Please come wash my dishes.
I cannot express to you how much I dislike washing dishes.

I will keep you company if you like or just leave you be to finish the task. Just please come over and wash them for me.

I have gloves and new sponges and foaming dish soap. There is a nice window to look out while you wash.

I will play your favorite music or read to you threads from DU.

I will even make you something really good to eat when you are done.

It would take you less than an hour.

I am in Santa Barbara.

Anyone? Anyone?

1. I can't help you, 'cause I hate 'em as much as you do.
:P :hug: I feel your pain.... I usually load up the dishwasher, unload it when it's finished, then fill it up again...and repeat until the dishes are done. I can't stand 'em. :(

8. Even if I had a dishwasher
I would still dislike doing the dishes.

3. This is the funniest thread I've seen in awhile
and no one would come over to wash the dishes? Hey I love new sponges and the foaming dish soap, I can't make it today though.

You can do this, it will be over before you know it. There are days when I feel this way about vacuuming, especially the stairs.

9. I don't mind doing dishes either
Ironing is a pain in the ass, though.

4. I don't mind doing the dishes...
but you need to bring them to Providence. I only have so much time, and too many errands. I'll do them between laundry loads. :hi:

25. I would be happy to have you as a guest
for a few days. As long as you do the dishes.

But seriously, you could come for a few days.

All you would have to do is wash the dishes every day.

7. I thank all of you so much.
I just found someone to go out and have lunch with.

This is a standing offer. As there are always dirty dishes.

Ok off to lunch now.

Thanks again.

30. Sounds tempting, my friend, but I have too many of my own...
I don't mind doing the wash, and I really do enjoy cooking, but, I agree, washing the dishes can be a bitch. I'm used to having a dishwasher, but where I'm currently staying, I have to do them all by hand.:-(

But if I lived near Santa Barbara, which is very lovely BTW, I'd take you up on your most generous offer, dishpan hands and all...:-)

34. Thanks! I haven't been around all that much; it's been a busy summer.
But I'm back, never sign off for long, since DU is my home. It's good to see you, always, my friend! I hope that all is well with you. DU has gotten so large that it's easy to lose track of your favorites here, so I'm happy to see you, too...:D
