They DO screw it up and half the time my DH doesn't soak or pre-rinse the dishes. He thinks there is actually someone in there scrubbing all the stuff off. Ticks me off! :) I am with you on not letting anyone else load the dishwasher! They DO screw it up and half the time my DH doesn’t soak or pre-rinse the dishes.

Being in and out of the hospital the past few weeks with my pregnancy, I have absolutely gone NUTS when I come home and find how my mom/m-i-l/hubby have loaded it. It makes NO SENSE and can only fit about 1/3 of the dishes that I can fit in. I did the flylady thing for a while, but it was quite overwhelming to me and made me feel completely stressed. It just didn't work for my personality, I guess. Anyway, I do a few of the things she suggests, but I forgot about the sink of hot, soapy water thing. I need to reinstate that. Especially now that baby #2 is just a week and a half away from coming (at the most). I need all the help I can get!!! :) I am completely with you on the dishwasher.

All the emails made me always feel behind, but I do follow the shiny sink principle. A hot sink of soapy water is a cook's best friend! Thanks for the tips. I had to give up flylady.

I let my husband do all the dishes, load the washer, run it. Then I put away. But I do wish he could learn some fly rules and not let them sit overnight in the sink. BUT if I don't say anything, he is usually washing them first thing in the morning! Great post Jill. I let my husband do all the dishes, load the washer, run it. Then I put away.

My husband shares you, um, compulsion, about the loading, but since he only bothers with the dishes about every 2 weeks; not so much of a problem over here. What I really wanted to say is: Props for not gettin' up in your old man's grille, homes. I couldn’t care less how the dishwasher is loaded.

I have gotten better at the picking up as I go, but after a long baking or cooking session I probably leave 25% of my mess for either hubby or later. If I left 100% I'd never find the kitchen LOL!!! Can't judge you on the dishwasher thing... every time dh loads it I get a knot in m y stomach and if I don't leave the room I will reload it! He had our 8 year old load it the last time & it's till sitting there because I can't even bring myself to empty the clean dishes it's SO WRONG LOL!
