| Dishwasher Doors |
Everyone has done it that owns a dishwasher. Still, it doesn't help the pain tolerance level.
One duty that my children have around the house is to unload the dishwasher daily, sometimes two times a day around our house. El and L mostly do the silverware. (Fair warning: Check the silverware before using it if you come to my house to eat. :-) ) Anyway, everyone else was done with their part of the dishwasher, except El. He was finishing up his silverware. To put it away, they pull a chair up to the drawer and unload the silverware container.
I had gone to the attic in the schoolroom to get down Easter decorations. I know I'm a little late getting them up since it is only a week away. Oh well, I knew it would bring curiosity from the bwins, having never participated in this holiday before.
I was carrying a big box quickly, almost running, into the kitchen because the bottom was busting out, when BAM!! BAM!! Yes, that was the sound of my two shins whacking the open dishwasher door at high speed. The scream afterwards was just as loud and the contents of the box were scattered all over the kitchen floor. You see, El had finished his silverware duty and had put his container back in the dishwasher. However, he had failed to close it up, or push in the silverware drawer, or put up the chair he had used to put the silverware away.
My shins now have 2 bright shiners on them, just in time for those spring capris and Easter! |

Oh my you poor thing I'm sure that did hurt:( Hope your knees heal quickly! I am so impressed your kiddos do the dishes! Hope mine do one day.

Ouch. I've done that before, too. But never with both legs.

Yow! I'm so glad that in this house the diswasher is situated in the corner of the cabinets--a safe zone.
