I'm sorry you will have to deal with all of this. It is hard when we are used to the quiet and then have company. I understand your whine.

I got lucky. My stepdaughter had planned to come for a couple of weeks and I knew i would not deal with this well, however, at the last minute she changed her mind. I feel bad for my husband who hasn't seen her in over a year, but I know my nerves would have been shot by the time she left. (She used to live with us.)
