22 plastic cups

[Dymphna]

My son asked for milk. I went to get a cup. There were no cups in the cabinet.

Where is your cup from earlier?

:shrug:

So I loaded the dishwasher. It's only been about 24 hours since I last loaded the dishwasher. There were 22 plastic cups. Mostly souvenir-type cups.

There are only 3 kids.

Time to throw away about 19 cups and teach them to do their own damn dishes.

I'd have a fit!

At least you can find them! Ours seem to disappear into some great abyss somewhere!

every night my kids ask for a glass of water before bed. I give them a small dixie cup w/ water and my oldest stows his away for some reason.

They were at grandmas for a visit the past few days and when I went to change his sheets I found about 45 of them stashed between the wall and the bed frame ( he has a loftbed )

My dishwasher eats silverware. I mean, it has to be the dishwasher, right? My family couldn't possibly be tossing silverware (not plastic) into the trash, can they?

I feel your pain only my husband is the worst. He leaves 1/2empty cups all over the house. Every night I have to go around and collect at least 3 or the cat will nock them over in the night. I think they're working together on this.

Silverware goes to the same place where the sock monster in the dryer lives

I know exactly how you feel but we don't even have kids yet! I'm constantly picking up cups, wrappers, laundry, shoes from every room in the house. And if we worked out in the yard, there will also be cups all over the yard.

Oh well, I can't complain too much because I'm lucky to have such a great hubby - he's just not a neat freak like I am. I wonder if he'll get better when we have kids? Nope, doubt it!

Don't hold your breath for that!
Does he keep is garage nice and neat?
That bothers the heck out of me. He'll trash the house and wait for me to clean it up but keeps his garage just so. Oh well I've gotta take the good with the bad and at least there's more good than bad for us so I'll tough it out.
I'm sure he could come up with a list of stuff to complain about me.

No, our garage isn't too organized because I don't bother with it but he does know where most of his tools are in the mess. He's not too organized and thinks he's allergic to cleaning but I can't really complain too much. He works his azz off (long hours too) and he does a lot around the house (projects, outdoor maintenance, etc). Plus he's a great guy and we have a great marriage. I used to get annoyed about it but I kind of gave up. Life's too short and I'm not perfect either but don't tell him that!
