She will be gone and you won’t have to worry about coming home to find the doors unlocked, the garbage just sitting by the back door (instead of in the can outside), watching J & B play house in your house, 30 days and it will be back to normal.

No more loud, obnoxious giggling late at night, no more hearing that truly annoying cell phone ring, followed by long conversations RIGHT OUTSIDE MY BEDROOM DOOR, no more schmoopy, sappy (but oddly never hearing I love you), conversations. There will be no more moving my stuff, using my stuff without permission, no more breaking of vacuums and other household appliances. That will be B’s problem if you can hold out for just 30 days.

It will be sweet, sweet peace, if only you take deep breaths and keep reciting, “Only 30 days, only 30 days...”
