Hi Galaxy,

Older sisters can be annoying LOL. Especially when they’re grown but not flown! Oh, how I remember the infamous Laundry Wars at my Mother’s House when she was freaking 30 and would stay there all day to “just get (6) loads done”!

The most you can do, I’m afraid, is ask (one for as many times as she gets on the phone): “So, how’s the apartment search going?”” Do you need any extra cash to hasten you to your goal?” “Oh, saving up 2K is easy, I’m going to miss you next week!” “Mom and Dad won’t say so, but I overheard them complaining about the noise.” “You should really do the dishes and get flowers maybe for Mom and Dad as a thank you.”

If she gets subtle (and not so subtle) messages that she’s a guest and this moving back in is not an entitlement, she should be out of there sooner rather than later.

In the meantime, now would be a great time for YOU to travel and go out more! 😉

Good Luck,

Inky
