Couldn’t agree more that a Mother-in-law is the perfect criticizer! My ex-MIL always took the time to tell me my house wasn’t clean enough. Funny that her’s was a pigsty that smelled really bad. That’s why I just laughed at her whenever she told me that.
what’s that green thing in panels 3 and 4 she’s poking at? Just kidding, I’m old enough to know but I bet there are some out here that have never seen an old corded phone with a dial.
A pre-pulse rotary dial phone? Is that plastic or bakelite? Wouldn’t that date this back to the mid to late 70’s? And she’s using a pencil to dial.

Shhhip-thp-thp-thp
Shhhhhhhip-thp-thp-thp-thp-thp-thp-thp…”

Exactly GEE1A! Mother might help clean; Mother-in-Law is the perfect motivator.

Now you not only have to clean but provide a good meal. I guess you’ll have motivation now.

She must be out of control not to do anything at home. She might yell, “HELP ME!”
