Anxiety
I'm having a LOT of anxiety right now! Obviously, since it's 4:00pm and I'm procrastinating leaving work when I usually cannot get out of here fast enough. Shane's Dad and his fiance, Rosalee, are in town for 2 weeks starting today, and staying at our house. I've only met his Dad once and that was in Calgary after Christmas in 2008. Shane said he won't be home from work until late as well and that annoys me. He doesn't seem to be interested in the fact that his Dad is here and isn't going out of his way to spend time with him. I don't get it. We've only ever had my family over (for obvious reasons) and they are easy to deal with since they are my family and I don't expect Shane to entertain them when I'm not there, plus they go home at the end of the day, unless it's my dad, then he sometimes stays overnight. I'm really nervous and freaked out right now. I don't know how to be a hostess, I don't know what to do or say. Oh and did I forget to mention the dogs?!? Chaos will ensue. Xena is most likely still barking at them after Shane dropped them off at the house however many hours ago. Or has had a nervous poo accident, she does that. If she doesn't settle down I'm taking her to my Dad's house for the 2 weeks. I had planned to go to the store after work and get some groceries and get gas, but Shane expects me to take them to the grocery store. Why didn't he take them earlier? I'm not a mean person really, I'm just not comfortable in these situations. I've never had company stay with me for any amount of time and especially someone I've only met once, and another someone I've never met. Plus, they speak Newfie! I won't have Shane there to translate for me. I just don't know what to do...
