[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 503529, member: 1514"] Well Susie...lets do it together! I basically cant get anyone to do anything anymore. Tony does do some stuff on the weekends when he is here but other than its nil except for me. Billy basically thinks he is exempt unless I can coral him at the last second and get him to cook supper but that is hardly worth the effort because he does such a **** poor job at it that I think he is sabotaging it so we wont ask him again. The only thing he does well is grill sausages because he likes them. Telling him to wash dishes or take out trash is just an exercise in futility. I do know that I can do more than I actually do. I need to clean my room but it will take me at least two weeks to get it clean doing it slowly. Problem is I am very sore and my medications arent kicking in real well and I am still getting used to the new ones. It seems like the oxy isnt keeping me out of pain as well but it keeps me awake at odd times but Im still really sleepy but if I get even woken up at all, Im completely woken up for good. And tony wakes me up because he tosses and turns continuously because his shoulder is killing him. And god help me, I have to get completely dressed everytime I leave my bedroom to go out to the kitchen which doesnt lend itself to sleeping. Oh chores, I came home today to find Buck washing dishes which was great but he threw out some macaroni and cheese we had the day before yesterday which we would have fed to our big dog and he dumped it right outside our front door. We dont do that. We never do that. All leftovers either go to Nina or out to the edge of the woods. Not just stepping on my front door stoop and pouring slop over the railing. That draws critters. And of course, Tony doesnt like it when I give him a list of things to discuss with his brother. I guess I need to just take the bull by the horns and tell him myself. Heck, first thing the both said was...here is Bucks w2, file it for him. I said no, I cant do math anymore and I dont do taxes for anyone anymore. I have been telling Tony to get Billy to do his for the last several years and I have no idea if he is doing it or not. Not my problem. I think as long as Billy and Buck are here we need to divide up days for using the washer. Buck wants to use it every day. NO. That is too much water. He does small loads. He should do one load a week. Possibly two. He could do that on Thursdays. Billy could have Tuesdays. I can have Mondays and Tony can have Saturday and Sunday. One of us needs to cook each night. That ends up mostly me except on Thursdays Tony brings home Chinese as a treat on payday. I assume that will stay the same. I believe Buck should continue doing the dishes. I think Billy should be responsible for sweeping and mopping the floor plus keeping the bathroom clean. If he wants to live like a pig in his own room, so be it. Im not going to fight that anymore.
