Thank you all. I agree, not said in malice, but once said, does not need repeated.
Oh, this is several times? Then I'd say, "that's what you always say." Maybe when she starts to say "I work" You can sing-song it with her and laugh like it's a joke.

And she could be feeling bad that she doesn't think she has the time to do the things you so... I know, no excuse...
Good luck
