They drink a lot of alcohol and my son-in-law finished off most of the alcohol we had in the house - in one night - and hubby went to get more. We don’t drink that much. They also watch a lot of TV and movies and sports and hubby and I don’t. We read and do a lot of yard work and stuff so I keep buying movies on iTunes to keep them entertained. They live a very different lifestyle than us and it’s very expensive for us to accommodate all of that. We spent $500 in three days - on food and alcohol. It’s too much. We need a better way to accommodate them without spending so much plus we are constantly cooking for them and cleaning up. It feels like we are running a bed and breakfast when they come. It’s not relaxing.
It sounds like they both have a problem with alcohol. Do either of them work?
