I'm not a fan of washing dishes by hand, but depending on the dishes on my days to do them, I can get through them easily and I enjoy it a bit. I hate doing it the most any day we have hamburgers for dinner.
We actually had the money to buy a new dishwasher, but then our washing machine broke, and Mom didn't want to wash clothes by hand. So we're still saving up for a dishwasher, but knowing our luck, something else will break down by the time we have the money again. It's kinda funny, once the twins left for their missions, suddenly things were breaking around the house. (Though granted, it was the ten-year mark since we moved into this house.) The only thing my parents aren't willing to buy a new one of is a family laptop, since its absence at least has kept the squabbles down. Any withdrawals my brothers have had are pretty much gone at this point, it hardly comes up in passing.
