    a "I don't like...house chore"

    List the top three things you dispise to do in your home, ones that you would avoid if at all possible (and we know it's not possible, but...) I think we might be able to come up with some ways to make it more enjoyable (even if it's just laughing about what someone else said about that chore)

    So, I will start
    1 Vacumming stairs (we live in a split level)
    2 Folding laundry (espically socks)
    3 Drying dishes

    Excuse any spelling errors, little sleep, lots to do and a killer headach :love:

    I don't mind the cleaning so much as the putting things away and decluttering. I have a tendency to pile things and never really know where to put things like:

    batteries
    papers I will need 2 days from now
    mail I'm not ready to open
    manuals
    etc.

    I'm just not very good at organizing I guess, which makes it a pain to put things away and then find them later.

    Oh, how I'd love to switch chores with many of you! Odd as it sounds I don't mind picking up dog poop (grew up on a farm I think my sniffer is immmune to the smell of poop) and I enjoy folding laundry and emptying the dishwasher.

    My worst three chores:
    Sweeping and mopping floors
    cleaning the boys bathroom
    and I really think it's a tie for third with scooping the litter box and washing dishes.

    Some of you are listing "chores" which I totally don't even consider on the list of things that must be done. Dusting?? Paaahahahaaha! You *must* be kidding. ;)

    My three:
    1. Dishes, without a doubt, every aspect of them (ds puts away clean ones)
    2. mopping (don't mind sweeping and vacuuming so much, but mopping kills my back)
    3. folding and putting away laundry (don't mind switching the loads - clean laundry sits in baskets for days around here LOL)

    I HATE...

    Putting laundry away, I don't mind washing, drying, hanging out or folding it but I HATE putting it away, so I leave that chore for dh and kids...lol

    I hate washing Silverware, I don't mind anything else (no dishwasher, unless I count)

    and washing the stove irritates me...lol we have a black propane stove and you have to pull everything off of it to wash it the way I want it..:roll:
