How to separate unwanted advice

I love my MIL but often times she’s butting into our household and telling me how I’m not being a Prov. 31 woman. I try to be and Lord knows I’m my own worst critic. She’s constantly telling me how my house should look, how much my husband should do in our household, etc.

I do all the handyman stuff in our house on top of caring for our child and the house. It’s to the point now that my husband has even told me how we don’t have traditional biblical roles. But I don’t see him complaining when I fix things that are broken. If things need done in the male role he does them halfway because he was brought up not doing them.

So I feel like I have to do the female and male and I’m constantly being told I’m doing things wrong as to how Hod wants them to be.

If I try to do one thing something else suffers and if I try to do that thing other thing the other one suffers. I’m constantly trying to self sacrifice and I’m exhausted. Then being told I shouldn’t be. I don’t get it. 😞 Oh and I’ve been told since I don’t work and I just stay home that I have less to do than my husband.
