[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have some family coming into town that expect to stay with us. Normally that would be great except they did not check dates with us ahead of time. We are working every day they are in town, and the time they selected is during a super stressful schedule.  I feel obliged to host and trying to work up gracious hospitality, but it’s not quite happening. What’s the norm for family that treats you like a BnB? Are we expected to provide meals and snacks for  their small children? Is one family meal and leaving things for them to make breakfast enough?

And yeah, it’s in-law family members. lol and I really like them but the timing is wrong.[/quote]

Why are YOU on the hook to cook, clean, entertain, etc.? You can open your door, but if they want clean sheets and towels and home-cooked meals, why are YOU on the hook, and not DH? Let your husband host his family. If there are any questions or complaints, tell them that if they want the Maison Sue experience, they need to check and plan with you first, because this time wasn't a good time for a visit.
