[quote=Anonymous]OP here, like PP said, I think my mom is trying to justify being at my place but her snide comments hurt. Though my yard is not spotless, it is very clean but not to my mom’s standards. I have a landscaper who comes once a week and I weed and clean up the outdoors on weekends. I think I just need to find a way to tell my mom to just relax and enjoy being at our place. Normally I wouldn’t have family members visit for more than two weeks at a time but my mom is visiting from abroad to spend time with us since DH is unwell - needs 24 hour care. I’m sure my moms means well and she wants to feel helpful and needed - but criticizing me, and the nursing staff and everyone else who is offering help is not helping the situation. She is a very nice person but like I said in my original post, my mom is very rigid. [/quote]
