I Found the Secret to Living Happily with In-Laws

The first time your parents walk into your home unannounced is fine; the seventh and eighth time? That's a bit of a problem. The first rule I required when we all moved in is that you have to knock if you're going into the other person's space.

Plus, my husband and I both work from home and can't afford to have calls interrupted unexpectedly.

I didn't want to move back to the city we were living in before our travels, as I grew up there, and I was worried it would feel like a step backward.
