Advice regarding paid vacation

[3rdtimesacharm]

I'm waiting to hear from my husband regarding the contract. Hopefully he was able to take a look at it. We didn't get a copy from her after she signed it and the copy we made before signing was lost during our house move.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe she MUST provide you with a contact that is signed by BOTH parties for it to be considered legal and binding.
It sounds
like you have dealt with more than your share fair of Crap from this provider and I would not be paying anymore than you already have. You sound like very reasonable clients and she should not be paid for what she is demanding.
