This evening my niece, who lives in eastern Ohio at the moment, called to tell me that she and her almost husband (a long story) will be coming to town on Thursday. She invited me to go to supper with them and of course I accepted. Then, naturally, I invited them to spend the night, or weekend with me. They accepted, at least for one night. At first I was feeling a little flustered, thinking about what I need to do before they get here. Then I realized that they have given me the perfect amount of notice. I have time, between other commitments, to put fresh sheets on their bed, touch up their bathroom, do a little vacuuming and dusting, and that's it. I do not have time to wash all the windows, scrub the floors, plan several meals, do a big grocery shopping and organize a big family get together. Boy do I feel lucky.
