    Can I say the one MOST HATED chore is my DS bathroom. It is in my room and for what ever the reason he is messy, forgets to flush, and NO one warned me that morning wood starts so early and pee will go everywhere.  Seriously I have found it on the opposite wall above the towel rack where I can not reach....HOW ???? 

    But to honest I rather be outside doing yard work than anything inside the house.

    I hate dusting the most I think. It just seems so futile. I mean I can dust every damn thing in the house, and a couple days later there's a layer of dust all over everything again. Especially the ceiling fan! I can't fucking believe how dusty that thing gets.

    The dishes and micorwave! I'd rather clean a toilet anyday over the micorwave.. And I feel like I'm wasting my life away doing the damn dishes.

    I hate putting the clothes away after folding, cleaning the kitchen and scrubbing the bathtubs. Everything else I don't mind except the fact that the dishes never end! Washing dishes so many times in one day makes me crazy, good thing it's less than it's supposed to be since DH is so great he gets foam plates so it's less to wash :)
    If you change their diaper, they will immediately poop in the new one.
    If you mop the floor, they will spill something.
    If you put on fresh socks, you will immediately step on whatever was spilled.
    If you're tired, they will not be.
    If you love them, you will see the beauty in it all.

    I hate cat boxes. I will gladly give massages, blow jobs and uninterrupted video game marathons in exchange for hubby doing the cat boxes.

    On the weird side of chores...

    I love to do laundry. I could do laundry all day. Getting out stains, replacing buttons, mending rips and tears...I just find it so relaxing.

    I love that I can take something dirty and discarded and put it in a magic barrel, add fairy dust or magic potion (or both!) and then let it do it's thing. Then, once these things are clean, smell good and are worthy of my beloved family, I take them out and put them into another magic barrel that dries them, makes them warm and fills the room with perfume.

    Once dry, I fold these things neatly and stack them like gifts for my family to enjoy when they wake up and want to go somewhere and need that perfect, favorite t-shirt or cargo shorts that have pockets big enough to carry necessary gear and treasures.

    Then, like an winged, enchanted messenger of clean and fluffy, I deliver my little, folded packages of Downy-soft goodness to their owners and go along my merry way.

    Now...about this thing called "ironing"...hate it. If it has to be ironed, I won't own it.

    Dishes!   I really wouldn't mind floors if it didn't hurt my back to do it.

    hanging up clothes & washing dishes. I could wash all day if only the clothes would somehow hang themselves on the line & come in dry & folded.

    @beach_hippie, wanna move in with me lol I will gladly take care of the cat boxes for a chance to be pampered by your laundry
    I prefer not to think before speaking. I like being just as surprised as everyone else by what comes out of my mouth.

    I despise dusting and cleaning toilets.  I wish I had a wand I could wave and just have it done.

    I hate bathrooms and baseboards.  The baseboards in my house always seem like they are dirty.

    I make my sons load and empty the dishwasher and put their own laundry away.  I usually let the clean laundry pile up for a few days and then put a movie in and watch it while I fold.

    I hate it all but the worst is Laundry! I hate doing laundry it just never-freaking-ends!!! Dh and I even spent $2,000+ to buy me a brand new washer/dryer set a couple years ago hoping I would despise it less... Too bad he didn't buy me a folding machine and a machine that puts the clothes away as that's the most despised part!

    Cleaning the toilet. I swear my husband and lil boys cannot pee in it. They are all very skilled at peeing on it though.

    I hate the dishwasher because I have hip/back issues from a major surgery last year that still bugs me from the repeated bending.

    Laundry I hate because it's in the basement and again stairs are hard. I really hate putting it away a whole lot more though!

    Hate the bathroom cause with hard water the tub never actually looks clean cause there's always scum left.

    Other than that I really like cleaning, used to love it before I had to have surgery, now mostly just hurts me.

    I seriously hate dishes. If I can get them done, I can tackle the whole house.  Otherwise nothing gets done. I hate it.

    I hate it all.  I am like a little kid when it comes to housework.  I just hate it.

    Luckily DH is a neat freak so he does alot of it.  And I have someone come in and do the deep cleaning every 2 weeks. 

    I really need to grow up.

    I hate cleaning the bathroom and DH hates running the vacuum. I like to vacuum (because I do it right) and he doesn't mind cleaning the bathroom, so that's his normal chore! :) Works out great for us!

    I despise folding laundry; especially mating socks. I have three kids and myself to fold laundry for and my kids have a ridiculous amount of clothing thanks to so many people donating after the tornado back in March. I encourage my kids to wear flip flops and crocs so I don't have to mate socks...lol
