How do you deal with this? It never fucking ends. I'm really tired and overwhelmed, and it's not like I have high standards. But we need to eat well and our flat to not be a total mess and that requires a certain amount of drudgery.
I'm chronically ill and it feels like it takes up a huge percentage of my daily energy just to do my bare minimum. I quite enjoy cooking a nice meal when feeling well, but at the moment I'm so overwhelmed because I just feel I can't keep this up.
I think more batch cooking would help but practically in tears at the thoughts of how much more chopping and cleaning up then that would take to do. Not to mention the planning and shopping required.
At the minute we do try to double up quantities to feed us for two nights or a lunch where possible and my lovely DP does the lion's share of all the household chores, so I don't want to do less than I'm doing, but finding it so difficult and draining and overwhelming when this fatigued.
What helps you manage all this shit?
