[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Overreacting. They live 4 hours away -- that's as far as Pittsburgh. Being old people, they are probably worried about the traffic and also any weather along the way. Do you expect them to be able to time a 4-hour drive so they arrive at 5pm? You're asking them to do half their trip during rush hour![/quote] OP here. Around dinner time is when they prefer to arrive at our house for visits. They like to take their time on the trip (they have a favorite lunch place along the way) and like to go to TJ's, etc. I would have had no problem at all if they said that noon or so works best, even if DH and I weren't home. Whenever they want to arrive is fine, just no reason at all not to discuss that with us when the plans were made. The timing is not an issue for me, at all. It's the lack of communication and common courtesy. I would never enter someone else's house without their knowledge and permission, unless it was truly an emergency situation.[/quote]
