It's really hard to do this, but congrats on wanting to! If you can borrow a male, even a 20-something, it seems to make a difference in these kinds of atmospheres, and you get better, more honest answers.
Had a car-buying experience when I was married, the husband came with me when it came time to sign on the dotted line. We found the car, negotiated the deal and I signed. Husband went to his 2nd shift job and I waited while they prepped the car.
Unbeknownst to me, someone else made a slightly better bid on the same car a few minutes later, and since I was alone by that point, waiting, they kept me on the hook 2+ more hours, had me talk to a loan officer with some sad story (we already had the financing)and generally tried to make me back off on the signed contract, AFTER the husband was gone.
I sat and watched soaps for 2 hours, kept my cool, they finally got tired of the run-around, and I drove away smiling in MY new car. The dorks.
So, borrow a guy for a few hours, from somewhere reliable, and have a BALL while you do this!

Working until this afternoon, then
cooking, eating, watching movies. I made the stuffing yesterday, all I have to do is put it in the oven, along with other goodies.

I told my Mom just that this afternoon
I typed 2000 lines yesterday and it only took me 6 hours and that averages to be 30.00 an hour...I can't make that working outside of the home...I get paid full-time wages but only work part-time...that would never happen outside of the home either...I am so thankful for my job...no complaining here
Mid-afternoon Slump
 Any suggestions on what to do for that mid-afternoon slump? I get so blah about this time of day, it's all I can do to stay awake.

Mid afternoon slump
Thanks for the suggestion. Sounds good to me! Now if I can get my hubby to go to the store for me. I'm to try anything at this point. I think my biological clock thinks I'm supposed to have an afternoon siesta.
males...that is right!!
I was thinking about your post and it hit me that most of the stuff i have spent the last 6 months getting rid of was all his!! I wonder if there is a reason males tend to br "pack rats". Maybe some deeper issues.
I agree...call the afternoon before just to be sure...nm

I'm not NRA either, but most of the males in my family
are outdoorsmen. We've always got fresh fish and game meat. Being raised on game, I think it tastes better than beef or other meats from the grocery store. Plus, you never know what the grocery stores do to the meat. There was a hidden camera news report of a grocery store that soaked expired meats in a bleach water solution and repackaged it for sale. You never know if some lazy person is going to drop the meat on the floor and package it up anyways. At least in processing our own meat, we know where it came from and how it was processed.
Our state needs hunters because the deer and elk overpopulate. They damage crops and run loose on the highway causing human deaths. I would never hunt personally, but I do need to feed my family. Our freezer will be full again soon with a side of beef and a deer.
It's because they assume males in
any predominantly female occupation are gay. Beautician, florist, nurse, secretary, bank teller, MT. Maybe people think all females in male dominated occupations are "butch"?? LOL What do you think of when you see a woman construction worker? A. Gay. B. Not pulling her weight. C. Overpaid fluff job for EEO purposes.
There are many males on my account...
and not a one of us is gay (altho I've been labeled that on these boards by some), so I can relate. However, who cares if they DO think we're all gay? I love my gay pals! 
So again having sex between 2 adult males sm
or females is the same grouping as men raping boys??? Come on, you are the one that needs an education.
Yes they can - especially elderly males.

I work afternoon/evenings and 1 day wkend
but that is ok with me as my home situation fits that. I am sure there are places that have days but it seems like most places are going for the 1 day per weekend work situation.
What kind of exam to males have to have??

Are males required to have testicular
x
Cleaning the toilet. I live with five males.
Why should I have to clean it? I don't miss!!! 
You must know some pretty goofy males to love it! Hee-haw!
Them women folk always know best! Yuck, yuck. OMG I just slipped on a banana peel. 
Males don't have vaginas but do you know they are supposed to do Kegels? sm
I didn't know til recently that males could do and are supposed to do Kegels routinely like us females are to keep the incontinence away. hear it is great pleasure for the women during sex like it is for men when women Kegel.
you didn't offend me. you offended yourself and males who you know. if you think it's funny,
i don't. and i don't like the buffoon dumb male vs very clever female schtick either. it is degrading to both parties. if the female is so smart, why is she with some dumba$$ guy anyway?
My daughter's elementary school was on lock down yesterday afternoon cause some freak in a red S
truck drove onto school property behind the school (where the playground is) and tried to get some kids on recess to get into his truck! Thankfully the teachers on recess duty were paying attention and gathered all the kids back into the building and the school went on lock down. The police showed up within minutes, but the guy took off before they got there. So now they are looking for him. The news was parked in front of my house most of the morning this morning. I live directly across the street from the school.
It's just scary out there. My daughter who is in kindergarten was matter of fact about the whole thing. All she said when she gave me the note from the principal telling parents what happen was "It was for real mom. We thought it was a drill, but it was for real." Then I thought what a sad state this world is in when our schools have lock down drills now in addition to fire and tornado drills.
I live in a small town too and had a false sense of security until the Amish news and until yesterday. It seems like you simply aren't safe anywhere anymore.
