She doesnt strike me as being that energetic.
I have made myself a little problem here. He is getting grouchy I guess and she seems to thinks she can spend all of her time here to get away from him. If he is that freakin grouchy I would find a new boyfriend! Jon and I have several computers to fix for friends sitting in the floor and I cannot spend hours entertaining her. I cannot think of anything to talk to anyone about for that long anyway. Jon and I only knew these people in passing til this week. Jon told me it was my own fault for being nice to them but I was only trying to help ..I didnt intend to move her in with me. If my sense of smell is right he is smoking up a storm when she is gone anyway. I opened my dryer last night and the smell of cig was very strong and it was also coming into my bathroom.

time to cut the umbilical cord - you are just going to have to tell her that they are going to have to go for counseling - you really haven't got the time for chit chat beause you have fallen behind in your work - tell her that when things calm down for you that you will call her for a cup of coffee and let it go at that -

or have your coat on and be ready to go out the door when she shows up - eventually she will get the hint

Try to tactfully tell her the truth. It may be hard but in the long run, you can rest easy knowing you handled it rightfully.
