What is your 'least' favorite housecleaning chore? Mine lately is running the sweeper. OOOhh how I hate that. It used to be my favoite. Smelling the room after it was freshly swept was a complete thrill for me. Now just the thought of dragging the sweeper out drives me nuts. What is your 'least' favorite?

I would have to say that Laundry is my least favorite chore by far. It's one of those things that feels like it is never done. Even if you finish the laundry as soon and you get undressed that night...there's more laundry again! Plus I'm really not a big fan of folding it and putting it away. It just seems like doing laundry involves so many steps!
For some reason I also don't really like cleanig the stove. Not sure why because I really like having a clean stove :-) Thankfully my boyfriend dosen't seem to mind doing that chore.

I hate dusting. My husband will do it once a week, but he doesn't do it properly. When he dusts, he HAS to use a furniture polish. He puts too much polish on the cloth, which leaves an oily residue on all the surfaces. That drives me crazy. I'm also a perfectionist and have to have everything in it's place. Hubby enjoys putting my things back facing the wrong way, upside down, 2 inches to the left, etc, just to drive me insane.
I guess I should stop complaining and just do the job myself, huh?

Mine is putting up the laundry. I dont mind washing,drying and folding. I just hate putting them away. I love hanging the laundry out on the line in the summer time. I just HATE putting the laundry away. I will sweep your floor if you will put my laundry away.

I hate dusting! That is the one I will let go for a while. Just moving so many things... I need to get over it!

I hate vacuuming. I'm not sure why, but the comination of the noise, the troublesome cord, and the heat that comes from it makes me cringe. There have even been times when I have gone outside to avoid having to be around the vacuum. I have even made a deal with my sister (who is also my roomate) that if she vacuums the living room, I will clean the entire bathroom. I will get down on my hands and knees and scrub the floor rather than have to use that terrible machine.
I'm also not a big fan of cleaning the stove. Things just get so burnt on there when you are cooking sometimes that by the time you are done scrubbing, you are too tired to appreciate the sense of accomplishment cleaning can give you!

My all time least favorite thing to clean is the fridge. I hate having to take everything out, and clean it by removing all the shelves, draws ect. Then putting everything back in. I have always hated doing that fridge in the kitchen. hahaha

My least favorite chore would have to be running the vacuum. I don't actually mind the act of vacuuming... but I hate all the preparation. I have to straighten the room and pick up stuff off the floor, then move my daughter's toys, and I have to move the end tables and the coffee table and the papasan so I can vacuum under them. It's such a pain. Give me a wide open room, and I can vacuum it all day, but having to move all that stuff gets irritating.
