Her actions tell me that she wants to go and relax in peace and have some dogs with her. She has her mother and aunt come and visit for a day (different days). She invited me for a day and overnight stay as well.
The party is the last Friday before she leaves. The usual friends from work including her bosses and couple of good clients. I don't see too much wrong with that other than the fact that she is burned out from work and wanted to get away. And truly I don't like my dogs being there in the midst of all the chaos of a party. They are not off-leash dogs and I can see a accident in the making. When we have had a lot of people in the house it was always difficult to host while watching every move. Who leaves the front door open, who wonders through the garage, etc.
But you are right, there is time for action from my part. Just have to figure out how to get my mojo back.
