month, and they will send you a bill. We were able to get a 4-month extension, i.e., extending the due date of the balance. We only had to pay interest and some penalties for paying late - again a fraction of what it costs to file late. That did not cost anything. The next option was setting up a payment plan, and I think that cost $125 to set up plus the interest and penalties for paying late.

They really are not bad to work with, especially this year. I read an article where they have been instructed to work with people, especially in light of the bailouts for large companies. They are very respectful, much better than any creditor I have ever worked with, and as long as you are working with them, I think you'll be just fine.
need help giving a cote for an MP3 file that is 10 MB long. SM
So if I charge 15 cents per 65 character line, how would I go about giving a cost estimate for an MP3 file that is about 10 MB long? Anyone?? Thanks.
File for bankruptcy protection if you have equity in your home
dd
File in small claims court locally
it's about $25 and that fee will be reimbursed you when you win your case. They will get the money from them - that is the only way I know to recoup your loss. You need to do it legally through the court system.
Check the file size... it might be a very small JPEG - sm
so that they'll download/upload faster, and won't overwhelm the website with huge files. To get a less-grainy photo, try asking your daughter to email you the full-size file so you can save it to your computer for printing. For the best print quality, you want lots of pixels.... for example something like 1200 x 1800... to show the best detail. Then use your photo-editing software to make it whatever size you want for printing.

When I save photo files to my PC, I usually know right away which ones I want to email (so I change them from large .bmp files to small .jpg files (around 75-200 pixels). If I'm going to be printing them, I just save them as large .bmp files. (When they're large they also come out better if you're going to Photoshop them.... clean up backgrounds, crop, etc.) If I want to email one of the .bmp files to someone later, I can always make it smaller and then copy it as a .jpg file for email purposes. (That way it doesn't take them half an hour to download one photo!)

After the 2 weeks I have had with my buyer I would recommend you file a dispute as a not as describe
My seller took 35 days to finally mail, sent me invalid UPS tracking number, package was 6 books short and books were in deplorable condition and I filed a 'not received' too early cuz then he mailed and now I cannot file 'not as described' as you can only file one complaint per purchase.... so I'm screwed unless he agrees to accept return.... but thinking he will probably take my money, the books and run - only 25 feedback so new seller... I'm talking with Paypal now and may file with my credit card company next week - not quite sure I understand chargeback programyet

Been there. You hit the nail right on the head -- his drinking overpowers or affects every aspect of your life, and your childrens' lives. Every day, every minute. Most people can't comprehend the constant stress that puts on a family. He's absolutely miserable with his drinking, and wants everybody around him to be as miserable as he is. Tired of walking on the eggshells and sick of the promises that mean nothing? I know I was! Drunks tell you what they think you want to hear to buy them more time. You need peace in your lives for once. You need to be able to predict what your day is going to be like when you wake up in the morning, and so do your kids. I hope it is a 'friendly' divorce for you. You may hurt his ego more than anything else. Good luck to you. I'll be keeping good thoughts for you. I will tell you this -- when my ex left after 12 years, my children and I finally felt like we could BREATHE.
Just let me know about the divorce! nm

Me, too, Freebie - I absolutely despised the man after 17-1/2 yrs., got divorced. He had the nerve to die 5 yrs. later. Had I stayed, I would be on easy street now instead of wondering whether to pay the phone bill, the electric bill or pay for Christmas or charge it. If I only knew then what I know now - haunting isn't it?
Divorce

My children were 14 and 11 at the time of my divorce, they are now 24 and 21 and are happy productive adults that any mother would be proud of. Not to say it wasn`t a very hard thing to go through, but all the fighting is very hard on the children to. I remember my daughter telling me that if I was to ever take her dad back she would be very mad at me, what does that tell you, if your children are old enough, talk to them about their feeling and fears.


Also, their dad got in their in there head and promised them all kinds of things that never came to past, to get them to stay with him so he didn`t have to pay child support,so be ready for that to, but as I said it didn`t take my daughter long to figure that all out, now she is grown and married and her and her dad hardly speak, which breaks my heart, it not fair that a child should have to do without either parent. Anyway I could go on about this subject all night cause it is a heartbreaking thing for all involved.


But you are the only one that know if it`s worth hanging on to.


my prayer`s go out to you in whatever you decide.


After my divorce
and my 45th birthday, it seems like everything changed for me. Things I thought were important, aren't anymore. I don't care about what I have, I'm more interested in what I've done, or more specifically, haven't done yet. Even my politics have changed some. Life changes you. Its like Character Remodeling as we mature.

I've always been suspect of anyone over 45 who tells me that they have no regrets in life. Have they lived life with eyes wide open? Nothing could have been made better?

In some ways, if you aren't evolving and changing, is it possible that you are not living? Great question.
divorce
It takes time. Be extra kind to yourself, seek support if you need to. It does get better, trust me. I am now in a place where I'm happiest I've ever been. I'm still alone but independent and free!
Divorce
I divorced my first husband when my children were 1 and 3. He was a crack addict. It wasn't easy but it was the right decision for me. I would definitely suggest going to Al-Anon. I didn't make it there until quite a few after my divorce, but it helped me a great deal. Best of luck with your decision.

If you are going through with the divorce,
it will come out when you list assests, debts, etc.

I always think it is funny when women think divorce is the best thing for everyone and will make everyone happy.

Kids need two parents whether you are divorced or not, not a counselor to straighten him out.
Divorce
My jerk of a husband told me I have less than 2 weeks to move out -- that he spoke with a lawyer -- personally I don't think he has, but is this legal?  My name is not on our home, but I have my own car in my own name, which I pay for and he has a set of keys-- refuses to give them back to me.  I have about $80.00 to my name these days until payday.  You know how it is with MT work -- living paycheck to paycheck.  What can I do?  Is there free legal help for women?

Amicable divorce, can it be done?....sm

It's time DH and I end our marriage. It's not a good situation for any of us. Long story short, DH thinks it is me because I'm a miserable B**ch. All I know is DH is an alcoholic, which overpowers everything, so I have no idea, in all honesty, what lies beneath. The kids and I pretty much know every morning when we get up that today will end like every other day with dad coming home after his six pack +, feeling guilty, looking for imperfections in everyone else to gripe about to avoid the fact that he's drunk once again, and no mater how much we try, in the end, in an argument.


I'm mad at DH for choosing the alcohol over his family, I'm angry at myself for staying longer than I should have, etc., etc., etc.


I've decided the bottom line is that I want healthier, more peaceful, and more productive lives for myself and my kids. In the best interest of my children, he is their father and no matter how much hostility I feel towards him, the best thing for my children is that neither of their parents ends up destroyed or broke over the divorce. Basically, I want to remain focused on the goal of providing a better life to myself and my children, including not contributing to the destruction of their father. My suspicion is he is going to end up destroying himself anyway, but I honestly don't want to force that to happen. The optimal outcome for the kids would be to end up with two emotionally stable and financially secure parents. Is it possible to end the marriage without destroying the kids?  Is it possible to stay focused on the ultimate goal of having a more peaceful and satisfying life for you and the kids and to just let go of anything that does not make a positive contribution toward that effort?  Has anyone successfully managed an "amicable" divorce, or at least as amicable as possible?  I've already wasted 15 years on a marriage I knew all along was never going to be successfull no matter how much I  wanted it to be. Any advice?
