My friend cannot seem to grasp the meaning of my words. 'I do not want to be disturbed, I am ill and want to sleep as much as possible'. She translates this to mean that she will descend upon me without prior warning, with 4 snotty jumping kids in tow, to deliver a platter of homebaked food to make me feel better. I have an effing cook, I am an effing cook, I am so effing organised that I have 6 course meals for the next 10 years stacked in chest freezers. Beyond that I have an effing maid to organise me should my best laid plans fall apart.
This friend has done this so many times that I am starting to wonder how clear I have actually been. During this summer I was rather ill, and it was a delicate subject. Emotionally and physically I was at the end. I was not in the mood for mind games so when I said "I will contact you when I feel up to it", I really did mean it.
Did she turn up? Oh YES. and she had the audacity to say that she had been trying to call but could not get through.
She is a nice friend, when she leaves me alone.

First of all - welcome back!
Second - sorry to hear that you've been so ill.
Third - tell your maid that if your effing friend arrives on the doorstep, she is to tell her that you are sleeping and cannot be disturbed!
Relocate!
Yes, welcome back. I love the happy, cheerful design.
With friends like this who needs enemies eh? And I guess we all have them, I've had the same problem.
nzm has it - tell the maid to say no-one, but no-one, is allowed in.
Welcome back and hope you get well soon CG ... we missed you around here ..
