[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You could send out laundry. I streamlined meal planning: I buy basically the same cart every week, and we have the same 6 dinners (takeout pizza on Fridays). It’s not glamorous but it’s freed up a lot of brain space and we will eat fancier later. (Monday is chicken and rice; Taco Tuesday; Wednesdays salads with leftover chicken; Thursday pasta; etc. I change little things like the marinade for the chicken and the sauce/shape of the pasta, but it’s basically the same.)[/quote] Agree with this. I have the same simple meals in rotation and get the groceries delivered. I like to cook, so I miss the variety of new recipes sometimes, but this approach saves me lots of time and mental energy at this stage of my life. I’ll get back to more complicated stuff in a few years. This plus having a regular house cleaner has cut my household “stuff” down to very little. [/quote]
