Hello everyone. Today I did not have a choice but to receive an unwanted guest, my mother-in-law. No, it is not that I do not want her here or she is not welcome here. It is just that we are still on our slumber when she came. I was not expecting her though because the last time we spoke, she will be coming tomorrow. Do you welcome unwanted guest?

Sometimes it's just way too early in the day to receive guests. Was it a good surprise despite it being too early?

As if I have a choice not to receive her. A good surprise for the kids but of course we are still lazy to move.

Is she just visiting temporarily ? Sometimes we have guests that come at an unexpected time.

@rakski ha ha ha ha I never experienced to have a mother-in-law most of the time I wonder how to have a mother in law and if my mother-in-law will she treated me well or not? I am close with my father-in-law and he told me that if my MIl is alive she is going yo treat me as her own child.

Family is never unwanted. I'm sorry she arrived too early and you weren't ready for her.

It isn't very nice to be caught unawares by a guest. It's a pity she hadn't let you know she was coming.

i always welcome unwanted guest most especially when it's a family member.. I know how you feel when she arrived unexpectedly and you got kinda annoyed by it because you are still in a slumber when she came. She should have informed ahead at least for you to be aware.

Yes, that is what I am expecting. Last night, the last that I know of, she will be coming on Saturday morning and when I wake up this morning, she is at our doorstep. whew

Thankfully I have never had that problem. Any visitors usually call ahead of time and they know my sleep schedule. They can't get into my apartment building if I'm not up to let them in.

All visitors or guests are welcome to my house anytime, provided they don't bring sad stories in order to burrow money

I am not a fan of unexpected guests. Even in the case of my family I ask them to let me know before they come. We could be busy with professional appointments or phone calls and the guests could be a nuisance.

do you and your family, and she, live close to each other? or will it take a trip to go to your house?
