Honestly, I thought that we had done them all and as I read the comment about being an ungracious guest I realized that I can't remember what the heck happened to make me forget that they weren't done. :doh: I was emotionally cooked, and it created a fog in my brain I swear. I <strike>always</strike> normally help while visiting others homes, but this trip was so different for me, in so many ways. I apologize. I'm sorry you came home to dishes. I know I hate it just as much and it peeves me just the same. I wish that hadn't happened, I wish that I'd been a better guest. I feel like according to Angie I must be not only a horrible guest but someone you might not invite back. I'll be on my best behavior if you are to have me back, promise. I'm really sorry I wasn't more conciderate. Ok, I’m the evil sister that let those dishes rest.

Yeah, right. Truth is, they inherited his utter lack of domestic skill, but that's a complaint for another day. <em>Jennifer's last blog post..<a href='http://chapternext.typepad.com/open_book/2008/01/desperate-times.html' rel="nofollow">Desperate Times Call for Drastic Measures</a></em> When I used to complain to my husband about his complete inability to help with the dishes – up to and including loading his own damn plate in there instead of sitting it on the counter by the sink – he’d toss his head in the general direction of our kids and say, “That’s what I made them for.”

Your daughter is really becoming quite a grown woman. She is learning how man and women really are and she is learning how relationship truly are too. What a cute story.

We were taught, too, at a young age to clean up when in other people's houses. Glad to know your dishes will be taken care of if you go missing. I can just see her sighing and "stepping up to the plate" duitfully. LOL. <em>raehan's last blog post..<a href='http://agogandaghast.com/2008/01/20/love-from-the-anti-blogger/' rel="nofollow">Love from the anti-blogger</a></em> I love Angie.
