I think that choosing a Wednesday for my start day was poorly thought out. No one wants to do the dishes on a Wednesday night!
I had very few goals for yesterday other than to get the washing done so that P would have her uniform for today, and wash the dishes before bed. Not hard really. Think I could do it? Absolutely no way! The uniforms were washed but only because at 11.30 pm I remembered that every single item of her clothing for school was in the washing machine waiting to be switched on and I felt guilty that she might have to go to school once again (it happens a bit) in dirty clothes! After starting my blog and completing my mystery shopping assignment for the evening the dishes just got left.
Why must the dishes be done?
The Organised Housewife hates having to wake up to dirty dishes and I have to say that I agree with her. They just put a bad taste in my mouth knowing that as well as the myriad other things I have to do today, I now have to do things from yesterday too!
Why didn't they get done then?
Well, other than the reasons mentioned above, otherwise known as I couldn't be bothered, I had run out of dishwasher powder so the dishes needed to be hand washed. I know there are plenty of Mums out there that manage without a dishwasher every day but when you have been used to having one for the last six years you just don't know how to function properly without one! Now, I know that I could have just popped down to the shops to get some more but that too is firmly placed in to "too hard basket"! It isn't shopping day so I flat out refuse to go just because I didn't better calculate how much dishwasher powder I'd require.
So, have they been done?
No.
