How should I give my salary requirments for new employment. Should I include it in my cover letter, or should it be its own seperate thing?

Thanks!

First, let me thank you for your help.

My husband and I are in a hard way right now. We recently moved back east from TX. We have a house in TX on the market (since Jan of this yr) that isn't moving (& its beautiful), he is working, and I am looking for work & hopefully will have something soon, money is really tight and bills are still coming.

My question to you is what can I do to help my husband not stress out. He had a break down of sorts last night about everything and I am so worried about him.

He gets up at 4a.m. to go to work and doesn't get home until after 5p.m., I have dinner ready for him, and make his lunch for the following day. After dinner he showers, we talk, and enjoy what ever's on TV or just try and relax.

I am putting out over 20 resumes' a day trying to find work, & like I said hopefully something will happen soon.

As a guy, what would you want your wife to do, to help with stress?

(And yes, our sex-life is just fine).

Thanks again!

With a new job, I have to relocate to another state and am needing to sell my house. This is my first house that I have owned, so I am unfamilar with looking for a real estate agent. I do not want to use the agent I had when I bought the house. So what are things that I should look for in a real estate agent? What questions should I ask them? Is this something I should shop around? Also, I need to get the house sold quickly (my job wants me to start ASAP), but I do want to make some $$, any advise?

Thank you so very much!

I am new to the area and was curious if there is a pumpkin patch in the Corpus Christi area. I am willing to drive 30-45 mins.

I grew up going to a place in Virginia that had a huge patch where you could pick and cut from the vine your own pumpkin, have hot apple cider, activities for the kids, free hay ride, corn maze, and scary house.

I would LOVE to find something like that here.

I looked online and couldn't find anything.

Thanks so much and Happy Halloween!

I have a puppy who is very curious, and last night as I was cooking dinner I found him eating my carpet! After I put the little stinker in his crate I cleaned the area and found that he left a 1/2 dollar coin size hole on one of the stairs. Is there a cheap way to fix this where it looks like nothing happened or do I need to hire someone to come and fix it?

Thanks.

By the way...the puppy is fine...spoiled, but fine. :)

What kind of work can I do from my home where I can make good to great money, and its legal?

I have tons of skills and experience.

Thanks!

My husband & I are closer w/ my family but can't afford to fly back east for the holiday. We have been invited by 2 people, locally, to seperate Thanksgiving celebrations. We were 1st asked by our best friend whose family has really taken us in & made us a part of there family, no questions asked. We even call her mother, 'ma'.

About a month later, we were later asked by my husbands aunt, who is the only person in his family that we do have a relationship with & care for dearly. We don't see her often, because as I said, his family is not very close, but when we do see her, its always a nice time.

We don't know what to do. We told our friend who intially invited us yes because we thought no one in his family would (they usually don't &his parents never called me back) but urg...

Also, both are celebrating the holiday at about the same time &since we are not the only ones invited to the holiday feast we don't feel right asking them to change the time just for us.

What would you do?

My birthday just past yesterday & I didn't get 1 thing from my husband. Not a gift, not a dinner out, not even a card. He worked late. We moved to this area 7 months ago & I have NO friends or family here, the closest are over 7 hrs away. So I sat in my livingroom eating leftovers & watching TV last night with my dogs for my bday.

His bday celebration was a 2 wk affair. On his actual bDAY I took him for to dinner to his fav resturant, that weekend I took him to a prof baseball game (even called ahead & got his name put on the jumbo-tron), gave him gifts gallore (tools, clothes, stuff for car, etc), got his favorite cake made. The 2nd wkend following his bday I took him for a long wkend away to the beach, stayed at a resort, also bought him gifts there.

In his defense he is working LOTS, but then again he has an hour lunch everyday & my birthday comes at the same time every year.

I am depressed & hurt. I feel like again, I went all out for him, nothing for me.

Am I Overreacting?

I live in the south where mosquito's are big, ugly and hungry. The minute I step outside I am under attack. What can I do because regular bug spray just ain't helping (even the ones with high deet). Also, once I am bitten, what can I do the stop the bite from itching?...besides scratching it ofcourse.

Thanks!

My 6 mo Scottie puppy was neutred on Friday. I had adopted him and with the cost of the adoption his neuter was included. I had to take him to a Vet that the adoption agency used.

Friday night one of his stiches popped. I called the vet and was told it should be fine (he has 2 stiches left).

Last night I caught the pup licking at it. I told him to stop immediatly which he did, but apon a closer look, the left side of the where the incision was made is red and a little hard and the area around his sack is red. It is not hot to the touch.

He is acting fine, eating as usual, etc.

I don't feel comfortable taking him back to the vet that performed the procedure, the place was 45 mins away, a whole in the wall & I think the a.c. was broken.

What should I do until I can get him into his usual vet?

Please help I am very worried.

I have a 6 month male Scottie mix and a 7 month female pug getting fixed today. I am curious as to what I can do to make them feel comfortable. I went out last night & bought them new beds and toys. Any suggestions? Also, I will double check w/the vet, but when is it okay for them to eat, drink, play, etc?

Thanks so much
