[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, that is annoying, but how many people do you truly need to help each night? Having 4 people crowding the kitchen and "helping" with clean up would drive me more crazy than just doing it myself with H. I'd rather we do it anyway because I know where things go.[/quote]

BIL and SIL were only here one night.

I've said this before and I'll say it again, I don't need the help now, I needed it a few years ago when the kids were babies. I was raised in a household where you help or offer to help, so I still get surprised when she breezes by and ignores the kitchen.

And to the PP---I'm sorry for your loss.  And I agree that perspective is nice and I'm truly grateful that my kids have 3 grandparents that love them, but are we not allowed to express displeasure at anything because someone has it worse?    My boss is awful ( you shouldn't complain--at least you have a job).  My kid is driving me crazy (don't complain--at least your child is alive).   I never said this was my biggest problem, I was annoyed and asking how others worked and I've gotten good (and varying!) answers.[/quote]
