If I just refinanced my house last year, is it a bad idea to do it again this year?

Also, what about these companies who offer lending 125% more of your mortgage balance? New Day Financial does this. Is there any catch? I’m trying to borrow and extra $30,000 which is why I’m looking at refinancing.

Please help with my misbehaving 6 year old son!?

My 6 year old son is misbehaving in school. This has been happening since kindergarten. He throws temper tantrums, and today, threw a glue stick at a teacher! I received a call from his principle and she’s putting him in in school suspension. I am just appalled at his behavior! He never acts that way at home. I would love some good advice on how to go about rectifying this situation. I have him enrolled in some fun extracuricullar activities, as well. I don’t want to hear that he lacks attention at home and that’s why it happens. I am a stay at home mom and spend hours of quality time with my children everyday and actually give my son extra personal time because of this. This is what my husband and I came up with as a punishment: we are going to take EVERYTHING out of his room and make him earn it back slowly as he shows improvement. We are also not allowing him to play video or computer games.

Looking for nice apartment to rent in Prague for 6 months – 1 year.?

I am looking for a nice apartment to rent in Prague for 6 months – 1 year, starting in July.

My wish list is: in Prague-1, close to Old Town Square. High ceilings, big windows, two bedrooms minimum, preferably three. I am searching through a couple websites like http://www.PragueRealEstate.cz and http://www.happyhouserentals.com , I would like to find as much as possible.

My dream apartment would be to have a whole rooftop area to myself. Some top floor apartments include this.

Really Bad Smell?

Okay. Last year, around this time we had this horrible smell in our bathroom. At first we thought it was just that our septic tank was getting full so we had it pumped. That didn’t help. So my father replaced a seal around the toilet. That didn’t help either. He eventually ended up replacing the entire toilet. The smell stayed and gradually went away towards the end of March. We forgot about it, until it returned last week. It smells horrible and exactly like it did last year. It’s kind of hard to determine where it is coming from bt it seems like this certain part of the wall. Before last fall, we had the back of our house sided and we figured that the smell was coming from a dead animal that had been sided into the wall. However, it was gone all summer and then recently returned. We live in a log cabin so it’s going to be a real difficult to take out the wall. Is there any way for us to pinpoint the source of the smell, a suggestion as to what is might be and how to get rid of it?
The bathroom is right off our kitchen, which is where everyone walks into the house. The smell is pretty embarassing and we have visitors alot. Shutting the door just makes it about a million times worse when you actually do have to go into the room and it’s too cold to leave the window open. Candles help a little but not much.
Lol and about the siding of a log cabin…. The part we got sided got alot of weather and caused the wall to rot a little. It’s not towards the road or anything so no one sees and my mom didn’t want my father up on a ladder trying to get out the bad logs.

Move or stay?

I’m currently finishing a course with my job that will lead me into a low-paid traineeship year with my current company in order to build the logged hours of experience I need as a commercial pilot.

The traineeship is good that it gives you this (despite the pay) but my problem is in how I am with the company. I have had enough of the tense, aggressive environment and I’m sick of the abusive instructors who think breaking you down is the only way. I don’t want to have to deal with that tension every day for another year. I have a job option about 120km away in another town – I want to go there to work as it’s a better place but my Dad thinks I should stay for the traineeship. I’m 19, nearly 20 and at home. I don’t want him to think I’m moving to this other place for my girlfriend who happens to be there – I’m moving for the work. (Originally I was going to move even further – regardless of her). What should I do/say to him in particular, to let him see how I feel, what I want…?
