Re: RE: One project accomplished

Ha....same here Zem...if either of my three sisters came to stay for more than a day...I'd go postal. Now my brother...we are from the same "mold" and agree on a lot of things...and I very rarely get to see him because he lives in Honolulu. I like that old saying, "friends are the family you choose for yourself"...cause I sure as heck wouldn't have CHOSEN my blood-family. I'm an alien to them. Pam can attest to that.

If my sister came to visit me for more than a couple of hours I would be arrested. I admire your restraint. My brother visits me sometimes. (He lives in New York.) Since we both live alone we give one another a lot of space, and that is a good thing. I get to spend time with him so infrequently, however, that I'm usually up for whatever he wants to do.

If you're somewhere for a month, you're not a house "guest" any
more.....hand visiting sister the vac and tell her where to start:-)

Donna,
It's not funny. this is her lifestyle. She's sitting around reading
until 3 or 4 in the morning, then sleeps til 2pm. I don't mind too

much

as it gives me my morning to myself, but I hate tip-toeing around

my own

house. She thinks visiting for a month is normal. My idea of a

visit is

3 days max. I know I sound heartless, but I guess I'm a creature of
habit and everything is in disarray. I am forever doing dishes and
emptying trash while it takes her 3 days to move her suitcase to

her

bedroom.
