[quote=Anonymous]That's just family. I feel this way about my ILs and my own family. It's not personal to anyone. It's that it's hard emotional work to do what you are describing -- host many adults in your home and accommodate their needs and maintain relationships, etc. Just plan to do some stuff to recharge afterwards and you'll get back to yourself. And when you can, schedule their visits at times where you know you'll have energy to spare (I know this visit was scheduled around your DH's work travel so it might have been harder to mentally prepare for it).[/quote]
