My mil looks after ds once a week while I work, she drives considerable distance to do this and I am very grateful for that as ds loves it and it saves me a fortune in nursery fees. I have no complaints about her but this...
I got back from work a few weeks back and went to my bedroom to get changed, opened my drawers to find that all my clothes had been removed and then folded into neat piles and rearranged in my drawers! The psycho theme tune rang in my ears! I feel it's an invasion of my privacy and that our room would naturally be considered off limits to this sort of rearranging (which she is prone to in other areas of the house which I find bad enough). I didn't say anything at the time but chewed ear of dh who sympathises but doesn't want to upset his mum (nor do I as I don't want her to stop looking after our ds!)
Then this week came home to find she had been in my wardrobe and rearranged everything in there too.
There are things in our room I wouldn't want her to see (normal married couple type stuff) and am pissed off she is even in there! I have tried shutting the door to make it clear the room is off limits but obv not worked. Am loathe to put a lock on my own door in my own house.
Anyone else experienced anything like this? aibu and how to deal?
