I am aching from head to toe!!!! All from pretty good stuff though.
I went to my Weight Watchers meeting today and lost 2 pounds this week (that is 7 so far in 3 weeks - YEAH!) and then came home and did my workout for an hour. A little sore from that but fine. Then I decided I needed to get to work cleaning my carpets. I bought a carpet cleaner with some of my tax money because my carpet is gross from the dog. I started with my bedroom, then Marc's room and the hallway. That took me about 3 hours and a lot of that was on my hands and knees using the pet spot eliminator tool. Good heavens! I'm exhausted!!!!!!!!
I had hoped to get to some of the weeding once it warmed up today but I was too involved in the carpets. Maybe next week....
They installed the wheelchair ramp this afternoon. Hopefully I can convince mom to try that on Tuesday. She didn't go to dialysis today because she couldn't walk and didn't want me to try to get the wheelchair out without the ramp. No longer an excuse!
I hope you all have managed to accomplish something you feel exceptionally good about this weekend. Do share!!

Well.....apparently Marc is going to have a roommate again. Gabe has been kicked out of the broom's place. I hope to God I don't regret this but it's not in my nature to tell him to screw off and deal with the situation he created for himself.
Ok, blast away at me. I'm prepared.

I'm a sick glutton for punishment.....true confessions.....
The broom has her wall open on her FB for anyone to see even if not a friend. Well....I looked. Sad, I know. I shouldn't but it still cracked me up!!! She has changed her R status to single and put this as her status:

Maybe you should set some rules for him while he is there. things he needs to do, things you need help with. think of him as a hired hand and not your ex. See how he handles that!

That is exactly my plan! I looked at this as God's way of putting a temporary solution to some of my daily stress. He's able bodied and I can use his strength. Marc is all smiles but I had to make sure this morning to tell him this is temporary only, not to treat this like a special occasion meaning he doesn't have to do his chores or any of his normal routine. He seems to understand that...we'll see.

(((((mishka))))) Well, you sure have a lot happening!
It's great to hear that the diet and exercise are starting to pay off... I think that's going to make you feel batter about a lot of things.
I'm sorry to hear about your mom. Between her health, and (at least from what I think I've picked up about her) her drama-queenness, it sounds like you have some challenges in front of you. I think it is important to remember that you can't "make her better", not matter how much of yourself you give. So make sure that you don't feel guilty about her condition. Actually, she's responsible for some if it, I don't think her attitude over the years has helped her get stronger and heal, I get the feeling that she has held herself back. So that now that she has had a downturn, she isn't as strong as she could have been. That's water under the bridge, but make sure you don't take responsibility for things you couldn't control!
Gabe... well, that's interesting. Not sure it's a great idea, but since you have committed to it, take advantage of it! I think you should use the opportunity for you and Marc to get away, even if it's only for a day or two. It would be good for both of you. I'm not sure where you should go, just away would be good. Heck, maybe just a night or two someplace with heated pool.
Don't know what to make of the broom's comments, did Gabe take to cheating on her? I've always thought that taking up with a cheater was a pretty bad plan!
