He arrived last night at 11:00PM...the fifth night of his 5-night deposit. DH is taking control and I am staying in the background cooking, cleaning and taking the "balance due" to the bank.
For some reason he thought he would be checking out on Monday and DH gently showed him a copy of his confirmation showing that his scheduled departure is on Sunday, BEFORE 10:30AM.
So far so good...keeping our fingers crossed..
We had last night what I'm going to term 'jello guests'- the kind who just keep slipping thru your fingers when you try to nail them down! Left early this morning because they had to have a specialty drink. Came back and asked a bunch of questions about things to do in the area. Decided to go back to their room at almost 11 to 'talk things over'. Then they oozed out of the house, one at a time. Then back in. Then back out and I still don't have the keys. Then back in to use the bathroom. OK, way after check out now but their room wasn't cleaned so what's the big deal.
When I left at almost noon they were still oozing around. But the door combos were reset and I was outta here!
We tend to get about 2-3 of these/month. The guests who don't seem to be able to tell time. Who always have 'one more thing' they have to look up on the computer or one more question to ask or one more mug of tea to drink or one more bathroom break.
They're all of a piece, too. Kind of ethereal. Don't answer in full sentences. Get lost halfway thru a thought. I always wonder what they do for a living.
