17 ‘Azamat 164 B.E. – Saturday, June 2, 2007 Washing dishes has never been one of my favorite chores, all though I was beginning to rethink this. Lately laundry has become the big issue. I was beginning to think that I’d much rather do dishes than laundry. Laundry has become a never-ending nightmare, until now. The garbage disposal doesn’t work. I turned in a work order and plumber replaced the garbage disposal. The problem is it still doesn’t work. Last week I had to bail out the dishwasher, the reason is the garbage disposal didn’t work. Since the garbage disposal still doesn’t work and I have no desire to bail out the dishwasher again, I’m doing dishes the old fashion way. The only problem here is that I don’t have a dish pan. So I’m using a large, actually an extra-large Tupperware container. The idea behind this is so I can empty the dishwater down the toilet stool instead of the sink ![]() I can’t wait for Monday to do the dishes. ![]() Then there is the problem of dishtowels ![]() At sixty years of age, I have decided that there are certain technological items I can’t live without (except in an emergency) that is a garbage disposal, dishwasher, cloths washer, cloths dryer, a computer and an indoor working toilet (I’ll explain this in a later entry or maybe I all ready mentioned it in my other blog, in which case I’ll go into details in a later entry). I suppose I should go and check the dishes drying in the sink. I’ve still got a lot to do, although now I can at least have a bowl of ice cream and a cup of coffee. I’ve got to wash one of the microwave casseroles because tomorrow I’m going to fix a canned pork and macaroni casserole. Don’t let anyone ever tell you that there is anything you can’t cook in a microwave. Because it isn’t true, you can cook anything including a Thanksgiving Turkey. True if it is a large turkey you have to cut it into parts before cooking it, but you can cook it (browning it is a completely different subject and by the way unnecessary). |
