The Thing About Dishwashers

Dishwashers are a wonderful invention. I certainly can't imagine not having one with a family of five! I know that the year and a half that Kevin and I did not have one before we were married resulted in some ridiculous dish issues (ask us about the bathtub in Mt. Airy some time if you really want a laugh). And that was just two of us! But the thing about dishwashers is, they only work if you actually put the dishes inside them. Which requires emptying the clean ones when it's done with its magic. And sometimes, especially on weekends, those tasks just don't get done. Well, they get done, but sometimes the dishes pile up throughout the entire day in the sink and on the counter until the machine is finally emptied after dinner time, and then it gets completely filled up again.  Today was one of those days. But VT beat Miami, so who really cares?
