Company finally left this morning (stayed a day longer than I expected). Nice people, but seem bitter about life. Nice kids, but a bit spoiled and demanding. Was ready to bash their heads together this morning.
Now I can get back to normal!!

to have your privacy back again, isn't it? Company is great, but you just can't do what you want--when you want to do it.

3. It is always SUCH a good feeling to have your house back to... |
|
yourself again. I've never been able to understand people who really like to entertain and have people visit. It's such work, and it takes such energy. As a low energy person, I just don't have what it takes to do it very often.
Do something special for yourself as a reward for your efforts!

4. I know what you mean... |
|
When I've had company in the past, I'm always ready for them to go before they actually did. People get into a routine with their daily lives and people staying with you interrupts that routine. :hi:

5. I had a really busy day the other day, and no budget for a helper. |
|
But my occasional helper showed up anyway, and worked all day for free. Why? Because her in-laws are visiting, and she needed an excuse to get out.

Company and fish both begin to stink after three days.

multiple guests-3 days is the limit. You still like each other when they leave. For the most part, anyway.
