I so need to vent this morning

Marbles in the medicine cabinet

Glitter bombs or the silly pop up snakes in drawers.

Or if you want to really get nasty, write down about how inappropriate it is to go through someones drawers, rude immature etc etc, speculate on her motivation for doing so (regardless of how ridiculous the reason is) and put it somewhere you know she will snoop

Yes! OMG yes to the glitter bomb and nasty note!

Thanks ladies for all of the advice. It is a good idea to have my H talk to her as soon as he sees her. She gets a warning. Pranks could be a lot of fun. Keep the ideas coming. I thought of the laxative too. She would be on the bowl the whole time. I am going to put my positive pregnancy test from 13 years ago in a drawer. Is it a good one to put the little baggies with the white powder in the 13 year olds room? H forwarded a text to me this afternoon that said she may need to extend her stay until Feb. 14th! Hell no.

She can get a fucking hotel or stay in a god damn box. She is not your responsibility and your house SHO THE FUCK ain't her vacation home.

Lol she wants to stay until Valentine's Day.  NOPE.  So much nope. 

I would print out a bunch of documents in a language she doesn't read (like a technical manual I'm sure you can find online in a foreign language), crop the pictures out and make it look like financial records for a tax shelter account that's been cleared out.  (Don't want her thinking she can freeload off you because you're loaded.)  Stuff these documents in manila folders labeled "Financial Accounts" or something inviting.  Pack a couple suitcases full of random items that have no purpose together (baggies of oregano and powdered sugar with stuff like snorkels) and label them "Go Bag" and put in closets, next to doors, etc.

You could also put sharp, pointy objects among your things randomly.  "Oh, you cut your finger on a random sewing needle?  I didn't warn you about that because I didn't think you had any need to be in that cabinet."

Edited for random misspell.

Maybe hide the financial documents, print out a bunch of papers with "None of your fucking business," and put those in the financial document holder.  Likewise, you could tape labels with the same thing around medications.  Maybe she'd get the hint.  Probably not, but maybe.

Does she do this with everyone she visits?  I've never heard of someone actually doing this.

It's insanely rude for her to invite herself to your house for an extended period. I mean the other stuff is rude too, but damn, she could have at least asked. I would tell her that she can't stay because your spare bedoom is occupied, preferably by something hideous or not important.

Husband problem.

Yeah this is a whole bunch of Fuck No. I won't even let H's FATHER stay in our house because when he does he hogs the TV, watching nothing but Fox news, makes racist, bigoted, sexist comments, and makes a mess, expecting me to clean up after him. I'd be a prisoner in my own home, staying in my bedroom because otherwise he wanted to debate or insult me. He even walked around naked one morning knowing I was home. No more. 

I don't tolerate disrespectful people in my house, and H can either have his rude ass dad or me under the same roof, not both. I tolerated a lot of nonsense from H's dad over the years because he's his dad, and I know full well what it's like to be in thrall to a dysfunctional parent, but I won't have him in my home, and you shouldn't be forced to host his sister just because she's his sister. He wants to see her, cool, you can go out for dinner while she's in town (staying at a hotel) or whatever. If she expects to be entertained, HE can plan all that. But you should not be subjected to an NSA level invasion on privacy just because she won't take no for an answer. Your home your personal space, and your H should not get to allow his sister to invade it. Personally, he would have a choice. His sister could stay in the house, or I would. But not both.

Yeah... I second the "sister or me" thing. Honestly, I couldn't put up with that shit. I can't deal with people I like in my space too long. Someone I don't like in my space for a week? 

Nope. Talk to your H and get him to deal with it, but there's no way I'm okay with it.

I feel like it's hypocritical of me to be glad FI is an only child... but I don't think I could deal with any more damn siblings.

Who are these people that never learned you don't fucking touch things that aren't yours?

I don't know about you guys, but my parents taught me that when I was like 3.
