[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here, thanks for the understanding. Yes the "grandparents" are my in laws, healthy and in their 60s. Yes my husband has a hard time taking to them about anything other than current events.

They're just cheap and seem to flip a fancy mega-eater switch when being a houseguest. They don't tip, they don't vacation, and they don't even go to weddings unless they are put up.  And again, they have plenty of money, they are just more than happy to sit back and try to have everyone else pay for them.  I don't know how they got this way.

8 more days to go.[/quote]

If it weren't for the fact that my ILs don't stay with my BIL/SIL I'd swear you were my SIL.

This is my ILs to a tee. It drives me batty. They come to "vacation" at our house. When I get home from work dragging two kids from their respective daycares/schools, they don't even say hello to me, they ask "What are you making us for dinner?" And they proceed to eat it all. And must eat all day because if I shop on Sunday, by Tuesday all the food I've bought for the week is gone, to the point that there isn't even a banana left to give my kids for a snack before dinner. No matter how much I've bought, so it's not a matter of just buying more food. It's like it's their personal mission to eat everything that's not nailed down as quickly as possible.

After a decade, I'm finally so fed up, that for their next "vacation" I've made plans to go away, by myself, in the middle of it, since they are staying for 3 weeks. I[b] just can't with a 3 week visit. [/b][/quote]

but your pocketbook will still be bleeding out money to your selfish houseguests. [/quote]
