[quote=Anonymous]This is just how a lot of older people are. It’s irritating, I know. I think you just have to deal with it unfortunately. Try to work in regular “breaks” when she’s there. You forgot something at the store or need an unexpected ingredient for a dish you’re making. You’re going out for a run/walk. You’re dropping off leftovers for a friend who’s stuck at home with Covid. You’re going to grab coffee - would anyone else like anything while I’m out? Or if she gets around reasonably well, how about some more activities so you aren’t sitting around the house getting annoyed with each other? Could you all go to the playground with the kids or to a museum? Where is your husband in all this, can he run some interference while you get some time alone?[/quote]
