Dishes.

I always put off doing dishes. It's not that I terribly despise doing them, and I definitely enjoy the result of having a clean kitchen, but there are just so many other things I'd rather be doing. My mom has always taught me that it makes things much easier if you wash dishes as you go, as in washing as you make them, so when you're done cooking you don't have a mountain of dishes left behind. Also, she recommends finishing any meal dishes immediately following said meal. I've never mastered either of these things. Sometimes I think it would make life much easier if I looked forward to them, if I enjoyed the actual washing of dishes act. Who knows...

I never finish the dishes right after a meal, but they usually get done every day. Unfortunately, they're one of the only things that gets done! If you lived nearby, I'd totally trade doing your dishes for having help picking up after the garbage tornado I call a husband. :)

Amanda, just wait till your little man is older! Then you'll really have a whirlwind!
