[quote=Anonymous]Just be firm about what is and is not possible. I'm sorry, but I'll be cooking and getting things ready for Thanksgiving on Thursday, so won't be able to drive you shopping on Wednesday. If you want to shop, you'll have to talk to (husband, e.g. her son) and see if he can take off work to drive you around. It's too inconvenient for the family for you to sleep in the family room. If the guest room is not suitable, we'll check around and find the nearest motel where you can stay. I've already planned to make a pumpkin pie, so you will not need to make one. As for Aunt Sally, unfortunately, she is not welcome in my house. You'll have to make other arrangements to see her. It's difficult, but these things will only stress you if you let them. And if you cannot handle her or don't want to handle her, tell her to talk to her son (but make sure that you and he are on the same page before you do so).[/quote]
