SIL Driving Me Crazy

Ok heres the deal, my SIL is driving me out of my mind. Everything has to be about her. She had to get a second job because she said her and my BIL are not making it on the income they have coming in now. I know it happens, the problem is my DH and I are barely
making it through the Holidays as it is. She has 2 grown kids living at home and both are working, but are not helping by the groceries or pay bills. But they are eating all the food she is buying. So now she has decided that I can make the whole Thanksgiving Dinner by myself. She forgets I am working all week long.(I am a manager of a restaurant and work up to 16 hours a day and take care of two kids under the age of 6). When I made a comment to my DH he said I could do it and she probably will end up helping. I know she won't, I made the whole Thanksgiving Dinner Two years ago all by myself, 1 month after I had my daughter. She promised to help but then decided to show up late and complain that
I didn't have dinner made yet. The whole problem is I am supposed to try to stay off my feet as much as possible and really am not up to making the whole dinner. What should I do???????????????

Ok it took me a while to tell everyone about my Thanksgiving, I ended up being sick on Thanksgiving. But my husband made the majority of dinner with my supervision. Everything was seeming to be Ok and then his STUPID brother had to bring up both of my husbands ex-wives. His first wife passed away just 3 months after their wedding. (Car wreck). His ex-wife is still in our life because of their daughter. He kept telling me that his brother only married me because I was pregnant. But all that is over with thank you.
