Well I must congratulate you on hitting the 2000 postings! Well Done - You must have been hard at work on here I've only been on and off quickly in the last few days! I used to hate doing the dishes the most so I brought a dishwasher to get rid of that lol! My worst one now is ironing and long for the day that they bring out something better! Well done again my friend!

hi there sometimes i hate doing any housework but there are times when i like doing it knowing that's it's going to be clean at the end but the worst things i hate doing is yes te ironing, it takes hours and then my baby creases the clothes up again! so ive made life alot easier and i don't iron the clothes anymore when there dried, i iron them when i need to wear them or the things that don't need ironing or i can't iron, i will put them on the heater for a few minutes to get the creases out! :O)

the household chore i hate doing the most is folding and putting away the clothes. i just find it so boring sitting or standing there just folding over and over and over. it's so boring. and then my daughter walks in and pushes over a pile. so then i have to start over. not a lot of fun.

i hate doing dishes. there is nothing to look at since i don't have a window in front of the sink. can't do dishes while turned around. lol. i also hate ironing. i found that fabric softener allows you to iron less. no you're not weird. i don't love any household chores but someone's got to do it.

The household chore that i really hate doing is the dishes. I have never liked washing dishes. Thank goodness that my hubby doesn't mind washing them...lol.
The household chore that i really get bored of is folding clothes. I don't mind washing clothes, i just get tired of folding them.

I hate to do cleaning, be it kitchen cleaning or bathroom cleaning. Sometime I feel like I hate do any home work lol. I know it sounds very lazy. I don't really enjoy doing chores, but what to do. I know I have to all these neccessary work. But the good thing is my hubby helps me a lot.

Hm. I don't dry dishes. I put them away wet -- accept containers and jars, I let them air dry.
I would have to say I dislike organizing our dvds/vhs collection..or cleaning up the stray dishes (or occasionally since I do have a little brother) and stray food left around the living room or kitchen. That stuff can get kinda gross.

Personally I don't like ANY household chore LOL But I dread doing dishes and cleaning the bathroom. Dishes seem to multiply on the counter all by themselves. If you leave a glass on the counter at night, it has multiplied to a sink full by the morning. And the bathrooom---eeewwwww. I have a teenage son and hubby so I HATE cleaning up the bathroom.

I don't like washing dishes. I think it's no need to dry dishes. Maybe you don't realize it, the cloth is the most dirty thing in the kitchen. And after you use the cloth to dry dishes, you won't know that the dishes are dirty again. Drying them on the strainer is just fine.

To be perfectly honest, I hate them all! I guess the household chore, I mind the least, is laundry, but I hate that too! I want a maid! I am the only person in my house that does the dishes, and other housework, and it would be so much simpler for me, if only people would clean up after themself!

I hate to wash the clothes with my hands. Well, I did not buy a washing machine because I'm not going to stay in Guatemala for good. Perhaps I'll be able to leave in a couple of months. But I really hate to wash clothes with my hands because its really difficult.
