13 mo cries for 5-10 mins before settling down when we put him down for naps these days (typically, had been 1-1.5 hr x 2 naps and 10-ish hours at night). Not sure if it's more separation anxiety or if we need to transition down to a single nap.. thoughts?

Help me brainstorm: my DH is late 40s and wants to pívot and get into a consulting & real estate practice. Lots of experience on the real estate side. Which firms or groups should he look at? He’s spoken to MBB and essentially they do 1-2 real estate finance type engagements a year.

Should I sell stocks at a loss to reduce cap gains? I was just going to wait until they broke even, but sorta just want the cash. Not sure if there are pros (obviously con is loss)

Transitioning from admin to project management. I’ve been managing project at my current organization for a couple years, unofficially. I took the Google course for my PM Certification. I just need someone to give me a chance. Anyone hiring entry level PMs?

Has anyone else worked with a manager that’s difficult to get a gauge on whether you’re meeting expectations? Tiny actions suggest that he doesn’t really like me/gel with me. How does one cope with hard to read bosses where you constantly feel like you’re not doing enough to the point that I now have anxiety about my work and wondering if my head is first on the chopping block if time came. When asked for feedback I don’t get much constructive criticism.

Good afternoon! I hope everyone felt appreciated this week and always! I am sharing this because I’m not sure what to think. The administration did some small things for us (soup and schmooze which i wish were soup and snooze LOL) but in a week which was very stressful for us with Ap exams coming up etc, we were asked to show our appreciation to each other via emails, or some special way. Nice thought, but we kinda do this every day…. Aren’t the students supposed to say thank you? 🤷‍♀️

The schools are on the same campus so there is a lot of teacher overlap which is the main issue. Middle school state tests are only administered in May, so there’s no way for our middle school to also shift to the block. What alternate schedules does your middle school use? What solution do you see to the problem?
