My MIL is a nice woman but she has the habit of instructing me all the time. Like, she all the time tells me to wash hands when I go to the kitchen, when we are done with our meal, she wants me to clean the table right away. I am a laid back person. I do everything at my own pace. No matter how much I try to clam myself down, at times it becomes quite annoying. How do I tell her that I have a way of living and do not interfere in that?
