My Christmas Prediction...

 Well, it looks like my housemate might be here for Christmas. Oh, yay. You know, I really don't mind her when she's in the here and now, and not texting or chatting with someone else when she's supposed to be 'spending time with you', but its her mouth I worry about at Christmas. We're going to have at least 15 people here, one of which is our 8 year old niece, and the housemate has no filter - like, AT ALL. She's always saying stuff and then asking, "Oops, did I say that out loud?" and then laughing about it. So, I'm TRYING to get my cousin out here so she's got someone to chat with who won't be offended by her mouth. I'm just hoping that he and his 'girlfriend' will be able to come out and not get snowed in.

I found a way to get her off the computer in the office though. :) I spent about three days, and reformated one of my old laptops we still had - it was loaded with viruses cause I hadn't kept the antivirus up to date cause I hadn't used it in a while, and wouldn't let me do anything with it, so I had no choice but reformatting, So I did that, got all the updates on it, got it setup with wireless internet, updated a browser, put utorrent on it cause she wants to get the Vampire Diaries so I already set it up to download them. Its not something I'm doing for free though. I told her $75 and she can have it. I also put our Microsoft office suite on it so she can write. I gotta call Microsoft to activate it some time within the next 29 days. I told her she's going to have to buy a battery for it or she won't be able to have it unplugged. I gotta look up the price of the batteries for her. But I'm glad I found a way that she'll be out of the office so PA can be on the office computer without issues since he'll be starting back to school after the first of the year.

In other news, I'm almost done with my Lego Harry Potter 5-7 walkthrough. I'm wondering if I can talk PA into testing it out when its done before I post it. LOL I'm not sure I want a fourth game so soon after spending so much time on it.  If anyone wants to volunteer to test it out, you're more than welcome. Just ask.

Why not just kick her out considering most of your blogs talk about all the issues you have with her. Just because you were friends with someone years ago doesn't mean you have to he now.

Lay the verbal smackdown on her. Tell her exactly what she needs to do in order to survive under your roof, or she's out. Give her a deadline too, that if you don't see enough progress by X date, her ass is out.

You already know where I stand on this. Like I said before, no one can take advantage of you unless you let them. Its one thing to help someone get back on their feet, its another to let them impose and make your life miserable. I'm going to make a prediction myself. She's going to take that laptop and you won't see a penny for it, plus you'll wind up buying her a new battery.
