I like having guests at our house, and I think it's very positive for my children to make friends, but why do they need to bring them home all the time? I'm a homemaker, and I love to clean the house. As soon as my husband and 3 kids have left in the morning, I spend my day cleaning, and I love it. But is it really worth it when the house is always full of half the school?
I suggested my family to not bring home anyone on Tuesdays and Thursdays. But that doesn't work. I was optimistic and invited two neighbouring ladies, Esther Grumblin and Bertha Frocks, over for lunch this Tuesday. Esther died to tell about her recent wedding. Then my teen daughter Lucild returned from school with a girl I never saw before - I still don't understand why Lucild brought anyone at all as she was off 1 hour later for her job. Lucild left and that girl Sofie (?) stayed to watch noisy dance chanel on tv. Then my twin kids returned from school, they brought a boy living in the hood, he did behave pretty well, but I couldn't ask my kids to do their homework. Then, while Sofie insulted me until I cried, my husband George returned from work, and he did bring a friend I never met before. Now the sofa was full, there was no way my two guests could get entertained. I asked Sofie to leave, politely of course, then my teen Lucild returned from work - and guess if she brought home a friend or not? Yes, of course she did!!!!!
We live in one of those standard Simmerville Mega Starter homes. It's a very practical home, many room and not too expensive, but it gets pretty much with all those guests when I was wanting to treat my guests.
Sorry for writing this much, I was carried away. Do anyone have a tip? Will I need to accept this every day until my kids move out? If so, is there a resting home where I can clean my room in peace and quiet?
