Abstract
The holidays will be upon us shortly. I know first hand how stressful things can be when the in-laws come to visit. If they mention that they'd like to stay for a few days, take a deep breath, smile and grab a bottle of wine. This is not the time to tidy up the attic. You can't just stuff them away. Do not put them in the basement either. Remember, holidays are about family, although they do seem to bring out the absolute worst in people. I know this because I watch the Hallmark channel and not a single episode resembles our family.
