Making a bed can be satisfying. Especially if the sheets have been laundered in the last six months.

I don't have a favorite house chore. I no sooner clean something, wash something, do anything, and it feels like I've accomplished nothing. If I had to pick, I'd have to say dishes is the least evil, along with laundry because I have machines that do the work.

I love the sound of the dishwasher running. But I basically wash my dishes before I put them in there.

I enjoy vacuuming. Seeing the lines in the carpet where it has been freshly vacuumed is appealing to me. However, I hate cleaning the toilet.

Vacuuming is alright. I guess its kind of fun seeing bad things disappear. I should say I hate doing the dishes, but they kind of nice in summer when so hot out or in winter and can warm your hands. Our dishwasher has been broke for 10 years. I have to do them all by hand. I would go with laundry. I hate folding clothes for one, but even before that such a pain in the butt to get all your clothes together carry the big heavy basket and dump soap in the thing and push a button. I can't stand it I tell you. Then I go that was not so bad, but the mental part of laundry to get it going is so draining.

@TheHorse Okay... We set dishes into the sink and run water into them so food doesn't stick. I wash dishes at least twice a day. I don't LIKE washing dishes but I dislike getting ants or roaches more.

My question is: Which ones do you enjoy doing the most and the least. I love vacuuming. It's like mowing the lawn. But I do not like scraping yesterday's food off of dishes as much.

My favorite chore is sweeping up the junk inside of my bedroom and the kitchen/ The worst part of working is picking up the fallen tree branches outside the house.

Doing the dishes by hand and doing laundry are my favorite household chores. I only do the pots and pans and any large serving pieces by hand, otherwise all of my dishes go into the dishwater. I actually hate dusting as well as vacuum cleaning, probably vacuuming the worst.

Do you have a landing strip near your house? I could come by periodically in my Lear Jet and do your vacuuming for you. You can help pay for fuel with Scotch, assuming you're OK with Scotch.

Two house chores I hate with a passion--dusting. I hate to dust, truly. The other one is cleaning the oven. I am allergic to most cleaners, so it takes a long time to do the cleaning with mild cleaners. That Easy-Off type of stuff puts me in the throat swelling mode and I just get so sick. Want to come over and clean my oven? I'll do all your laundry. Hey, if we were closer it would be a great trade!!

I need to do a lot around my apartment but I have sort of let everything slide. It began like a game, I had a bunch of papers and other stuff on a table to sort through, Freddie dumped most of it on the floor, I picked up, he dumped and I got tired of this and let everything stay where it was and kept working on my PC. Now Freddie sees that everything is still all over the place and he has started knocking videos off a plastic shelving to add tot he mess I just keep looking at my PC
