I got the same deal with my ex.  He wouldn't leave me alone because he wanted his beloved 3 bedroom ranch house. 

I gave him the house (with my teeny share of equity) and moved into a teeny apartment with my 2 kids. HUGE bedroom bathroom and living room, teeny kitchen, great neighborhood.  We all bunked in the same bedroom as there was room for a double bed, single bed and a crib with enough room left over to dance and play with toys.  My kids were 5 and 2.   We loved that place and it's probably because we finally had some peace and some fun.

My ex did the same thing.  He accused me of  moving my kids to the "projects" because I wasn't good enough to give them a nice home like the one he had.  He still has that house and he lives in it alone and has for nearly 20 years.  The last girflriend lasted 6 years and finally gave up on him.

He gave up on his kids almost 10 years ago and they gave up on him the day we moved into the "projects." 

Best move I ever made.  Happily married now for 13 years with 2 more kids that are considered my older kids' brother and sister, though their donor dad always insisted on calling them "half".  "He's not your brother, he's your half-brother."

Idiot

Be strong, hang in there and don't give in. 

P.S.  I wasn't looking for another man, I just got lucky I guess.  He does forget to take the trash out sometimes though. 

but I live in the northeast and not much need for that where I live.  I also live in a small town so that limits my options.  I have spent the last couple of years as a substitute teacher to supplement my MT job and just completed 4-1/2 months as a long term sub which I enjoyed and was a change of pace from MT.  The only problem is as a sub or ed tech you only get paid during the school year so I would have to keep my MT job for summers and school vacations.  With the way things are going in the MT world I hate to rely solely on that.  I don't want to find myself without any job whatsoever.   

Thanks for all the responses.    

Many, many dance studios offer adult classes in levels from beginner to professional. I've taken tons of them. I will be signing up again as soon as we can afford it! Where are you located?

Hope this helps!

I know that years ago Dictaphone had a hand-controlled pedal which I had used.  You might want to contact the Dictaphone Company and find out if this option is still available. 

As far as I know, you cannot hook a C-phone pedal to your computer.  However, I may be wrong about that; although I would think if it could be done it would be quite complicated. 

Another option you might want to think about is to re-record your dictations to your computer and play them back as .wav files.  This can be done through the sound recorder with a connection that you can buy at Radio Shack for about $20.  I have done this in the past and though the sound quality was not the best, I could still hear and understand the dictations. 

my, but you are a vindictive person aren't you.  Like I said, if you don't mind a background check, go for it. 

If you hire a painter/plumber/handyman and do a background check, you will have to do the work yourself.

I'm out of here.

My son, now 15, had major problems with reflux when he was baby that wasn't "corrected" until he got really sick.  He would vomit what appeared to be every ounce of formula he took in.  The doctors told me to put rice cereal in his formula and then put him on his stomach on a bed pillow so that the formula would stay down.

Yeah, right.  Just ended up washing more blankets and bed pillows.  It wasn't until he was 5 months old that someone finally did something.  Poor guy had pneumonia.  We took him to the ER and he spent 4 days in the hospital.  The diagnosis was pneumonia from aspiration.  He was vomiting so hard that he was sucking the formula down into his lungs.

While at the hospital, he had a barium swallow ultrasound that showed that the opening into his stomach (sorry brain cramp for the med term) did not close after eating.  They put him on Reglan (metoclopramide). I was told that this medication relaxes the spasms in the stomach opening so that it will close properly.  I was told that most children will grow out of it before they are 3 and that some will have it longer or may require surgery.  My son was on this medication until he was 5 or 6.

My son still gets occasional heartburn at 15, but it's very rare. It's usually when he eats something like a whole pepperoni pizza, which is to be expected.

Sorry I took so long, but my advice to you, if you haven't already done so, is to talk to your pediatrician about a gastro consult or ask your pediatrician to order a barium swallow, etc., etc.  The medication your child is on only quiets the symptoms and obviously isn't curing the real problem.

As sick as your child is, there is something wrong with this picture.

Good luck!
