Aunt Traci asked if she could move in with us. So we had a chat about that. The little woman was all for it right off the bat. The little man was not. He didn't understand. He thought it meant she was going to live with them instead of me. Once he understood that I wasn't going anywhere then he was fine with the idea.
So we told her yes she could. But there are a few ground rules right up front. I want no misunderstandings. I'm not her parent or her keeper. I do not need to know every thing she is doing and I'm not going to worry about her. She is a grown up and I expect her to act like one. I think maybe she appreciated that.
Then there is no marijuana here. If she chooses to partake in that...it has to be somewhere else. Now I know it is legal. But this is our home and we don't like the smell of it. We don't like how it makes people unmotivated, not really there, etc. I'm a caretaker of two littles. I'm not looking out for grown ups also.
Her boyfriend is naturally welcome to visit. He does not, nor will he ever live here. We do.
She agreed and said she would be happy to babysit on occasion. So there we go. She is moving in next week. We shall see how it goes.
