Would you let your MIL clean your house?

Im really ill. I think its so bad its man flu Crying or Very sad

Actually its either tonsilitis or a sinus infection, didnt make it to drs but got anti-b's over the phone. Lying tonight contemplating whether its swine flu but think im being a bit overdramatic Embarassed

Im sore all over, runny nose, swallowing razor blades, sore head/neck/face/jaw/, sweaty, coughing.... you get the idea Rolling Eyes

Mum came over to give me a hand this morning and helpfully pointed out house was a bit of a shit tip, dishes lying about, washing piled up in bedrooms, no hoovering done, toys everywhere (Iv been ill since tue night, OH does bare minimum and ive been in bed in a coma... well close enough tongue

).

Had a bit of a row with OH there before he went home about state of house and how he'd lay all night watching south park instead of cleaning. He got off his arse eventually & cleared a bit & I managed to do a load of washing. He texted there to say his mum will come over tomorrow and clean for us....

Now if it was my mum id be ok, cos I could tell her to feck off, I just feel a bit uncomfortable about MIL being given free reign to pry? I can stay out of way in bedroom but we live in bungalow & can just imagine her in and out. I know she trying to be kind, and I could do with a hand, but the house isnt THAT bad....

How would you feel about MIL doing your washing/few hrs mopping/dusting etc?

I would let anyone who offered come and clean for me to be honest!! If there are jobs that you dont feel conmfortable about her doing then say oh don't worry about doing so and so but it would really help if you don't mind doing....*insert massive list here** Very Happy
