I have been married 1 yr, and my mother-in-law lives with us. I love her to death, but at the same time, she drives me crazy! I don't think she believes in boundaries or minding her own business. I also think she's allergic to cleaning up after herself. When I get off of the phone, she asks me who it was and what they wanted. I've had to start taking my calls in another room. I'm not a clean freak, but I will not live in a dirty house.I came home from work to find her here alone(as she had been all day),with overflowing trash, spills and crumbs all over the counters and black grease marks on the carpet from her work shoes.(that she tried to blame on my cat).The carpet incident happened the day after I had shampooed the entire house.Then she acts as though she deserves a medal for doing one load of laundry(folding not included). My husband thinks i over-react.There are many other things she does that irritate me, but not enough room to type. Am I over reacting? How should I handle this?
