Overstaying their welcome

[marieantoinehairnet]

Just that.

MIL arrived early 23rd... she's still here, husband of no use in extracting her, am back to work day after tomorrow and had no alone relaxation time for just skinning out.

AIBU to ask her what her plans are for tomorrow?

I've just had to Google it too... and now she thinks I'm mental as I can't possibly tell her what I'm laughing at

I think this is all you need. 🍷

Am hoping she'll F'cougb soon

F'cough!!! F' sake!

I feel your pain OP. One of my DC said they were going this afternoon (been here since 23rd). Actually left at 7pm!

I wouldn't want anyone staying overnight at my house so i salute all of you who have house guests, a few hours is enough for me I do believe you should tell people (politely) when you want them to leave though. You've been good enough to host them but once you've had enough and want your own space back they need to be told to go home if they don't take any hints. For the poster who has someone staying from 18th December till 4th January all i can say is good luck to you🍀

Update: she's gone, not before knocking on the bedroom door to check we were awake!

Thanks for the update. I'm glad she has gone and you at least have 1 day to prep before returning to work. What time did she wake you?

My MIL thought it was acceptable to vacuum outside the room I was staying in once- at 7am when I've just got into bed from a night shift!

Went at an ungodly hour, 5.30am. She did strip the bed. I'm all for guests, just not ones who stAy nearly a week. just done a big clean and now the rest of the day is all mine

Why the hell was she leaving at 5.30??? A plane to catch? 6am milk train? Driving from Land’s End to John O’Groats?

I can’t think of a reasonable explanation for that at all!

5.30am?! 😆 Was that her being PA or does she usually leave that early?

I think there was an element of umbrage about it, she's not a very subtle person so she must have started to sense she was overstaying her welcome. Not enough to leave earlier though!
