Be it in the library or in shops, I often hear old folks talking to themselves. Is it a habit they've likely always had or is it something to do with aging?

I'm like you, but my wife is like your MIL. It's caused some issues for sure.

One big one is her thinking I'm being dismissive when she points out potential issues in a plan I tell her. I'm not dismissing them, I've just already recognized and addressed those issues in my internal dialog.
