DISHES! THE DISHES!

Kendra

I’m in a pickle here and I’ve reached my wits end with it. I’m 17 weeks pregnant and have been sensitive and sick 99% of the time. Too much walking makes me sick, certain smells make me sick, car rides make me sick, most food makes me sick, and doing the dishes makes me sick. I can’t stand the smell, the feel, etc. of dirty dishes. My hubby, god bless his soul, doesn’t rinse dishes off so they food sticks or leaves residue and makes it even harder. I just continuously gag until I throw up and it happens multiple times per cleaning session not to mention I become kinda irritated when I just keep throwing up with nothing in my stomach and I admit I do snap at him. I told my spouse I can’t do the dishes anymore. He hates doing them but said he’d handle them. At that time I believed him and had faith in him to do them since I am unable to. We have a kitchen full of dirty dishes that have been sitting there for a MONTH (not exaggerating I wish I was) I have asked him to do them and he says he will in a minute. Never does. Our kitchen is COVERED in dirty dishes and to avoid doing them he’s bought paper plates, cups, bowls, and utensils. I’m so over it at this point it makes me so irrationally angry that I just wanna Chuck all of it into the trash can. I know it sounds wasteful but when you have something with caked up chicken and bbq sauce that’s been sitting for weeks it gets old really fast. I’m so ashamed of the state of my house, I don’t let people come over, it smells, etc. I handle everything else, all I’m asking of him is to do the dishes and take out the trash, the trash will reek too and I get mad and his response is “how do I know to do it if you don’t tell me?” Like sir you have eyeballs! Do you not see it?! Am I overreacting by wanting to pitch all the dishes? I’m just so over it.
