Question #1:

dream interpretations: Drowning & Car Theft?

hubby had a dream back in december 1st one:
was at the swimming with our kids, our youngest went under he managed to pull the older one out no lifeguard in sight, suddenly someone came and pulled her out.

2nd dream:
His car was stolen from the driveway he looked and looked and finally he found it in a neighbors yard and got recovered.

these happened days apart. we thought it was relating to his "identity" (based on dream interpretation websites) but more relating to faith because he was working on the sabbath. he said after the new year he'd stop.

recently hes been acting strange, not himself and out of the blue he's asking for a divorce (origionally wanted to see a marriage councellor but i called his friend a name ... as i found her in my house when i got home from work Right after he said I had 90 days to make a change or he was leaving. of course I wasnt going to be nice to her because this happened out of the blue and they met at the olympics and thats when he started avoiding my calls. he earlier mentioned something was his cry for help. we were gonna work stuff out after he was making arguments over tiny things that didnt make sense - he started getting angry at me so I said i didnt want him bring that ___ around. he flipped out (he's never defended me that way against his family who badmouth me!) so of course what else am i supposed to think?)

anyways i realized the dream more relates to what is currently happening. hes moved out. I had a sense this was a spiritual battle as like i said all his priorities and things he valued changed overnight. I was wondering if someone could shed some better light on this? i read elsewhere drowning and dying meant loss of a business or relationship (we have a business together)

But I was wondering - if my daughter AND the car in both dreams after searching and searching got recovered ... wat do you think that represents? (havent found anything regarding "recovering" of things like this)

I dont know if it means getting rid of me will make him find himself again? or he will find himself AND the relationship will be restored? we've been together for about 6.5 years and married for barely 6 months! I cant afford the house on my own or the kids school so i might have to pull them out.

would love it if anyone had any answers so i can plan one way or the other! thanks for reading my super long details!
thanks so much for that. that is really heart breaking to hear. when guys have drifted to another girl I've usually had dreams about it. both times they've come clean and didnt actually do anything but it was dangerously close. one was the ex and the other was hubby. (back in the early days) so far no dreams yet. (yay) after realizing our fights was not emotionally/physically and realizing that it may be more spiritual (he stopped coming to church) i realized that may be why hes not himself (everyone's noticed friends family etc.) and if hes lost sight and not there (not his true self) then If the worst did happen I did tell him I'd forgive him. we're been through a lot and I think if we get through this bump it'll make us stronger. as it has in the past. =)

Question #2:

Question #6:

How to use kitchen cabinets for an office?

Ok, so I have seen many people use kitchen cabinets for a work station (in their kitchens) with a desk-like area. I am trying to translate that same idea into my office at home (i am starting my own business and need a large workable area and dont have a very large budget). I am just wondering if anyone can give me some pointers on how to do this.
So my local hardware store sells unfinished oak base cabinets for pretty cheep (about $80 each) and that is what I would like to use.
My questions are:
What could I use for the top of the desk..could I just use wood?
If so, what type/thickness should I use?
How do I attach the top to the base cabinets?
Do I attach the top to the wall? (i know you attach the cabinets to the wall)

Any other tips or ideas would be great!
Thanks!

Question #8:

Possible to rent while awaiting full time job (college grad, economy)?

Hello! In may 09 i graduate with a bachelors in business. I was job searching for a long time and i've been lucky to have a gained work experience in the retail industry for 6 months. I live in Raleigh, NC for that period and in bit of a pickle. My sister and i rent an apt for about 800 and i pay 300 of it. She lost her job and looking again (dumb/jealous boss) (health ed grad). We gave a 60 day notice to leave the apt if nothing comes open for her. So it's first time out the nest and i want to survive and stay up here until i find a full time for my degree. Do you think it's possible to stay here and rent an apt for 400-550 working part-time? My hours are picking up this week starting a new position with 40 hrs at same pay $8.00. My cell phone payment $55, 2 school loans temporary lowered at total of $90 until Nov. And eventually i hope to start paying my car notes (dad bought and paying now). There are no jobs back home (small town near military base). PLEASE GIVE YOUR HONEST ADVICE AND EXPERIENCE. Is it possible with groceries, small leisure, sneaking my cat in ($12 every 2 weeks for food/litter) and etc.?
And to add: Getting a 2nd part time because my new position will be from 7am-3pm 40 hrs a week. If i have to..

Question #10:

whats a good Home based business or job that does not require a 39.99 fee that is not a scam?

I have been scammed so many times pleae reply with good answeres or places.
thank you so much

Question #11:

Is this why we bailed out the banks?

