When Mrs.Rathji's sister(s) piss me off, and it is often, I let her know about it. Sometimes I don't communicate it well, and it causes issues, but more often than not it doesn't cause any problems because she is a rational woman and she realizes her sisters are bats#1+ crazy from time to time.

That said, I realize that she puts a ton of effort into her relationship with her sisters, and I try to support her in it as much as possible, without letting my frustrations show too much (ie spent all day with sister X - for a really good reason usually - so didn't get Y or Z done).

Her father on the other hand, sometimes I want to string from a bridge, but that's an entirely new thread right there.
