I just had a meeting to review my resume with a career counselor at my graduate school. Right now I have my resume formatted with my name at the top as First MI Married (Maiden). The counselor suggested I format it differently, but I'm stuck. I want...

We had put a deposit down on a place, but the previous tenants haven't moved out so we've still been looking. The problem is DH's only criteria are whether it's in a safe neighborhood and no major structural issues, regardless of things like whether...

DH's job can't afford him anymore. His boss is looking to see if there are other openings he would be a good fit for, but he will probably have to take a paycut and possibly have to jobhunt on his own as well. With a paycut, we won't be able to...