Janitor Facing Eviction Cleans Up After CEO Whose Bank Bought Her House. Click Here

At first, Minneapolis janitor Rosalina Gomez said she didn't realize she was cleaning up after the CEO of the bank that bought her foreclosed home in a September sheriff's sale.

"At the beginning I didn't know he was the guy," said Gomez through an interpreter in an interview with HuffPost. "I didn't know the relationship between my house and him. I saw him one time but never talked to him."

The guy is Richard Davis, CEO of Minneapolis-based US Bank, the nation's sixth-largest bank and recipient of $6.6 billion in TARP bailout funds. On Feb. 28, Davis was set to receive an "Executive of the Year" award from the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal at a banquet -- 11 days before Gomez and her family had to comply with an eviction order.

The Service Employees International Union, of which Gomez is a member, could not resist the opportunity to draw attention to the soon-to-be-evicted woman cleaning up after one of the bankers taking her home away (US Bank is the trustee; Chase is the mortgage servicer). The SEIU began agitating for Gomez, an effort which dovetailed with a union campaign on behalf of area janitors fighting for a better contract.
This guy has two guards who are being paid just to follow her around. I think he should have to do his own cleaning.
GoGo Girls, that is not the issue. Do you owe the banks a bail out? Is that your responsibility? Your tax money is supporting this BS.

Question #12:

My partner is not taking constructive critisism kindly?

I am unsure which section to post this under as it's not really about my relationship as such. But any advice would be appreciated. Basically my partner who is 26 is training to be a teacher, the school he is based at is outside our hometown and the people running his department are all women. Therefore I think he is out of his comfort zone already, his last school he was training in was in our hometown, there were males his age he got along with well etc and generally he had a really positive experience. This is his last year of training and since he has been on this new placement he has been telling me he wants to give up and just work fulltime in an office or as a labourer or something. He has been studying for 6 years and working part-time to pay rent etc etc so I think giving up would be such a waste. He is generally he really mentally strong guy - nothing phases him etc. But since this new school I have noticed a change in him.

So recently I tried to "pick" information from him as he can be a bit too proud at times to tell me his weakness/problems. He told me that the 3 female members of staff who he is working under are giving him really negative feedback after his classes. Every night he is coming home and preparing - he is always working away. He has never had negative feedback before - not to this extent anyway. So he told me what they would say to him and it sounds like they are just being ultra negative towards him and not giving him any positive feedback.
I know in life you have to take negative feedback (I work in business) so I know this VERY well. It sounds like they are being hard on him, they are not giving him any actual advice or pointers - they may aswell say "well you are a really bad teacher". Everything they are saying are nit picking and almost bit--chy - I can expect that from females though, as I am one lol.

I don't know what to do, I am worried he will give up as he is really not enjoying it, he told me he finds them really intimidating - I find this so difficult to believe as my partner is a big butch guy. Sometimes I wonder if its to do with my partner's up bringing, between his mum and dad he cannot do any wrong - they praise him all the time and always have - even if they are just popping in for two minutes they will be all over him making a fuss. Whereas when I was younger I had a more "get praise when you've done something right" action and scalded when wrong.

Question #13:

I need help with a complicated divorce situation...?

I was married for 7 years, have three kids, 2,8, and 9. My ex and I struggled for many years with intense fighting, her alcoholism, and other marital issues. It was hard for me to do, as we had kids, but I decided that divorce was best for everyone, seeing that all we did was fight. I own a house, a house that was our marital home. We were separated in November 2007, the divorce was finalized in January 2009. We could not come to an agreement in our divorce, as she demanded quite a bit. I gave in and agreed to pay $1400 monthly for child support, and the mortgage on the marital home ($900 a month) for one year, after one year, she was to begin "renting" the home from me for $600 monthly, with me paying the leftover $300. Well, a lot has happened in the past year. I own a business, which is losing a lot of money because of the bad economy, and my monthly debts (credit cards, loans, etc) are now 60 days late. I am facing bankruptcy, and CANNOT pay for the mortgage. To add to this, my ex has been flaky with rent, and states she does not have the money to pay the rent. I have not made the mortgage payment in almost 60 days. MY PROBLEM: My parents are affluent, they live a higher standard of life. They are appalled that I am going to let the home go into foreclosure, that my children will have to move to an apartment. They state that the kids do not deserve to live "like that". They have been guilting me, like I am a horrible father for making my kids live in an apartment. (Might I add, my ex is fine with the apartment idea.) Are my parents right? Am I a bad father for not providing my kids with a large, newer home? Is it bad for your kids to live in an apartment? I feel really torn, as I really want the best for my kids, and don't want to hurt them. But it is literally impossible for me to keep providing my ex and the kids with such a high standard of living that we lived when we were married. The standard of living that I had provided was largely based on credit cards, now, they are maxed out, and unpaid. I do know and admit that I was in over my head, so please, no harsh or judgmental replies.
My name is solely on the mortgage. My ex has not worked in probably 8 years. She is currently unemployed, and has no other income other than child support, ($1400 a month). I am upside down on the home, as I have refinanced quite a few times, and the value of my home has deteriorated due to the many foreclosures in my neighborhood. My ex does have sole custody, she has told me that she has stopped drinking, but unfortunately I would have no way of knowing if she is telling the truth.

