Being an only child

So, I really didn't think I needed this as much as I am using it.  It's hard to stay focused on your self and positive when you have 'negative' forces in your life.  When I say negative I don't mean bad people.  They are actually wonderful people, my parents.  However, 6 months out of the year when they live 25 minutes from me, I don't get a break.  They are over constantly.  Not only do they come over unannounced, but they don't even isten to me if I tell them not to come over.  It has been building up for a while and I would like to tell them how I feel.  I don't want to hurt thier feelings, but at the same time.  I need space.

Maybe I will set that as a goal.  Tell my parents (several times, they don't listen to me) that I need space.

Today was a great day though.  I stayed positive and so did my husband.  Thanks to TOOLS ! !
