Week 2, Day 6: Do some more dishes

I'm scaling back the dishes reminders to once a week instead of twice. Ideally, we'll get to the point where we're doing dishes regularly as a habit, but for right now I think doing one or two loads on a designated dishes day (I am obsessed with alliteration lately!) should be enough to stem the tide and keep them under control.
If you can see your way toward doing a quick touch up of other things, so much the better.

Achievement: Have you tamed your tupperware?

Day 3: Do Another Load of Dishes.

Avast mateys, and all that. It’s Wednesday, so you should do another load of dishes. In fact, henceforth, Wednesday shall be dishes day, most likely. Unless I forget.
Having a dishes day will be useful once we're on top of the dishes; you should do your dishes diligently (gweh heh.) anyway, but a reminder to catch up would be good.
So! What makes Wednesday dishes different from Monday dishes is this: a treasure hunt!
And by “hunt” I mean “gather,” and by “treasure” I mean “all the nasty leftover dishes that are strewn about the boat.”
Let's get to it! Put on your best pirate bandana. Yes, it does make things better, because you feel like a badass. You could put on an eye patch, but that is not recommended. Especially if you have more than one deck on your boat - if you fall down the stairs, everyone will laugh, and you won’t be able to sue because this is a disclaimer.

It's official. So don't do it.

Anyway. Go round up all those dishes you set down in your room or forgot in the bathroom (we don’t judge around here. Ok, yes we do, but we try not to let you know about it) or on top of the washing machine, or use to feed your domestic mammal. Put those in the dishwasher!
Achievement: If your dishwasher is full, run it. If not… put the mammal bowl back, he/she/it will probably need that. And then pat yourself on the back, you’re already on top of your dishes! You probably don’t even need to be reading this blog because you’re already clean. Or else you just don’t own many dishes, that’s fine too.

Achievement: Hunt and gather every last dish. Even the tupperware-style containers. Yes, the ones that have grown fuzz as you desperately try to forget about them. Those might take some hunting. Bring a net, in case they shoot glowing balls of energy at you.

Happy Hunting!
