Sounds like the weekend was good and busy! I'm so glad the room is looking better. Maybe you can finish once the diagnosis is in and the bleedings begin?
I agree with the others that we need to increase your PMA somewhat. I'm not sure I have many great suggestions, apart from maybe mentioning socks here and there!

Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart. And you'll never walk alone.
Hey, we couldnt show up without food and drinks. So, there it is - socks, 2x4's, food, and drinks. Oohh and maybe we should just organize and decorate his room for him, that would help.
Jeff, I know how hard it must be for you, to live in the house together and not feel any real connection. Maybe you should start thinking about you right now. Put your w on the back burner for now and do something for you. Figure out something that would make you happy, and then do it!
Listen, friend, hopefully you get the diagnosis you want, they do what they need to and fix you up and you'll start feeling like your old self again. So, I guess since you are a little down and tired, I wont nag about the room for awhile.
Have I mentioned how much I appreciate the (((((((friends))))))) I have made here? 'Cause I should have!
You guys are the best!
Michelle, Lisa, and begginersmind, if you show up, I am sure my PMA would become much more positive!
I still want to peck away at the room. It is a lot better, I have just had trouble getting over the hump, so to speak. I feel lazy, but I don't know that that is really it!
I think I am getting more and more down about having no connection at all with W. And the kids will be the ones to really suffer, they do already. I'm sure she doesn't see that.
So, I think I do need to do for me. I keep doing for her, and it doesn't matter! Sink clean or not clean. She yells or not, but that's the only difference. So, where's the motivation? I don't really care if she yells anymore, she have already taken everything there is to take from me, so it just doesn't matter!
Boy, I do sound miserable. Maybe that's where all the energy goes! Enough of that. We are going to start looking out for me!
Right back at you, Jeff (btw, my name is Donna). Yes, you need to do for you. Take care of you. Put your marriage on the shelf for awhile. You cant control her or her reactions, you can only control you. So, what are you going to do for you today? Think of something you always wanted to do, or something that makes you happy, it could be anything at all, the possibilities are endless. Sieze the day, my friend. Remember, you matter!
(((((Donna))))) I knew that, but as you hadn't used it on the board (that I've seen, anyway) I wasn't using it! I kind of figure we all pick the degree of privacy we are after, and I don't want to violate that!
So, I need to figure out what I can do for me, being somewhat responsible with money, respectful of the kids, and not involving an OW. That should leave quite a bit. I will have to do some thinking.
