between times

During the gaps

Between times means in the intervals, during the gaps between other activities or events.

It suggests spare moments scattered among busier periods: She works full-time but paints between times.

The phrase emphasizes what happens in the spaces rather than during the main events.

Also written as one word: betweentimes.
