First of all, no one invited her and secondly we really do not want to entertain her. I am sure this has happened to at least one of you...how do you handle? I hate to say "Hey, I don't want you here."
Salpal - Unless she has said something in e-mails that you haven't posted here, it doesn't say that she wants to stay with you.

I'd e-mail her back and tell her to let you know where she will be staying and maybe you can have a lunch or dinner together. I read that to be that she will coming down to visit TV. Who knows, you might be going on a cruise at just precisely the same time she is planning on coming.

We have friends that live in Orlando and whenever we would visit Orlando, we would e-mail them, but had no intention of staying with them. We would get together a time or two while we were there, but no staying with.

Well Holy Hat! And I thought that was the correct way to clean plates. I learn new stuff all the time from this website.

Friends of ours( aggrevating houseguests) went to visit other friends in Orlando. They called us from Orlando and said their friends house was full of cocaroaches, in, the cuboards, drawers, closets, you name it. Well, they left in a big hurry and said they will never go back there. Problem was, they called us and wanted to come to The Villages, I went into a panic attack and shot 50 excuses at them why they couldnt visit us.

Some people sure take it to extremes!

Nonie,

You need to find out where the people in Orlando bought those plastic bugs.
