I've had two weekends of solid bliss. I hope it continues.
When I was venting about the ill mannered people that come barging in my house dripping oil and stink all over the place, and spitting tobacco in my fine china, etc. and I didn't realize that I was already at my breaking point, and soon afterwards I came unglued. It had taken it's toll on me and my temper had been building over this constant home invasion.
I once again had four people barge in my house un-announced looking for the boys who weren't home; two in the front door and two showed up at the back door, one was bitten by one of my dogs in the foot for doing that. I just got her home from the vets and she was very cranky. She's on steriods again and wanted to kill them and she was being a handful. The other dog almost bit one of them but I grabbed his collar in time and it was 3 minutes of total insanity. I pushed them bodily all back out the door onto the porch and instructed them to never never never come back into my house again without knocking and being invited in. I physically showed them how to knock on a door and WAIT until someone invited them to come in. I guess they thought I had gone nuts. I told them several things about their behavior in my house that was irratating me. I tried to watch my wording and not be hurtful or insulting. They said nothing but acted like they didn't think that they had done anything wrong. They knew by the tone of my voice that I was a ticked off and I even made them open their car doors for the girls. Oh I am sure they will continue that one..........
They have not been here everynight for dinner for nearly two weeks now. Good. I can't afford to keep feeding an army anyhow and I'm sick of cooking for them everynight. Only two of group has been here once since then and did knock on the front door, while the other one waited in the car. I guess to see if I was still dangerous. lol........ When it began to get late, I told them they had to leave and they jumped right up and left quickly.
Oops, I guess I'm the mommy from he** now, but as far as I'm concerend, they can find some manners or go freeload on someone else.
ugh, I can't believe I had the guts to do this!
