So I’m taking a little break here.
First of all, I’m prefacing by saying that I KNOW I am home all day and Rob’s working so I KNOW that I should be doing all the housekeeping stuff around here etc. etc. etc. BUT I don’t. Lazy? Possibly. Alot of the time I just feel too… blah… to do much of anything. I mean generally I love cooking but last night was the first time in WEEKS that I even managed to peel a potato (anything beyond sandwiches is too much for me). Depression maybe. Whatever.
When he moved in it was agreed that he would wash the dishes and I would do the glasses, because I hate washing dishes and he hates washing glasses. Great. The only thing is that Rob’s been so busy that he hasn’t had time to do the dishes either. And so for the past week, they’ve been piling up. I don’t enjoy having dishes piled in the sink, so they’re on the counter. But the other day, Rob started the dishes. He filled the sink with water and put all the plates in, and did some of them, but something happened. And the dishes ended up living in there for two days.
I just decided to tackle the Gross Kitchen. Oh my God, people.
Oh my God. Just be happy that there are no batteries in the camera or you’d be retching right now. I emptied the dishes out of the sink. No problem… except at the bottom. The dishes at the bottom of the sink were (are) covered in this disgusting, smelly orange/grayish slime. PLUS, somehow the dish brush had gotten left in the sink, so IT’s all slimy too.
Thank God for dishgloves.
Hopefully from now on we won’t leave the gross dishes in the sink anymore, and I won’t lay in bed instead of cleaning up.
Woo! Okay! Back to the kitchen! And I’ll tell you later what it was that I was stressed about yesterday. If I live through the dishes. Wish me luck.
Ugh. I feel your pain. I hate doing dishes.
What’s worse than dishes piled up in the sink to be washed? Dished piled up in the sink TWO FEET FROM THE DISHWASHER. It’s true that only females know how to rinse them and put them into the dishwasher in an fashion most conducive to ultimate cleanliness.
