Temat: Chores you hate/enjoy

Inspired by Anna's window cleaning pet peeve :)
Which of the household chores do you enjoy and which ones do you simply hate? If you are living with a partner - who does the ironing, and who unloads the dishwasher?

I hate ironing, yet do it quite regularly.
I could clean the windows all the time and I don't mind having to clean all 5 of them, as big as they are.
Mopping the floors is easy, dusting's ok. Doing the dishes is a nightmare, so I went for a dishwasher.
Taking the trash out is fine with me, since I recycle.
I don't mind changing cat litter, and love taking care of my potted plants.

I HATE cleaning up after my son!!! (and am teaching him to keep his room in moderate order)

If you could offer any chores exchange, what would you like to exchange and for what? (for those who live in the same city it might be a Time Bank idea!)

First offer: window cleaning for ironing/washing dishes

Everybody knows what I hate so far, I also don't like doing laundry (I only have a washing machine for 1 year).
I don't mind doing the dishes (I am always the person who does it whenever I go). I just don't like washing anything made of glass - that's all.
I don't like taking care of plants/pets. My husband takes care of his plants, I don't help him at all. I once only colored the vase:), it was fun.

I'm looking forward to being rich and have the work nicely outsourced.

Noone can clean it the way I do.
Besides, a cleaning lady can not enter my studio/office room, because I have my most important stuff in there. Instruments, microphones, electronics etc.

But when it starts to feel like it is your destiny to clean the house, I hate all of them.
And now, this is my moment of hate, because I'm just after a small 'remont', everything looks dirty to my eyes. I hate the thread too. Maybe I can have alook later.

I hate gardening too.

But I'm too talented, and time to time I like making people happy, what can I do?

I share Tatiana's hatred for ironing. Ironing shirts in particular. No other house chore is more frustrating for me!

Yet I do it almost every day as I love wearing shirts.
That is except for vacation when I'm usually shirtless.
Just like now.

Ok, I don't hate gardening too.

But please, not while I'm arranging the next hit song.
I'd like to know if I'm needed in the garden 2 days before. Then I can prepare myself psychologically to enjoy it.

I hate lawn mowing when the lawn is taller than me, though. No exceptions there.
Don't get closer than 50 metres to me at those times.

I reckon there's nothing in the world that needs ironing - so I never do it.
Cleaning ovens - now that's bad.

That always puzzles me. What the heck do people bake in their ovens that requires so much cleaning??? I simply clean it right away every time, no need for aggressive chemicals.

I could do some exchange, becouse I hate cleaning the windows and moping the flors.
I don't mind ironing, doing the dishes and all the other things.
My plants...well... they rather have to take care for them self.

I agree with you Tatiana about the oven.

I only wish that were true...

I hate almost everything around the house apart from one thing I find therapeutic: washing up

Washing up is bloody great!!

Washing up is horrible (I use a dishwasher). So is ironing!

I could do the cooking instead.

A hit. Saved some for tomorrow. I have a gift for preparing meat, btw.
I would love to have a big family so I could cook for them, and serve them lovely breakfasts. And wholesome yet yummy lunches. And amazing dinners.

I rarely cook nowadays :(
