[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't wash dishes? Also. Unless you have lost your sense of touch, then you feel bad, not badly. Would you feel goodly if she washed the dishes?[/quote] Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed...[/quote] +1000. OP here. Did you miss the part where I said I'm pregnant or do you just like to harass pregnant women? I'm leaving work now and I'm so tired and sore I can barely walk to my car, so no, I can't stand at the sink doing dishes. In a couple of hours I'm going to have to get the children up from their naps which may physically kill me if I have to do anything extra before then. [/quote] Not saying who is right or wrong in this. But OP are you leaving a pile of dirty dishes from the prior night/day. Leaving the kids dirty diapers out instead of putting them in the diaper pail? Or just other "messes" I ask because you are saying just doing the dishes is painful or walking etc. (which yes sucks sorry :( ) She may feel that you are leaving the mess and why should she clean up your mess?? I am not sure, but I know when I get to work on Mondays and the sink is full of dishes from the weekend, the dishwasher is full of the same dishes I started right before I left for the weekend (and yes I unloaded and loaded it Mondays I unload and load at least 3 times), there are diapers on the changer, clothes everywhere. I just sigh and yes get annoyed - I do clean up because I need it to be a bit orderly to keep me sane for the day, plus it helps out my bosses. I also know that some days I don't get the play area fully cleaned. If the parent come home and we are in the middle of a fun game or activity things don't get put away just when their parents walk in the door. Yesterday it was a mess! I even knew it but the kids were having a blast putting sticky color post its to the walls and doors. We matched colors, stuck them to our shirts, the dog, big beach balls. But they loved it. It was all clean when I walked in this morning. I did take extra care today to make sure that I said thanks to MB when I saw her and I did extra "cleaning" by organizing some of the kitchen cupboards the kids use as play kitchens and with play food.[/quote]
