Kudos to your wife. I am a wife and totally responsible for our pool. GIRL POWER!!!!!
That would be my advice with your schedule. I can easily go 2 weeks without needing to add anything.
Yea I've been wanting to upgrade to salt but haven't really wanted to spend the money because we don't normally have problems with the pool and I've been owning it 5 years now. The pool 100% resin so I don't think it would be a problem.
Just got home tested my water and these are the results:
Ph- 7.4
Fc- 26
Cc- 0
Cya- 70
Ta- 100
It seems my wife did an excellent job but
I have some leaves to get out so my plan is to get the leaves out, vacuum and brush the pool tomorrow and I'll bring my pool back to shock level over night tomorrow then I'll do an OCLT the following night.

Looks like the Pool Boy is scrambling for his job

I really think you have two options (well 3)
1) Switch to salt
2) Switch to a automatic liquid CL dosing system.
3) Somehow get your wife to dump in a 1/2 gallon of bleach each day.
1 is going to be the easiest, but 3 should not be that much of an effort. Don't even both to test, just have her dump it in every day. We have a person watch our house when we go on vacation (well, she watches the dog really, but lives in the house). I have her dump a "green bottle" (Ita quart nagene jar) of 10% CL in the pool every day. My pool only seems to need a quart a day, not a half gallon, be we always come back to clear water.
