Do you get time off, and what do you do in that time?

Answer

Sisters have approximately the same amount of leisure time as most adults. In this time, they are free to do whatever is legal, moral and reasonable for adults in their situation. Obviously, each sister is a unique individual and her choices of recreational activities will reflect her personal interests. Some of the more common choices are sports, movies, reading, sharing with friends, TV and enjoying the outdoors.
