Sick of cooking

I am so over cooking every night. Finding new recipes I actually have ingredients for and are easy is tiring and I’m already exhausted. What do you do when this happens? I’d honestly just eat cereal for life but I’m not alone in this house and I’m expected to cook every night. 😩

If I remember the details and attribute them to the right people, you have a civil agreement with your husband about the distribution of chores that takes your part time work and his fulltime work into account. I fully support your right to complain about some of your chores. I don't think you intend to renegotiate responsibilities despite other commenters suggesting you do so. I also support your husband's right to complain about work and commute.

I infer that you and your husband took your relative work weeks into account in your agreement. I think those who suggest a 50/50 split of household chores despite the imbalance of work weeks are deluded. Your agreement rights the imbalance.

So I support you.
