So I’m doing dishes and I thought about how Honey mentioned that I put all kinds of giant sharp knives in my dish water but I absolutely refuse to put the cheese grater in there. Well, yeah! The cheese grater and I have already had it out once, on accident, and I really don’t wish to have my hand go through that discomfort and loss of skin again any time soon. So when the cheese grater needs washed I either put it off until I have to do it before it annoys me or I hold it by the handle and scrub it with lots of soap and the scrub brush; then rinse it with steaming hot water. It then sits and dries (don’t want it to tear apart my dish towels) before getting put away. There it sits in the cupboard awaiting it’s next chance at me.
I can handle sharp knives in the dish water, it’s no big deal. I always put them the same way, the handles are always towards me and the pointed ends away. I know where they are in the bottom of the sink soaking while I do plates and bowls. Even my daughter is ok with knives in the water.
Today I’m washing random laundry. Random why? Because this is stuff that has been put off while we didn’t have a dryer. I put a blanket, a flat sheet and a fitted sheet (none that go together) into the washer today and I have to go throw them into the dryer.
Speaking of laundry, why is my Downy ball so hit and miss? I’ve tried throwing it in on top, I’ve tried it facing one way instead of the other, I’ve tried loosening the stopper slightly, but if it lets go it’s of its own volition and I can’t figure out rhyme or reason to it.
What else is going on? I have two dish towels. One is dirty and needs washed and the other… Dusty is so happily lounging on. I had used it for overflow of dishes (I wanted to get them washed and walk away that day) and when I put them all away he laid down on it and has a lovely smug look on his face. The point is that I used to have like 10 dish towels and I have no idea where they are. Once in awhile they surface, one or two at a time, and I hide them in the silverware drawer (who’d look for them there?) to keep the family from stealing them to clean up spills.
Other than that nothing much is really going on. I’ve got the stereo on and I’m listening to the local station. Want to tune in? You can! KXFX - The Fox - Plays rock from (I think) the 70s to today’s hits. Sometimes they get a little repetitive, but what radio station doesn’t? Enjoy!
And WTF is up with MT? For whatever reason (I’ve got to find the answer, it’s really pissing me off) my MT keeps logging me out whenever I do certain things (save or publish entries, upload photos or assets/ save pages/ sometimes when changing up templates) even if I click the “remember me” box. Ugh, anyone else have this issue? Let me know, please! Later.
