Best Uncle Evar?

So as you know, Im in the process of transitioning work and home from DC to Wisconsin. I actually have an Uncle who lives in the town in WI where my office will be and where I will be moving. (convenient eh?). He mentioned at the last family gathering this summer how excited he was to have us close by and how I could stay at his house anytime while I am traveling.
So as I need to be commuting back and forth every week starting Sep 2nd, I asked him if it'd be ok for me to pretty much stay there M-F every week at least for the first month. I hate to impose even though I know its family and he has made me feel welcome.

Here's his reply:

Lara,

Let me be very clear here, don't ever ask if you can stay again. As your Uncle I'm advising you the next time you "ask" the answer will be no!
Let us know each time you are coming in and we'll have everything ready for you. Remember as long as we have a home you'll have a place to stay. We really enjoy seeing you and look forward to each visit.
Keep in mind what we said about moving in with us until you are settled. We would love it!
Anything in particular you need while you're here? Let us know how we can help in any other way.
Look forward to seeing you at the wedding.

Love, Uncle Mark

He's going to try to smother you with a pillow in your sleep. That is why he wants you close.
 
My uncles are all that way. My uncle in Phoenix tells me to just gives him a ring anytime I want to visit, and he'll get it set up. He takes me out quading/4-wheeling with his raptor 700R's :evil:
 
LOL - thats awesome.

I do hate it when people get offended if you ask to come over to their house or call first. I was raised to always respect people's privacy but some people get offended when you try and respect their space! you cant win.
 
remember, family is like fish they start to stink after 3 days.. just happens..

I'd suggest that you make yourself very scarce, but that's my life experience, it can and will be great, but why add stress to your life, and why put a ? on a possible family relationship that will be much stronger..

issue now is, if you do not stay with them.. they will never forgive you..

welcome to the midwest..
 
Smurf, how weird is this, I'm unpacking today, I just moved in with my uncle... he lives an hour away from school and work, but it is so much nicer than the one bedroom I can barely afford 15 minutes away from campus... house is huge, house sitted there 2 weeks ago, anyway... this is real nice cause even though I have to join a new gym, the old one and campus gym are an hour away, but my shit is very happy. Don't have to pay rent, and he has a lady who comes and cooks and cleans for him 3 times a week, so this is very nice... Only problem is S O hates driving an hour to come out and see me, but this isn't really too much of a problem... lol.

i dont see this having anything other than a positive impact on my relationship with my aunt/uncle. i can see us becoming much closer in fact. i will be scarce because i will be working long hours.
also though, when my uncle graduated from college and went to grad school, he dropped out and moved to the east coast and my parents took him in and my dad got him a job at his company (MONY) and my uncle lived with us for at least 2 yrs prior to getting married and then moving out. so i think in a way he feels like its the least he could do.

My only Uncle is a drunken pedophile, so you're lucky.

Oh and, you never answered my PM, so you're the worst EF friend evah!
