For me, the best thing I could do in a similar situation was to draw some gentle boundaries. It's hard as hell when there is a grandchild involved, but if I kept doing everything they would never have learned to do some of the stuff themselves.

It might be as simple as starting a class or volunteering somewhere; an obligation that you need to keep and they have to work around.
