2 bedroom apartment+boyfriend's family in town will possibly be my undoing

I live in a 1 bedroom apartment. Recovering from major surgery in June l, currently on TPN and started back at work last week, but only 4 hours daily.

My mother in law and niece are in town( from New Zealand and Missouri) today or s day 5 out of 10, yes, 10 day stay. Did I mention I live in a one bedroom with my boyfriend and my weird ass dog?

I'm venting because it's not them that's the problem it's me, I think I need to be a perfect host etc and I am running myself into the ground and pretty sure I have an infection that is brewing and physically and feels awful and I have 5 more days of this.

Next month my Dad and aunt (second aunt) will be in town for 1.5 weeks. However when I started saying oh okay you can stay with us I was cut off by both who remind me I have a 1 bedroom thanks but no fucking way we laughed and they're staying at my uncles 16 minutes away.

His mom won't entertain the idea of a hotel or staying anywhere else ( she has kore friends in the area that me and I've been here almost my entire life) so yeah. I just need to scream bit of course, a good host wouldn't do that and besides his niece is 8 and the sweetest little girl ever, trying to hold it down for her especially because his mom is old school and I hate the way she talks to her when she's upset.

Anyways I already (mentally) feel better.

Wish me luck, send me good vibes and say some prayers for me. I need whatever good juju you got to get through the next 5 days without ending up in the hospital/back on tpn full time/ in a straight jacket.
