Tired wife

Dear Queenie,
My husband’s told his best friend from when he was a kid that he and his wife would be welcome to stay with us if they came here to visit. Now they want to stay with us for almost a week.
My husband is retired, but he never gives me any help around the house. I work a full-time job and won’t be able manage to also do all the extra work that you get when you have guests staying with you.
Queenie, how do I explain all this to these people?—Tired wife

Dear Wife,
Your husband should be the one to explain all this to his friend, but if he will not do so, you will have to do it. Give them information about local hotels and/or guest houses and tell them you look forward to seeing them and maybe going out with them while they are visiting.
If your husband does not like all this, tell him his friend and his wife will be welcome to stay with you if he (your husband) does all the extra work that comes with having guests – and spell out for him in detail just what that involves.
