I have 4 extra people living in my home.

How will I ever get this done?

But I will. I can't turn down people with kids that have no were to live.

Let me just tell you some things about these people then while their not here I am going to cut my fabric.

An 11 year old goes to the bathroom and gets you know what on the wall.

Did he clean it? NO I had to tell him to go clean it.

No one cleans up after themselfs. I ask them that when they are done eating to please rinse their dish and put it in the dishwasher. I came home today and 3 bowls are on the table with milk in them. Cloths are on the floor. Kids are 16, 13, 11. Mother seems to be 8. She smokes and now lets the 16 year old smoke. I told them, he will not smoke in my house. Dog was put in my basement because my dog does not get alone with other girl dogs. And now guess whats on my floor down there???????

I need to go get drugs.

Sorry, back to the quilt blocks while they are away in the car I GAVE them.

You are a MUCH nicer person than I! I hope that you are able to get through this. Don't, I repeat, DON"T leave your quilting room santuary until they leave!!! Just kidding.... here's prayers coming your way!

Gin, I can empathize with you. Been through that a time or two myself. Unless they are familgy members it's time for them to go! And even if they are family members, if they cannot respect the rules of your house, then out they go. I would never have given them a car, because if they get in an accident, even with insurance, unless that person is listed on your policy, they are not covered and you are liable for any damages and/or injuries.

Surely there are agencies that can provide some form of assistance to them somewhere in the state. If they cannot properly look after their own dog, then the dog needs to be rehomed.

Don't be a doormat for them, regardless of the circumstances they are in. Like my mother always said, company like fish, begin to smell after three days.

You are in my prayers, and I hope for a quick resolution to your situation.
