I'm sorry you're feeling so burned out right now. I wish I could help.
As far as what to use a night out for, you've talked in the past about wanting to be in a book club so what about something like that once a month? The book club I was in in Edmonton was started as a way for two of my friends-with-kids to get out of the house and do something for themselves. (Now that it's just the two moms left in Edmonton, they still get together once a month for dinner and skip the whole book thing.) Maybe you have other friends-with-kids who would like the chance to have a night off or maybe a book club is already set up at your library or a nearby bookstore. It would probably require you to leave the house before Alex is fed and settled for the night, though. Is that a problem?
