I do not plan on ever doing the dishes unless the sink is at least 3/4 of the way full.
Interesting. Is the sink at that 3/4 mark yet?
Not yet.
It is ok to have rules about doing the dishes. You should do them and not let it pile up because they will be harder to clean if the food dries on.
I'm going to get my boyfriend to do it with me.
If this rule is helpful for you to not stress about the dishes than that is fine. Everyone's brain works in different ways when it comes to organization. As long as this works for you then that is enough!
