Everyday, I have to do a lot of cleaning in my house. Doing laundry, sweeping, mopping, washing dishes, cooking, feeding my bunny and more. But I hate ironing clothes. I got sweaty all over doing it. I even bought an iron steamer, the one used in most boutiques, but get to use it a few times only. Anyone care to share yours...

I really dislike doing the dishes but I do it because if I don't then it doesn't get done. OF course that really is true for just about all of the household chores. I think what I will put off the most, and what I hate the most is actaully doing the laundry. I tend to forget once I have put clothes in the washer and quite often I have to run them again because they sat in there too long. I hate floding them also, because it hurts my back.
the one thing I really don't mind doing at all, is surprisingly, scrubbing the toilets. I don't know why but maybe it is because they are small and scrubbing them really makes a big difference. I mean they just look so much better after a scrub, so I can really see where my effort went.

I really dislike sweeping and dusting off items. Well, it wouldn't be so bad if I weren't allergic to dust (which is the case). I've tried doing these chores several times but evertime I tried, I'd end up sneezing, wheezing and coughing. =/

Well this is a hard question for me to answer and i've spent awhile thinking about it and there things i don't enjoy doing but i don't really hate doing it.
Having said that i'm not a fan of when people bring in dog terd into the house and i'm the one who notices it.
So i guess thats on, anything else well it probably will come after hitting "post response"
Kudos

Hello Charms,
Funny that I haven't seen this discussion before.
I don't iron, unless it's a special occasion. Even then, I'm probably taking special event wear to the dry cleaners. I let the wind blow the wrinkles out of our every day laundry. And, it does a pretty nice job. Much better than out of the dryer.
As for the chore that I least enjoy, it's probably cleaning out the refrigerator. Yuck!

LOL. This is 4 months already. I have long ago stopped doing laundry work. The detergents are damaging my hands despite wearing gloves and using the washing machine. I bring my laundry to the shop instead every week. As for ironing, I used steam iron. Its easier and my clothes will be wrinkled free within seconds.

Recently only I found out, many people don't like ironing clothes. I'm totally fine with it. I enjoy the moment when I'm ironing, coz in my mind, I will think of something. It's time that I can make my brain peaceful, without any distraction, and concentrate on my thoughts. You can turn on air-con or fan while you are ironing, can't you?
If I'd choose the thing I dislike, it'll be anything which is smelly or dirty. I don't like to throw the rubbish bags, and I don't really like washing dishes. Besides these, I'm quite ok with them.

The only thing I really hate doing in the house is folding the cloths. I don't mind washing and drying the cloths but folding the cloths for some reason bothers me. I love to do everything else in the house.

Hi Bunny! Have missed you. I took a week break from MyLot as my parents came to visit my daughter, hubby, and I so they could be here for my daughters first birthday! Anyhoo, to answer your question the job I hate the most around the house is cleaning the bathroom, especially the toilet! Ewwwwwww, nasty!
