Someone is always cooking, or eating, or cleaning up, or packing a lunchbox, or something. The only firm rules are:<br />1. Whoever cooks, does not wash dishes.<br />2. Someone with young non-arthritic knees gets food out of the freezer in the basement.<br />3. Tall people (everyone but me and the dog) gets the things out of the top of the cabinet.<br /><br />Everybody does everything If you see something needing to be done, do it. When the kitchen becomes crowded, someone will move to the laundry room and fold clothes, or take out the trash. I suppose you could call it organized chaos. Everyone jumps in and starts working.<br /><br />It also seems to be the time we all connect and share our news. <br /><br />Jeannie @ GetMeToTheCountry.blogspot.comJeanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11333123227073032453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965390616423292590.post-83338049713352080972018-02-24T07:29:51.980-07:002018-02-24T07:29:51.980-07:00Thank you Lee Ann.

Usuall...I try to never go to bed with dirty dishes. Usually they are air drying and get put up while my first cup of coffee is being made the next morning. I have a dishwasher but always forget it's there. With just two people in the house I only use it about once a month just to keep it working. Seems like it takes days to fill it up since I don't do my knives or pots and pans in the dishwasher and we run around saying where is the______ (fill in the blank) until one of us realizes it's waiting in the dishwasher to be washed. I like the peace of knowing all the dishes are clean before I go to bed and ready for anything. I'm a worrier - what if we lose power or the pipes freeze and we haven't run the dishwasher or done the dishes. Then we start with a mess. I'm the same way with laundry. Take care.Crystal Hankeynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965390616423292590.post-61194822600274711932018-02-22T16:25:46.991-07:002018-02-22T16:25:46.991-07:00You and hubby have a great system.

That and the fact that I love to put my arthritic hands in the hot water. I have to admit I drop stuff sometimes. Irritates me so much.

My hubby is in charge of cleaning the kitchen and doing the dishes since it literally hurts me to load the dishwasher, empty it and hand wash the pots and pan. I still do most of the cooking an baking, but that is about all I can manage.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449564619872452771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965390616423292590.post-3302966376827453892018-02-22T06:30:11.212-07:002018-02-22T06:30:11.212-07:00Great post today, thank you.

I had a small injury to my wrist last week and had difficulty keeping all the counters and table wiped off, drove me insane until I caught up :).
