My habits: Can't go to bed until it's done

At the end of the day, dishes have to be done.

There cannot be any dishes in the sink when I go to bed. They don’t need to be put away, but they should at least be drying on the countertop. I’ve always been like this; even in college when I barely had a sink to do dishes in—it got done.

By the way, I don’t use the dishwasher. I do my dishes by hand. Perhaps because this was one of my chores as a teenager…? Who knows. It’s just never been an appliance I have used on the regular.
