Agreed. You can only command it. You're doing that. It just takes time to bear fruit.
Sorry about your MIL; enjoy your time with her. The change of clothes is a good idea. With the asthmatic bronchitis, meds and steroids, you don't need to wear yourself down.
Mother-daughter time sounds good, too, even if under sad conditions (anniversary) and you're now the Queen of clutter-tossing, so that should help!
I just recently posted my unused 2nd floor master bedroom suite on craigslist. $urvival mode. Three prospects/showings this weekend, all scared away by the For Sale sign. Oh, well.
Good luck. (((GW)))
