DBing Again -- Need Support Now

[Shakspr]

Raw - that's been me for two weeks now. Parents, even well-meaning ones, can cause havoc. I try to DB my Mom too - no expectations, appreciation for even the littlest thing, and setting clear boundaries even when they are, in their minds, being magnanimous.

Try going in there on your own and just taping off the rooms with blue painter's tape (so you don't have to re-do the trim if you don't want to.) Ask her to judge your work, make corrections with a smile on your face, and get rolling (literally!)
