Well, I moved into the spare bedroom for a couple of selfish reasons:
Our mattress has been making my back sore--it is 10 years old, I don't know if I bought one of those "refurbished" ones or not, but it sags. I have been sleeping SO MUCH BETTER--no backache when I get up!!
Also the filth of that room is depressing/making me sick. He let me fix up the spare bedroom exactly how I like it because he didn't really care about it--and it is bright and nice with 6 year old carpeting rather than 25 year old carpeting. His parents stay in there, and that is another reason he let me spend money on it.
Well, now it is my room and I have been SO HAPPY waking up with NO headache and no backache. I have been chipper every morning--just because I am not in PAIN!
I had the workers remove some pocket doors and put up a wall--I did make a mistake or two with that one--didn't think about the wiring in the wall for the television, and didn't think about the light switch. H was pretty ticked (no sex for me) but then last night he did hold my hand for a few seconds. (a first in many months).lol. He wants to re-do this project and I said fine--you have a time limit and then I will have them re-do it. He said he'd do it Monday. Woohoo!! Finally up off his BUTT and doing something!!
