Really it's time for U TO GO!!!!!!

Whew... I have a cuzn who pops in my home town a few times out of the year. Normally, I wouldnt care when he would come  and go because his TAIL never stayed with me. One time he stayed with a relative for a MONTH. Now all of my cuzn we WORK so we cant sit and entertain his tail when he comes and do his surprise POP visits. I asked in general conversation how long does he think he is gonna be here, he was like a week or so...Which I know now means two. He got some nerves, he also brings his PITBULL PUPPY with him. I am ready for him to HIT IT!!!!! I think that you should only stay at your MAMA and DADDY's house for a week or better. I am just a first cousin. love him dearly but he is about to over stay his welcome. How long do you think when you visit a relative you should stay. I think the third day you should be packin up....What do you think?

I think a couple days is enough...otherwise, I need some rent!

I don't impose on family or friends longer than a weekend. I would expect them to show me the same courtesy. Certainly, when I impose, I am pet free.

I hope he and puppy leave soon. Good luck!

Right leave!!! or that dog will be put in the Humane Society. Some people got some nerves!!!!

I know what you mean.  Family is something.  Tell him he should be gone.  He should have the courtesy of calling ahead of time.  Family can be trifling.

Triffling is mildly speaking. See the thing is some family think, OH she is so happy to see me..Hell I dont seen yo a$$ now BYE BYE...

LOL! I think the first day...a guest (Family or friend) should come prepared to stay at a hotel unless you are my one and only favorite cousin who is very much like me. I have been known to put family up at a hotel for one or two nights and then they have to fend for themselves.  I am too particular to have folks staying with me. I like things to be in their place and I have routines. I need to with two girls...plus that creates a whole new dynamic in itself! I think you are doing good. I know its hard to say no to family.....so the only thing you can do is make his stay so miserable...in a nice way..LOL! so that next time he won't even make you an option! Hope you get relief soon!   

ETA: My mom stayed with me for a while....and it drove me nuts...something about too many grown folks under one roof that doesn't add up!

Yep, 3 days at the MOST!  Kinfolks can get on nerves the most.  You love em and errything, but dangit sometimes they can be the pits.  Speaking of pits, he's bringing a puppy too??  I hope he AT Least, sets up an areas outside for it.  If not, hope it's potty trained.  I'm praying for strength right now cause my in-laws are coming over Chrstmas to stay till May and I know it want be fun, but I pray for patience for wifey's sake.

When I was in the military, I used to stay with grandma every time I went home.  It was no more than 3 days.  Then I started bringing wifey along and we cut it to about 2 days and maybe one with my auntie.  Now, since I got two kids and wifey, we book a room.  We might stay 1 day with grand, but after that it's the local Inn.  I know they don't mind, but I got small kids that can easily get on some nerves.

The nicest kinfolks can start to get on your nerves after a while.  Good luck with this one Boo.

Wow until MAY...Good luck to you as well!!!

(lol) Haaaa.  Thanks; I'll dam sho need it starting about mid February
