The Unwelcome Guest

Dear Friends,

Sometimes when we have visited you on stops during our journey, we wonder...are we intruding? Over-staying our welcome? Do we talk too much, eat too much, keep you up too late?

Our visitor yesterday was such a one.  Irene.  We didn't ASK her to drop in. She called last week to say she'd be by, but we were hoping she'd change her mind. We did make up her room, however, because hoping wasn't working.  She was on the way, and NOTHING was gonna stop her.

She came early...5:30 am.    Empty-handed.     It appears she was pre-menstrual.
(that's the nice way to say 'miserable bitch'). 
The screaming and crying went on for 18 hours. She wouldn't allow us to talk to anyone else while she was here, and my only connection to the outside world came when I had to twinkle and could use that "private time" to post updates to my Facebook page!. 
She trashed the place. Then she abruptly departed, leaving us to clean up the mess.

Here is what she looked like in action:
(my apologies for the "Blair Witch" effect)



Fortunately, she didn't stay the night, so her room did not take a hit. 
Unfortunately, she has relatives who might drop in before the Winter gets here.

We plan to be out of town if that happens.

Love to you!
xoxoxo, clare
