Handling Surprise Visitors #NaBloPoMo

November 6, 2015 by Alisha Leave a Comment

Here it is at the end of day 6 of #NaBloPoMo and I had no idea what I wanted to talk about.  Well lo and behold I end my nice, calm day with an unexpected guests…my mother-in-law.

Typically I’m pretty good at dodging avoiding the surprise visits from my mother-in-law.  I don’t think in the 14 years that we’ve been married that she has EVER called to see if it’s ok to come over.  She just pops over whenever the **** she feels like it.

Now in order to keep my sanity and let her visit with her grand-kids I try to take the higher road and just ride it out until she’s gone.  Some kind of way my husband finds a way to either sneak out or just happen to not even be home.  It’s his mom so how in the world do I end up trying to entertain her.  

There are a few things I do to handle my surprise visitor:

  • I usually make up some excuse about an appointment, meeting…heck anything to get her leave without coming across as a total b*tch.
  • Typically the first one works pretty good, but when that doesn’t work I have to get more creative.  Sometimes you gotta play sick.  I mean dang some people don’t get a hint…like REALLY don’t get a hint.
  • And when all else fails I just throw up my hands in the air and say “eff it”.  Yea by that point I’m over it and know it can’t last forever.  I may even have a glass or two of wine to make that light at the end of the tunnel show up quicker…LOL!

eff it

How do you deal with surprise visitors?  I’ll go ahead and pour myself a drink while you share!
