I have three sons, two of which are playing football five days a week. How old is your son? I commute pretty far and by the time we get home its 7:15 - 8:30pm. I try to cook things that are quick or start preparation the day before if I have the energy. Between the time they get out of school and the start of practice, they need to start homework. If not done, they do it at home while I am cooking or if its small amount during drive to drop off.

While I try to keep a handle on the mess around the house during the week, our schedules just don't allow for detailed cleaning. I use paper plates to keep things to a minimum and make sure they pick up clothes or items they drop in floor. The weekend is when things get cleaned and it stays straight pretty much until about Wed/Thurs. They shower before bed or in the morning (up at 5-5:30am).

I don't like buying out all the time, but sometimes your just too tired.
