NO. Stop giving details that could be argued or backfire on you. Why do people think they have to come up with a scenario? Just say “No, that won’t work.” [/quote]

How is someone going to argue with you that your vacation home was winterized? Are they going to ask for the bill? [/quote]

“Oh, that’s not a problem. We don’t need much. When I was growing up, our country home was winterized, but I knew how to turn the water on for a short trip.”

“Okay, so then in April it should be good to go if I want to stay there with my friend.”

“Oh, so when will you open it back up?” [/quote]

This.

OP, just say no and don't give explanations that could backfire on you and prompt these kind of responses.

Just say she’d have to pay to have it professionally redone. Maybe you had the oil drained.  As soon as it becomes more expensive than Great Wold Lodge, she’ll stop asking.

Either that or you all have friends who just really are greedy and grasping.[/quote]
