Guests

And rightly so! lol

Now, for the record, Sal comes around as he is able and is a proud Texan. He's been fighting an illness for quite some time now and I do believe he would welcome Oz to his inner circle.
Boy, that's like an insult to a Texan. I may need to hide out at Lynne's house in Michigan.

My guest story is a combination of too long, too complicated, and personal. But I will share it was my Sister (me 38; her 55).

Invited her to stay with me at my condo during her cross country visit. I asked her politely many times for the length of her estimated stay but she wouldn’t say. So last day before her trip began I told her she was welcome for one full week but then the stay would be over.

Uncertain what was up I removed all sharp knives and scissors from my house. I told my two closest friend that if they didn’t hear from me by 5PM each night that week to assume something was wrong and therefore to check on me.

Seventh day came and my Sister gave no indication of planning to leave. Though I asked her repeatedly how I could help, she would ignore my offers. I took vacation to spend time with her and gave her my office to use as a comfortable bedroom. So that disrespecting and controlling sh&t wasn’t happening in my home. So I ushered her out as politely as I could. I didn’t care where she went nor how she got there at that point.

She told my family that I threw her out so whoever I was living with could move back in. Um...I lived alone. I needed my office back so that I could work again.

Knowing Sal, he'd whack you upside the head with a funny line for that one! lol I miss him, too. Prayers go out for him tonight.
 
I don't know. I was going to get in the kitchen this morning (which I've always kept and tried to keep immaculate) but I was facing an even bigger mess. I can't stand clutter. I like a tidy home.
When I shared a house with my younger brother and a couple of friends he knocked the chip pan over and spilled used cooking oil all over the kitchen floor. If you don't know chip pans it's like a deep fat fryer, so a lot of oil all over the floor. Instead of cleaning up, he wrote a sign saying 'Beware: oil' and taped it to the kitchen door. None of us were impressed. There was a lot of passive aggression and severe hinting until we finally had to corner him at the scene of the crime and yell at him until he cleaned up. His attitude was that it was easier to just step around the oil than do any work and if we felt otherwise we should clean it. We actually had to yell at him about the importance of it being his fault. He just doesn't get the whole Golden Rule concept.
Honestly, he's an asshole.
