As we speak, I have house guests from hell. A simple 3-4 night stay has now turned into "We love it here and we've decided to stay 2 weeks!"

A list of DON'Ts to add to the list: 1) Don't say you're coming for a few nights and stay for a few weeks. Hosts have lives and plans, too. 2) Constant griping/sniping/arguing between spouses. Our guests have already had several loud blow-out fights in front of us, their embarrassed and uncomfortable hosts.

But family is family, so we're enduring their mutual hatred as well as the messy teenager who leaves a trail of filth wherever she goes... *sigh*

I can't wait to have my neat, clean, quiet house back!

I am a constant mosquito magnet; 30 seconds outside and I am covered in bites. The only thing that ever worked was DEET, then I accidentally stumbled on this product: All Terrain's Herbal Armor.

The stuff is awesome and it actually repels mosquitos. Just a blend of different essential oils, but it is truly outstanding. The guy who started the company decided it was time to try something new when DEET ate through his backpack (and items in it) when hiking. Excellent product; highly recommend!
