Daily Task

I'm going to start off really slowly. I'm following in A Slob Comes Clean's footsteps and making a list of things that I must do every day, and then every week I'll add a new task. Since Russ said he wished the dishes were done more often (when I asked him what part of the house he wished were cleaner) my task this week is:

Put the dishes in the dishwasher every night.

And with that, I have to take the dishes out of the dishwasher when they're done.

Sounds simple, but I'm already rethinking this. I HATE doing the dishes. But I've been thinking about this. Normally I would wait till this sink is piled high and I absolutely have to do the dishes before I would do them. By then they've gotten...well...disgusting and it's a big job. But if i do them every night after dinner, before they're disgusting, it shouldn't be such a big gross job and should go a long way to making my kitchen look better. My mom says that the dishes are her favorite chore because of such a big impact it makes on the kitchen when the sink is clear of dirty dishes. Makes sense. So this week, after dinner I'll do all the dishes and put them in the dishwasher right away. Sounds like a plan. That means I gotta go do the dishes now, though. :(
