we’re under attack!!
Wednesday, January 25th, 2006The title’s an exaggeration. No one I know is under attack. But my in-laws are coming. So it is in a way similar to having ala-War of the Worlds feeling about the whole situation.
Don’t get me wrong, I like my in-laws. So far we’ve never fought, exchanged rude words, there’s no animosity. But living on my own for the last 14 years I dread the invasion of my privacy. There’s this paranoia suggesting my rules will be broken & my home is no longer mine to control. I don’t rule the roost anymore. It’s different when my parents were here. Since they’re MY parents, I still rule. I’m still the boss. But now… well you get the picture.
It will make other people cringe, some would raise their brows at me, but I am bracing myself for some unforeseen & disastrous scenarios.
