[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - these are helpful replies.  She lives about a 3 hour flight away, but she doesn't love to travel and so she likes the longer visits.  I guess part of my confusion is why she would WANT to stay in our house for longer than 2 days - doesn't she want her own space?

I think the best strategy is to make plans with friends the nights she is there - maybe even something as indulgent as seeing a movie by myself!  And I like the suggestion above of just going upstairs after dinner and "getting ready for tomorrow."  [/quote]
Because she spent money on a plane ticket and flew for 3 hours...I would not want to do that for 2 days only either.
I get that you don't do to well with people in your space...can u not just go to your room and close the door?
I don't vastly alter my sked when my MIL comes during a work week...if i want to come home and go to my room...that is what i do...
It is family...if u explain...hey...i need some alone time to decompress...can u not say that??[/quote]
