[quote=Anonymous]My MIL is similar (kind of). Things that have helped us: - She likes to be seen as helpful-so we give her tasks to do (hey can you walk the dog for me- it would be a huge help!) - Schedule appointments (another poster suggested this), run errands, get a mani/pedi - Grocery shopping, lunch with friends - early bedtime (My MIL thinks I go to bed at 8) I honestly put my son to bed, say good night, go in my room and watch TV or read a book. It is glorious. We used to all watch movies together until I realized I could carve out some 'me' time. Now, my husband spends the evening watching moves with his parents :lol: -alcohol....lots of alcohol :lol: [/quote]
