How hard is it to get a rating for tinnitus? I have medical records from when I was in service and went in for ringing in my ears after deployment but I can't decipher the handwriting from the doctor. I think I'm just going to find a VSO near me to help.

Ok. I am teaching music in person and when we have a case of COVID in the school, I push into the classroom for 10 days.

I had to think on the fly and quickly came up with a BrainPop for them. I’d like to find a few more music sites.

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.

I've been a dental assistant for 11 years , and I think I'm done . I feel the pay is never enough and 9/10 we do the most work in the office .