Question #14:

What are good at home consultant jobs?

I live on a military base and am wanting to find an at home consultant job like avon, mary kay, etc. My sister does it for pure romance, but I don't think i could do that kind of business. I do not work but get very bored at home all the time. I want to do something that is fun and that sells really good. I want to be able to make my own hrs and I am planning to host a party at my home once a month. I am not interested in any makeup sales. I really love candles and smell good things. Any suggestions?

Question #15:

How do I open my own .com?

So, I know about go daddy, about registering my domain name with that site to open my own .com. However, I need help with the whole process. Please someone with experience. I'm opening a mini business based out of my home selling hair accessories and want to know what it would cost more or less to keep a simple .com. I just want to show my items, accept payments, have a few pages regarding myself and such, and overall just have a nice cute website and easy for people to find. Since, my business is new, I want to cut my website costs to least possible, because income right now isn't that vast. Someone please give me detailed advise in an easy understandable way. I'm pretty good with computers, so I don't think I'll have a problem. Thanks
Is there a place that can create the website for me? If i give them details and pay for it? And if go Daddy is costly, what might you suggest for less?
I was thinking paypal to accept payments. I don't get what you say when you say "web hosting". What does that mean? Where do I go about doing that?

Question #16:

What is the logic behind barring insurance companies from denying coverage based on a pre-existing condition?

I understand people generally like this idea. (they also like free ice cream)

Isn't denying certain people coverage part of the insurance business model??

Would you give home owner's insurance to a person who's house was on fire when they tried to buy the insurance??
los..........That is completely irrelevant to what I'm asking.
gen.............."Since insurance is based on a risk pool, it won't really affect what anyone else has to pay. "

How will adding more risky people to the pool not affect what everyone else has to pay??
janet.........."So you think they should be able to seel health insurance only to people that are health and don't need it."

I think a PRIVATE company does what it thinks will make it money. Pretending that having insurance equates to getting affordable healthcare is ludicrous.
pecker......"The only way to do this would be with mandates. The risk pool would have to increase. It's actually a pretty solid model."

But wouldn't you have to pass a constitutional amendment to mandate everyone own insurance??

Question #17:

buying a car and using yahoo as a third party?

hello,
I am confuse because I am planning to buy a car though craigslist but i am not sure if its true or fake. I send an email to a seller and they responded back saying this:

"Please take a few moments and read my email carefully, I know it is long, but because I received too many emails, I will explain all the details about the car and the transaction.

For pictures and details please visit my site: jeepwra (dot) page (dot) tl
To view the pictures please replace (dot ) with .

At the moment I'm stationed at Hancock Field AGS an US Military AFB in Syracuse, NY. making final preparations before deploying to Iraq with the U.S. Convoy

The car is already at our Military Logistic Department form Fort Belvoir, U.S. Army base near Bethesda, MD, crated and ready to go. The Logistic Department will deliver the car to your home. Since the car is in a military base, with no access you can not go there and take it, only the Logistics Department can deliver it, because the car is in their custody.

Shipping may take anywhere between 1-2 business days depending on the destination.. All documents you need for ownership, loog book , manuals and bill of sale will be provided along with the vehicle.
For the payment I would like to use Yahoo as a third party. They will keep your money into a protection account until you get the vehicle and will release it to me after inspection period is over and you agree to keep the car. So, this is not a blind transaction, you can see the car before committing to buy and to eliminate any concerns you will have 3 days to inspect it. If you decide not to keep it Yahoo will refund you the money, no questions asked, and shipping back will be my concern. I think this is more than fair for both of us.

I'll start the official procedure, and Yahoo will contact you about this. If you are interested in buying it just mail me back with:
- Your Full Name - Required by Yahoo (You'll receive important guidelines + instructions from them.)
- Your Shipping Address and Phone Number - Required by the Logistics Department (They will call you with delivery/pickup instructions 1 day ahead so you can communicate what time schedule work best for your to receive the car)

Again I want to point out that because I am going to Iraq this sale is my top priority and I am looking after a fast transaction, with no delays. That is why I decided to lower the price, to avoid wasting time with negotiations and find a buyer as soon as possible.

Thanks, hope to do business with you soon!"

So please can someone answer my question, saying if its true or not. Thank You
