Gracie, I'm beginning to think Someone or Something is p***ed @ you......

I learned one thing here in the last few months.  My DH broke his heel and
was restricted to bed or the recliner for three months.  Its officially
healed but he still isn't getting around well.  So I've had all the dishes
for him and me and for three boys.  Would have laundry as well buy just
about the first thing out of my mouth when he got home on crutches was to
tell the boys I was NOT doing their laundry.  (Grandpa had been and then
complained when they wouldn't put away their clean clothes)

What I learned.  If you really load the dishwasher right, namely every glass
and spoon in the house and as much of the rest as possible, and run it, as
long as you don't put them away you won't have many dirty dishes for quite
some time.  Even helps to wash any new dirty dishes by hand rather than put
the others away.  Teenage boys really can't find the dishes in the
dishwasher.  And learn to drink from the bottle or can or the sink faucet.
