For what it's worth, I find that Molly typifies the reaction any 
normal wizarding mom would react to the news that the most feared 
wizard ever is BACK. She's irrational, totally bound up in fear, not 
sure what's going to happen next and she's isolated herself, to boot. 
Not that you all haven't mentioned this, but she and Sirius are in 
similar boats it seems. She cleans and worries to make herself feel 
useful but unfortunately, Sirius doesn't even have that much of a way 
to feel useful.
