Mother-in law babysitting children

[Cowgirl]

My BF's mom came over for dinner and brought us some dessert. We hadn't finished eating dinner yet....and while she was waiting for us, she started folding the load of laundry sitting on the couch. I told her she didn't have to fold them...and she said she didn't mind. I love that woman.

she started folding the load of laundry sitting on the couch.

Oh, they can fold the laundry all they want. It's the washing of it that I find intrusive.

You know, though? Larry's mother would never do that in a million years. If I had laundry laying out, she would be polite and pretend she didn't see it. "Oh, Vrai," she would say, "You always know how to make people feel so welcome in your home and that dinner was just delicious! "

I love THAT woman

You know, after I got done being pissed, I'd probably have to have some fun with this. Put the knicknacks in the refrigerator, put the Comet in with the dishes. When Mom puts them back in their "rightful" place, do it again the next day. See how long it takes before you can drive her crazy.

The nic nacs in the fridge got me...

Okay my husband and I have been fighting ever since his mother has been babysitting our kids while we are at work. My problem is that she baby sits them at our house. I don't like the fact that every single day she is over there. On top of it she does things that drives me crazy like moving things around to where she wants them, washing my clothes, the list goes on and on. He says I'm acting like a "little girl". I asked him to ask her to just babysit the kids. He won't do it. He says there is nothing wrong with what she is doing. It's driving me crazy. We can't afford to put them in daycare right now. Am I wrong and am I acting like a little girl or should he respect me and ask her to stop?

Can I have your MIL? Will trade you. Mine will not babysit on her life! Your very lucky.
