well if it's not much.. then just let it be. Just like your spouse - be kind and polite, but don't initiate contact.
I suppose If you want to address it with SIL, you can. If you want to just tell her that you are really busy at this time and will give her a ring once things slow down - you can do that too.
I know it's really hard but there is no right or wrong answer here.. only the one you have live with.

Show empathy when there's pain. Show grace when warranted. Kindness in the midst of anger. Faith in the face of fear.
