I like the approach of letting her know she should let you know when she's coming over - it's YOUR house. And, add the example you said - what if YOU (W) were coming out of the bathroom and saw Gardener standing in your kitchen unannounced?
So you vote a and b? Good idea.

Thanks, gima. I would appreciate your thoughts on my ramblings of yesterday if'n ya get a chance, buddy.

With fruit, with weeds even; but gather them
