Finally there gone

Since Seth has been home we really havent had that much time together, he went on a four day leave right after he got back from Iraq. And as much as I didnt want to we went to dallas. We returned back home and he was in his debriefing classes for a few weeks, but still he would go to work, come home eat and go to bed... Well then his 30 day leave came up and it was the holidays and guess where we went...DALLAS.. and we stayed there till the day before he had to go back to work.. Well on the day we were coming back home we got a call from some of our friends that went to Cali for the leave, they told us that there house had flooded and they needed somewhere to stay.So us being the people and the friends that we are, we told them they could stay with us for a few days. Well was that a mistake, not only is it two more adults but a one year old as well. Who by the way has no discipline what so ever. ARRRR... anyways its been one thing after another, i cooked, cleaned, watched there kid so he wouldn't destroy everything in our house, and drove them every where. Oh yeah not only did they not have a house they didnt have a car either. But one good thing about them staying with us, they did help out with food and they filled our cars up with gas. Lets just say i dont think we will ever have friends stay with us unless its an emergency and only for 3 days tops.lol

It sucks because they are our friends and she is like a sister , but our friendship has kinda went to another level. I think we will still be friends it just hurts that they mistreated our house, didn't watch there son closely, and mistreated our puppy.

Now that they are gone seth and I can have our house back, and enjoy some peace and quite..

So please think it over before you let your friends stay at your house..

Have a good weekend

I'm sorry your friends didn't respect you and your property the way they should have. I know it's so frustrating when you try to do something nice for someone and they don't appreciate it in the way they should.

Unfortunately, when you live with friends for an extended period of time, you learn things about them that you didn't already know...and they aren't always good things. I'm glad you have your house back and can once again be just the two of you......well, except for one crazy puppy...... :D

love you both......

Sorry you "Friends" over stayed their welcome. I know how that can be. We once took in a friend and she stayed 4 mos. Finally had to ask her to leave. Don't mind helping someone out,but don't take advanatage of me,my husband or our home. I hope no one ever says that about me.
