[quote=Anonymous]My parents and ILs both have our door code, even though they do not live local per se. My parents live 8 hours away and have the code but would only use it if DH and I were still at work when they arrived, or when we drove to a restaurant or something separately and they arrived back first. MIL lives about 1.5 hours away and same deal…or so we thought.

A few months ago we changed our code after having two different families watch our house/bring in packages/feed our cat (the cat sadly died a few months ago so we do not have one now). We trust these friends but also thought to change the code after there was a break in a few houses down, just being careful. A few vendors have also occasionally gotten the code so we thought let’s change it.

Anyway, we’re out of town this weekend. MIL called yesterday furious because she “stopped by” even though she knows well and good we are out this weekend, and was mad that we changed the code without telling her. Turns out that because we live close to a few stores she likes and a Trader Joe’s, she’s taken it upon herself to let herself into our house to go to the bathroom and “take a break before driving home” on some of her shopping excursions, without ever asking or telling us. She’s also stopped by before while we were home, but always called first.

I cannot believe she’s been in our home when we were at work or out of town and didn’t know. DH is confused and pissed. So am I! He told her straight up she will not be getting the new code unless she has a specific reason to have it and we know exactly when she’ll be using it. Unbelievable.[/quote]
