Finally, I can breathe!

I've been wanting to post for awhile but I've been afraid of getting caught. My mother in law, or moster in law, more appropriately has been here since last Monday. Now, don't get my wrong, I love her to death. Our relationship has come a long way from where it once was but she still drives me crazy.

You all know that I'm pregnant, I already have 2 boys and I babysit 4 extra kids during the day. Well on top of all this I chave been taking care of her too. I've been cooking and cleaning for 4 adults and 3 kids for a week and a half. (I also have my cousin's son here for spring break). She is more than happy to let me do all the work. She hasn't once offered to help cook or clean up after a meal.

A typical day for her is to roll out of bed around 9. I think she only gets up then because the kids wake her up. She then plops in front of the TV with a cup of coffee that I made. When I've finished breakfast she gets up dishes up and then plops back in front of the TV. She spends 3-4 hours on the computer then she goes back in her room for a nap. She finally gets out of her pajamas around 4pm.

It totally drives me CRAZY. She yells at the boys all the time. I give them something, she takes it away. I'm telling you, she is crazy!

But, she finally left tonight to go stay with her other son. Hopefully, she will stay there until she leaves town Sunday. It is a good thing she went over there cause I don't think I could have held it together for another day. I've never been around someone so unwilling to help, even with her own grandchildren which she NEVER sees.

So, I can breathe, for a little while at least!
