So my SIL2 is comming over for the next few days. She tells my kids to help me out so they don't have to come visit a "dirty house". Fine if that's what she calls an attempt to motivate my house to look up to "her standards"

Honestly, I normally do not feel bad! Is that bad that I don't feel bad! I guess I see it as they put themselves into this situation and they know people are shady, and they know they MIGHT go home. Now I'm not talking about the...
