Deliver me from even
So, what does one do when one has the following:
1) Several dishwasher loads of dishes that need to be done.
2) A kitchen that is an ungodly mess (we're talking "new life-form" experiments are occurring without any intention or provocation on the owner's part)
3) INTENSE spring cleaning of the entire apartment, floor-to-ceiling & front-to-back & including carpet steaming/cleaning, that must be done over the next 2 weeks or one will die buried under all the mess, oh, and not be able to start on the very important "Apartment Therapy" that one's been meaning to do for almost 2 years.
4) A kitchen sink that has decided to "disembowel" itself, leaving one standing in an ocean of hot water (as some of the above mentioned dishes were being hand-washed) and a plumber that has yet to show up.
The answer: wash everything in the bathtub! What??!!! If it's good enough for washing yourself, it's good enough for washing your dishes and using the water for household cleaning.....BUT, I do have day-mares of that "Seinfeld" episode with Kramer "cooking" while showering. EEeewww.
PS - Actual content & update of what's been going on in my life to follow when I have ANY time left from my attempts at getting caught up after almost 3 weeks of business travel.
