That was a brilliant and very moving thing your mom did.
Glad you had a nice weekend and enjoyed the movie and family time.
I concur that you do better when you don't interact with Gabe. And keeping that to a minimum is of course good.
I know I've said it before and sound like a broken record..but Gabe owes you, so don't feel like you are dependent on him when you ask him to do things! He owes you tons of money and he can work it off! He's NOT doing you a favor, he's giving you things directly instead of giving you the money to do them yourself.
