Guess what!!! The MIL called TODAY and INFORMED us that she and her husband (not dh's dad - he died and MIL remarried 2 years ago) are COMING TO VISIT from Florida (driving) for 4 days and arriving Saturday!!! Ummmmm hello, we've got activities, the house looks like a hurricane hit, and I really resent being forced to spend my week cleaning the house because she decided to "grace us with their presences". Oh, and did I mention that dh and the kids are going to visit them for 4 days the first weekend in October? There also isn't a whole lot of room in the budget right now for fixing things up or buying new things. I'm just barely keeping up with things the way it is. I was feeling good about balancing working out, practicing piano, and taking babysteps toward getting the house in shape. I hate to disrupt all that because she decided to visit. Her husband has children who live within a few hours of us so they're going to see them for a few days after they visit us. I am sooooooo mad I could spit!!! I need to get past this and start getting organized for their visit but that will take a day or so. I can start making lists in th mean time and at least I'll be making progress.
Dh is not pleased either and he let her know that but they're driving all the way from Florida and her husband is looking forward to seeing his grandchildren who live within a few hours so we don't really have much choice. I'm still really upset!!!!
Aaaaaaaack!!!!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!

Ok first of all I am LOL at the "The MIL" comment!
WOW, how rude to call you less than a week before their visit--what is wrong with people!

I'm sorry this is stressing you out so much.
My parents are coming tomorrow, but they told us about a month ago.
Is asking them to stay in a hotel an option??? Not sure how much that would help, but at least you wouldn't have to get the guest room or wherever they would be staying, cleaned up.
GF...don't stress about cleaning your house, let them arrive and see you warts and all!
My opinion?
