Thanks guys, I'll have to see how things play out again this year. A few of us have had many a conversation about how to deal with her antics, and it came out in my review that I can't stand rooming with her at overnight events as she makes me late.

Lea, I like the idea to put up bunting. I don't think that's too long to have them up. Isn't there Flag Day in June? You'll be decorating for 3 holidays in one go. How's that for planning and being organized and efficient?
