All the dishes are washed. The sink was scrubbed with Bar Keepers Friend and polished to a shine with paper towels. Sponges were zapped in the microwave. Total time: 18 minutes, 43 seconds. Now for a nice cup of tea.

I still have probably another entire load, plus hand washing to do. daye - can you see you just negated the positive? We sensitive types need to cease and desist doing that. You list here what you do and I suggest to leave out that there is more to do. Post here as many times as you action those dishes and put a smile on your face or do a little dance as you do it - if you can We need all the positive reinforcement we can get. We need to get it from ourselves as well as here. Please try it. Woot to papermoon who cheers us on and kept on keeping on even when the donwannas tried to tie her up. And thank you for your support to us all on this thread.

This probably won't work for most people here, but . . .
Since I live alone, I often watch a DVD movie while I eat dinner on my sofa bed, with a tray on my lap. When I finish eating, I have to get up to move the tray or else my legs will fall asleep. So since I'm up, that's when I rinse the dishes and stack them in the sink in preparation for washing. But first I go back to the movie for a little longer. After a while, there's always a good moment for an "intermission" so I pause the movie, wash the dishes and shine the sink, which takes maybe 10-12 minutes. Then I can relax and enjoy the rest of the movie without the dirty dishes nagging at me. They are DONE.
