Am I Overreacting?

So, my in-law decided to come down for my wife's graduation. About four or five years or so ago we went to her house in Colorado and she was the kinda person that really ya know kinda takes advantage of it being their living space and use that advantage to become a monster... we'll yeah, that's her. Completely tried to tell me how to raise our children. Mind you, first and foremost I'm black, while my wife's children are from the previous relationship. He's a 6'8" white male 😒 I guess my 5'9" stature and delicious looking chocolate skin isn't enough for her baby. Anywho, I digress.

So fast forward now she's here because my wife just graduated nursing school. Yay. Happy for my wife, happy her mom came to support. What Im not happy about (and please feel free to tell me Im being a petty dick) is the way my wife's mom tries to utterly delete me almost (mind you completely innocently and on the sly but she knows I feel that shit) by if some activity is happening, what does everyone want to do, ok let's do this. In this never ONCE looks my way or asks my opinion. She comes here and pointedly sits in my chair. Yall know what I mean about "your chair" in your home. This is my house! Now I get to thinking with about 20% of my being that's like yeah, she's my elderly in-law, I should be happy to g8ve her my seat. I agree with this generally. But when it was made known to her where she was sitting, she didnt acknowledge it, she didnt attempt to get up, there's literally an IDENTICAL recliner next to mine 🤦🏾 she could just use that one. She pointedly doesn't gaf! Period. Like bruh, it seems petty on the surface but I feel like she knows wtf she's doing and just doing it. Im about to snap on this b........

Look, before I tell her about herself

I just wanna know...
