I do love our friend. Maybe it's just because he's a bachelor dude and doesn't seem realize that:
- The dishes he uses should be washed, or at least taken to the kitchen (not left on the table for me to pick up)
- He makes noises when he eats
- He asks a question and then interrupts before I can get 3 words out
- His little dog chews on anything that's not nailed down
(Okay, so I'm actually a rather obsessive neat freak…)
But I'm trying to use this as a learning experience…
Relax…Breathe...Enjoy the company…
But DANG IT…
Buster has had the same toys since he was a baby (even as a puppy he was not destructive), and since Zoe got here she has destroyed a half dozen. Squeakers de-squeaked… button eyes gouged out… stuffing everywhere!
Poor Buster won't have any toys left by the time she goes home!
AND POOR TEDDY!
Okay…I feel better now. Thanks for letting me vent.
Heavy sigh...shoulders back...BIG SMILE!
I can now continue to be nice to our guest.
Venting helps, doesn't it? Put all of B's toys away until Zoe goes home. We used to have to do that with my sons toys when a certain cousin came to visit.
ReplyDeleteJust keep smiling!
Yeah and I bet he left the toilet seat up too!
ReplyDeletePoor teddy!
That's why I burned down our guest room.
ReplyDeletePoor Teddy! Poor Buster! His toys are being violated.
ReplyDeleteVent away. That's what we're here for. It's fun to have guests for a change of pace, but it sucks dirty socks when you're doing all the cleaning up after them. I try to be considerate of Cute Boy's sister when I'm staying down there. It bothers me when I see others just letting her do for them when they can carry their own glasses to the sink. It's just common courtesy!
Poor toys! Happy New Year, G. May it be everything you want it to be.
