Mil is very traditional and likes to take on the role of cooking cleaning etc.
It rubbed of on dp who used to be a lazy so and so but is getting much better.
He's selling his house as we're moving in together, we're emptying the house and sorting through stuff and mil turns up to 'help ME clean for him'.
I wanted to sort through stuff and go to skip/charity shop, was no point cleaning as not moving out for 3 weeks so imo it will need going over again due to moving furniture touching up bits of paint/sanding down etc. she took it upon herself to hoover rooms I'd already done.
I wanted to do the skip runs but ended up feeling obliged to wipe doorframes while dp got on with the man jobs.
My nose was pushed out of joint and now there is talk of her coming to help me clean when my baby comes.
Dp and I have lower standards than her but are not complete slatterns. I want dp to step up and this does not help him to do so. It just gets on my nerves but I'm supposed to be grateful for the help.
