Okay, Here We Go Again
As a friendly person, I love having people and friends come over to my house. Friends do bring a breath of fresh air, and catching up with them and telling stories can reduce your stress. The only time I don’t like people coming over is when they come unannounced or when they tell you they’re coming over but they’re only minutes away from your house. And yes, I’m talking about my mother-in-law.
No matter how tough of a guy you are, you will get stressed when your mother-in-law tells you she’ll visit despite the short notice. The only thing you can do is to let out a big sigh and just start preparing the house for her arrival. And an important part of the preparation? Give yourself a pep talk. “Don’t let her get to you. You are still the head lion of this pride.” or something like that.
