I laid around most of the day today but around 3 I went over to my neighbors to have dinner with her and watch some movies. Her kitchen was a mess, dishes everywhere and my OCD went into overdrive. So, I went back home and put on some bummy clothes and did her dishes. Dishes are one of the hardest things for me to do. Standing (knees) bending (back)... I hate it.

And the worst part is that she didn't even say thank you. I was really disappointed in her.

I understand your disappointment. My daughter forgot how to say thank you too. However we all need to give without expecting to recieve even a thank you. She'll probably say thank you or do something nice for you sometime soon.

You know you did a wonderful thing for her.

I agree with sis-she probably was embarrassed.
Do you have a step stool or something like it, to do dishes? Mine is the perfect hight for the sink and gives my legs a rest.

Can you come over and do my dishes?
