Housework? Which is worst?
 
Ironing a shirt for work atm. Only thing worse is scrubbing bathroom tile. What do you dislike?

Dishes are the worst. I don't have a dishwasher. I will clean everything else in the world first. I should be doing them now.
Second - cleaning your fridge.
I like laundry, and vacuuming.

Oh, and why don't you get a steamer? Do you have to have creases?

I dislike removing the "sink salad" from the kitchen drain catch. Emptying the compost is a close second.

Housework in general - especially using the washing machine, it gives you an electric shock everytime you reach in to remove items of clothing :laugh:

Just doing small touch ups. Dry cleaners left a funny crease. oooh. fridge cleaning is bad too.

Vacuuming, my back hurts every time. Then ironing. Although I don't mind that so much when you have one of those over the door ironing boards. I just hate unfolding and folding it. Who invented that contraption. Why don't they update it so it isn't so awkward? Why don't I update it and make a fortune? Hmm...

aaaaah.... a thread i can relate to. :wavey:

i HATE housework. all housework. i envy those people who find it therapeutic. i get no satisfaction from any of it. problem is - i love a clean house.

i loathe cleaning the bathtub. i hate vacuuming and dusting. i hate doing the floors. the only thing i don't mind is dishes - because i have a dishwasher.

my solution? i've decided to get a cleaning woman. :nod:

I hate it all. But the worst ones are:

Scrubbing the toilet
Changing the litterbox
Cleaning the refrigerator (you never know what you're going to find in there)

Worse still is yard work. Anything that involves being out in the heat and dealing with dirt and bugs is not high on my list of ways to spend the weekend.

I laffed out loud at this! Suze, you're a character!

I hate dusting. I'll scrub toilets and mop bathroom floors on my hands and knees before I'll dust! Vaccuuming is the easiest IMO...

also, I hate ironing too. and I have one of those over the door ironing boards too!

Is that what you have? How well does it work?

I personally think steamers are a pain....at least the hand held versions....

I hate putting clean laundry away. I don't mind washing, or even folding. But putting away kills me. I once saw some famous person showing on TV how he had his washer and dryer IN his walk-in closet, and I thought that was pure genius.
