Dinner Time at the Nightengale

The typical routine is that at 5:00 I get home and feed the dogs. Monkey ignores his food and begs for his 'rub down' and Goose devours his food so fast I almost can't remember if I even fed him. I cook something for Nick and I then it's a free for all for the rest of the evening. Dog walks, homework, work related work, errands to run and whatnot are all options depending on what we need and want to do. Lately I've wanted to do nothing, so when I started to come home feeling so exhausted that I was not even feeding the dogs I wanted Nick to pick up the slack. He could cook for us and I'd feed the dogs. He could do the dishes and I would put them away- that sort of thing. Is this too much to ask?
