if you can't be sweet to her.....

then I reckon go with Cranky Kitten's option! This amuses me just thinking about it....




seriously though.... as long as you are polite to her, the way SHE CHOOSES to take it, is NOT your problem... you have done your best, and you can't keep letting her have HER way..! it's your home and you are entitled to live there without worrying about unexpected visitors!

what about... "I love catching up with you, but we are going to have to plan it better, because I'm finding the drop in's to difficult"


just don't take responsibility for HER feelings - as long as you are doing your best to be polite - it is her responsibility to manage herself.... and if she can't take what she dishes out herself... well then.... that's her problem too!!
