parents
My parents are coming to visit, and I am preparing myself for the occasion. No, I am steeling myself for it. They're coming into town on 04.October, staying until the 12th (at least).
I'm getting ready for the possible, even probable guilt trips and so on that I'll get from my mother ... the insults, even, because no I haven't lost weight, and no I haven't cut my hair, and yes my house is still a fucking wreck. All of my energy gets sucked out through the massive cracks in the foundation, which is utterly horrible from a Feng Shui standpoint. Andf yes, on a visit some years ago she insulted me as the first thing she said after stepping in my house.
Of course, I am lazy, we are lazy, and that doesn't help matters any. But still. The cracks can't be good for the energy in the house.
Anyway. Parents. Thankfully they won't be staying with us; they never do. I think they know that they'd get a stake through the heart if they did. It's not that I don't love my folks, or not get on with them -- but I can only take so much of them.
This will be the first time I've seen them in ... two years I think. I am preparing myself for the best!
