[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How long of visits are we talking about and how far away do they live? That sounds miserable for more than an afternoon. Don’t they run out of stuff to talk about?[/quote] OP here. We're talking multi-day/overnight visits, about four nights. AND an entire week at the beach every summer. Yes, they do run out of things to talk about! They repeat stories, observations, opinions, and general blather. I swear to you, hand to God, my IL has asked me whether I bake cookies using butter or Crisco at least 25 times. That is not an exaggeration.[/quote] You are a far better person than I am. I couldn’t do it - we use the time my parents visit to catch up on some things. I would not be willing to completely clear the calendar for that long. You need to speak up kindly but firmly. Don’t expect it to be well received, and that’s ok. I would just start planning stuff and do it. [/quote]
