A bit.

.
.
I was awake at five, or so.  Having gone to bed around 20:30.  Never got Jasmine for a walk, but did get her out early.  Fed the cats, made my coffee, set up coffee for mom, then gamed.

Mom woke around nine?  She slept well.  Pushy, still, today.  Some of which is fine.  Still have some things to do for the walk-in tub install tomorow.  But this morning it was mostly getting drapes and sheers up.

The front room, the two big picture windows were set up.  Then in the kitchen.  Oh, but one of the windows in the kitchen was incorrectly made.  They could have made it fit, but the trim wouldn't have fit back, and it would have been a mess.  Plus it wouldn't match the other window out there.  So we decided to wait on the correct window, and a return in about three weeks to do that.

The rest of the installations went quickly and well.  The place is really shaping up.  And these new windows are absolutely amazing, as to opening, locking shut, and how they can be cleaned so easily.  Mom said something about washing them and I came down hard on her.  Make a work projects, after all we have done, in my poor health, with her own exhaustion, and else!  HELL NO!  I was a bit furious.  Those windows don't need washed!

We have been butting heads, on a number of things.  She wanted mismatched curtains in the kitchen?  No sheers in the wash area, and really tried to bull those through.  No, absolutely not.  Wouldn't save that much, and would look terrible.  Me?  I'd go with all black.  Blackout type.  Keeps the place cooler.  But she won't do that, so...  But, no.  While I will allow various colors per room, I refuse mismatched colors in the same room.  Calling one a hall and the other the kitchen, when they can both be seen from almost every place won't let me let that slide.  Besides, the curtains won't be wasted.  Need "new" ones in the back areas.

I am not sure if she is just overly tired, so pushy.  Or a bit confused.  But some things I just won't negotiate.  Yes, I have been spending a lot.  Too much.  But I wouldn't bunt on the ten yard line.  Finish it, take the pain, then... and only then... slow spending back down.

So close to really having the home set up.

Still have much to do, but not until spring, I think.  Well, other than manual efforts at more order, dealing with projects supplies are already owned, and clearing and cleaning.

And the tub is supposed to be going in tomorrow.  Then, other than medical, I will be resting for a week or six.  So much quieter.  The windows and siding make a massive difference with that.  That last window in will truly seal the place.  Newer windows up here already.

On to a bit of sleep.  Then, later, I'll clear the bathroom.  But mostly just game and eat later.  Goodnight, sort of, again.
