[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just repeat "she is my kids' grandma and DH's mom, she did raise the man I love." and "let it go, let it go, let it go"... and don't feel guilty to go upstairs and ditch the kids and house chores on them.[/quote]

This.  Plus take a lot of walks.  [/quote]

And drives. Long drives and errands, with or w/o your kids. Go grocery shopping. Take donations to Goodwill. Take old paints to the solid waste disposal center. Drive to that new housing development and look around. Do yoga in your bedroom with the door locked (or just say you are doing yoga, go to your room and lock the door/there’s an hour).

Outside work: there’s yard clean-up, washing a car, cleaning the garage, watering lawn and plants, pulling weeds, cleaning outside windows.

Don’t forget: after all this work, you’ll need a long shower.

Also, I’m sure you’ll have some Zoom calls, right? Or you’re going to need at least an hour to prepare a report because you’re on deadline.
There’s another hour behind a locked door.

Last thought: Family Movie Night! Everyone together but you don’t have to talk and MOL can’t hijack the conversation.

OP here. Great suggestions, thank you! Any excuse to get out of the house right?[/quote]
