Luanne Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I'd say mine is doing the laundry. Of course, I don't do it all the time. My daughter and I take turns doing it. My mother does her own laundry so it is just for the two of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momto10blessings Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Favorite chore!?? Hmmm... Really, I can't think of one chore that I look forward to. How sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1GirlTwinBoys Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 That's really hard because I don't like cleaning, but do want everything clean and in order all the time. Maybe vacuuming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucyStoner Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Screening cleaning services? That doesn't count!? Oh well. I enjoy ironing, deep cleaning surfaces and cooking. I really like cooking. I can only really get myself to like folding laundry if I let myself watch crappy TV at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

countrygal Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Taking a bag and walking through rooms just to throw stuff out :) I also like to organize things like my desk but I don't have time to keep up on it as much as I would like. You can come do my laundry. I keep waiting for the perfect laundry loving fairy to drop out of the sky and do all my laundry the way I want it done!!

happi duck Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Without a doubt, hanging laundry on the outdoor clothesline! My year-round favorite is hand washing dishes. We don't have a dishwasher but I actually do like washing dishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Um_2_4 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 What language are you all speaking??? :laugh: Is this some sort of code I missed out on :toetap05: ...... 'Cuz I can't think of one I enjoy, dislike the least maybe. :tongue_smilie: Maybe organizing book shelves :smilielol5: might make the enjoy list (does that count?). The other day DS10 was shocked to find out that I don't enjoy cleaning toilets. We were having discussion about things we may not find fun, but we have to do anyways. So I used scrubbing toilets as an example.... I guess he really thought that was a "mom's idea of fun" <his words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemiSweet Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I like cooking most of the time and organizing and/or decluttering things. Not really a fan of chores in general, but I love a clean, organized house. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corraleno Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I dislike any and all chores that need to be done on a daily or weekly basis (laundry, dishes, sweeping, washing floors, etc.) because I hate doing the same thing over and over and over. I do like DIY projects, though, because there's more of a sense of accomplishment when they're done: painting walls, sanding/staining/varnishing floors, refinishing furniture, redecorating, landscaping, etc. My least favorite DIY job is stripping wallpaper — but I'd still rather do that than sweep the kitchen floor or clean toilets.

Audrey Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I really like washing windows. I do it every Sunday. I love how sparkly clean windows make a place brighter. I like the rhythm and repetition of the pattern each pane receives. I like searching the panes for any signs of streaks and making them disappear. I love the view afterward. I find it all very relaxing and satisfying. ETA: After reading the other replies, I didn't realise cooking is a chore. I really like cooking, too. Not sure if I like it more than windows or not, though. I'll have to think about that one! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I agree with Corraleno and it's reminded me of landscaping. Officially changing my vote to Landscaping. I love pulling weeds and trimming trees. So satisfying. I forgot to think of it as a chore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawz4me Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Laundry. The machines do almost all the work, and I get to smell all the clean, fresh stuff afterwards. Easy peasy and a great "reward" for doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 None. But I particularly hate the repetitive, never-ending chores like laundry and dishes. I guess projects - reorganizing, moving furniture around would be my favorites. A few times a year I reorganize our garage (when dd goes to school and when she comes back). I kind of like doing that because it has a clear goal and ending point. There's some satisfaction to seeing it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewe Mama Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Does grocery shopping count? It gets me out of the house. It involves choosing good things to eat. It involves spending money. It involves nourishing my whole family. I get to fill up the cupboards and fridge when I get home and put everything away. Yep, grocery shopping is my favorite household chore.

Audrey Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Grocery shopping does count. Oh! Then I like grocery shopping, too. Dh and I usually do it together.

Laura Corin Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Picking flowers for the house. Every Saturday morning, I go into the garden and pick flowers for the kitchen table, the front hall, the sitting room and Husband's desk. Some I choose from the general flower beds, but I also grow a small patch of annual flowers every year especially for cutting. There are only about two months when there are no flowers to cut, but I usually manage berries instead. I have planted a patch of willows for early spring catkins - they should be usable this year.

wintermom Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I like filling up the dishwash, as it usually clears off the counters to make things a little tidier in the kitchen. Then I get to put in the soap, push some nifty buttons, and listen to "someone" else do all the work! There's also the intellectual aspect of trying to fill every last possible space as efficiently as possible so the most items get in and get clean. It's a challenge. And no one in the house seems to rise to this challenge with the same dedication as me. (nerd) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elfgivas Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 if its a chore, i think by definition it isn't fun. but cooking isn't a chore ;), and baking is definitely not a chore. and i like hanging laundry out at night in the desert summer. the great horned owl will often hoot away at me, and the breeze is gentle, and its only about 80 degrees, and the stars are spectacular. i have reached a point where i don't actively dislike most of it, its just something that has to be done and i do it. fwiw, ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I love cooking, taking care of my bees and oddly, cleaning out the chicken house. I think it has to be the fact that all those chores, even messing with the bees has appreciation tacked on to it. My family enjoys the food, the bees enjoy a clean, nice hive and appreciate sugar water if needed, and the chickens are openly enthusiastic about fresh shavings and clean water and fresh nesting material. It's nice to have your hard work appreciated. :closedeyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chocolatechip Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I see many people mentioning cooking. I guess I never thought of cooking as a chore.
