DP has been poorly for a while.Today he was home for a day on "leave" from hospital.He is not well and I have been persuading him to get back in and his temp is sky high and he is vomiting.He has been yelling at me not to nag.He will not listen
In between all this I have got ds (4) and dd (2) with sn who needs pretty constant supervision,to get up,breakfast,dress.etc etc
Then I have the usual chores to do hoovering,cooking,cleaning.
So I wonder out loud if dps brother would mind if I rang them and asked if they would pick up a few bits for me in Tesco when they do their weekly shop.So dp mentions this to MIL who jumps in and says "Oh i'll get it if I'll leave @ anD @ (2 nephews 5 and 7) at yours"as she has the grandchildren on a Sunday.I inwardly groan as I know that despite doing a list MIL will not get what I want.Also much as I love my nephews I can really do without 4 kids to look after.So I dutifully do the list (There is no arguing with MIL) asking for Tesco value everything (We are on a budget cos of dps illness).SO the kids are dropped off ("for half an hour").Two and a half hours later during which time I have fed and watered,as no one said if they needed dinner or not, and entertained the children making tents they return,and sure enough there are branded goods,non bio wash powder when I asked for bio,tins of beans when I ask for tomatoes.(I am sure she does it on purpose).Now I KNOW she is nice to do the shopping but when she gets back she asks me to come and check if shes got everytrhing and when I say not unreasonably"I can't at the moment,I'm feeding @ but I will in a minute,thanks" (was feeding the children,had dd on lap she still neeeds help) she went off in huff,without a word.I wish I had never opened my mouth.So AIBU??I feel like crying.She makes it abundantly clear I am not doing a good enough job for her son,I am sick of it,all.I want to go and scream and cry and rant.Aaaarghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
