What would you do/recommend?

I also find it funny that for someone who is apprently so poor, she manages to buying alcohol twice a week.

And you know what she said to us when we told her she needs to cut back her power consumption, as since she has lived here the power has gone up $100 more then when would use in the colder months. She said, well how much power do your computers use? I told her that computers actually don't use a lot of power, because they don't. The washing machine uses way more power on just 1 load then the computer. I mean s**t the cheek of her turning it around on us!!! I told her, we use the washing machine once a week, and she uses it at least twice a day, at least 4+times a week, plus she keeps re-boiling the jug, we just boil it when we need it, never re-boil it, we also only have lights on that are absolutely necessary, she has her lights on all day and during the day, also we limit the dishwasher use and wait til it is full, she just turns it on when its not even half full. And after telling her all this, that is when she turned around and asked how much our computers use. I was like WTF?!

Tell her straight.....get out. She knew it was no smoking inside she has been warned, so tell her it is not working out & while she is away you will pack all her stuff & leave it by the door but she is more than welcome to do it herself before she goes to AK.

Yeah we were thinking, we will tell her when she is in Auckland and has paid her rent up to date, that she has to look for some where else to live. We figured if we told her before she goes away she would just not pay rent while she's away. This way we get our rent and she knows she has to move.

if she broke the rule already whats to say she wont agree to that but then when it comes time she just doesnt anyway... if you ask me you may as well kick her out and start getting babies room ready now...    sounds like it will need a new paint job anyway!

There is no point, if you warned her before and she still did it she will do it again.

Yeah I think you are right about the fact that if I let her stay I will begin to hate her to the point I'll feel like riping off her face(not literally).

As I keep wanting to confront her about it, but I think she will just lie and continue doing it. I did send her a text saying "by the way I know you have smoked in your room several times since I asked you about it last time, so just don't". Got no reply, but heard her coughing like 10 mins later. And I know for a fact she doesn't have a cold or asthma.

And she always seems to have her window open. Like does she not know that doesn't do a thing towards getting rid of smoke. The fact is smoke rises, upstairs, which is where I usually am when I smell the smoke.

And my partner pointed, for one thing it's not just disrespectful, but it is a fire hazard, and whose to say she won't just get a little to drunk and drop her lit cigeratte and start a fire. And as we only have 1 smoke alarm and it's upstairs and our rooms are all downstairs, by the time the upstairs smoke alarm goes off, we could all be dead or on the way by then.

The fact is, she may be easy to get along with, but she clearly only thinks about herself and her needs. As she knows that room will be the babies room and after the last time she was caught out and confronted and promised to never do it again, knowing if we find out she is smoking in her room again, she will be kicked out, it is so much worse that she has continued to do that. I mean s**t maybe she is just being a b***h because I'm pregnant and she'd love to be, so she is acting out of jealousy and envy.

It just sucks that my daughter seems to be attached to her, as children who are young don't judge and wouldn't have any idea that she's not a good person for doing what she does. It kind of pisses me off when my daughter cuddles up to her. Because I'm all like, she doesn't deserve those cuddles.

Glad to hear she is finally gone. Bad luck on the mess she made though! Hope you got a bond off her.

At least she's gone, but what a bitch!
