[quote=Anonymous]My MIL did. Her kids are each 5-6 years apart so while my SIL was in high school, she only had 1 kid at home. Then none. It was 10 more years before my FIL retired. She has a lot of hobbies - She interviews kids for her college, volunteers at church, plans their vacations, talk on the phone to each of her kids 2-3x a week, works on little projects around the house. She has a way of making the smallest thing a giant production - perhaps because she needs to fill time. I would buy curtains if I needed them. She will research pleat patterns, find the perfect fabrics and order them, have curtains made and some tiny thing will be wrong and she’ll need like 2-3 rounds of fixes. You can see how something like that takes her a bit of time each day for a few weeks. She always has 4-5 of these “projects” she makes up for herself in various statuses. [/quote]
