A question for Miss Mannerly

Dear Miss Mannerly, or another of your ilk,

My family, particularly my husband, goes through a metamorphosis for one week out of each month like clockwork. All of them become unbearable. During this week they make my life an intolerable hell for no apparent reason. I have politely asked them all to find another domicile during their odious week per month. They refuse. Would an engraved invitation to leave be in order? Should I rent a motel room for them? You have no idea how I suffer...

I am...

Dear Miss,

This is a temporary thing. They will get better with time. There are also some supplements which are magic. You take them, and the rest of your family behaves better. No one knows why they work that way.

At any rate, eventually they will change. Usually they get better, but occasionally for a few years they get even worse. To get them to behave during that time may require a prescription of another magic medicine which you take but it fixes them. I don't understand it, that must be why it's magic.

Good luck with your family. Don't be too hard on them, I used to be the same way. Remember, people can change. :-)
