After they got married, she moved in with my brother, and then they moved back in with my parents for a while. My mom works a stressful job and my dad has medical issues. They would clean the entire kitchen, and then Jamie would come down and make herself something to eat and just leave the dishes in the sink. She NEVER washed a dish, not even when living there for free. I don't think my brother minds sharing in the housework, but she just doesn't help at all. When they were at my parents, my brother did their laundry 90% of the time, when they cooked, it was him cooking, he did the cleanup. My parents have a housekeeper every other week, so they didn't even have to clean the bathroom or vacuum. Now that they have moved, all my mom wants is for them to come wipe out the drawers in the bathroom, as she cleaned that bathroom really good before they moved in. They moved out Jan 1, and it still hasn't been done, and they have a bunch of crap there still. So yeah, she's just lazy. She acts just like her mom!

Sorry to open a can of worms. I know how frustrating it can be.....my sister in law doesn't exactly rub me the right way either. I agree that's very inconsiderate to not pick up after ones' self while staying at someone else's home. Maybe she will mature, I did. Marriage was really good for me.
