I pretty much hate 'em all, but was reminded today that it has to be cleaning the fridge. Hands down.

I second this one.

I hate doing the thing that my cleaning service can't do -- organize my closets and the attic. That's why they are totally disorganized. ;-) There are clothes in my backup closet that are from the 90's. The closet in the library has a trash bag full of EOBs that I just can't seem to get around to sorting out. Haven't touched the attic since we moved in. 
After our daughter was born, we had a full-time nanny until daughter went to pre-school. That woman was awesome -- she helped me keep all of my closets and drawers and "stuff" organized. It was awesome.

chores?? :shock: Right now, I WISH I had time for chores, the clean clothes are piling up in my bedroom and I have no time to put them away. I have to dig through my laundry basket :roll:
I really hate washing and cleaning out the car

I hate folding clothes. I don't mind putting them in the wash but folding takes up too much time.

Oh, dangitall! I almost forgot! The leaves, I hate the leaves. Is that considered household? At the beach, pine needles.....hate the pine needles. Same concept.
Darlene is my middle name, not my nickname
I do not like any household chores. None of them. You would never know it though based on all the cleaning products I have. I buy them all, and I guess somehow they are going to do the cleaning themselves without my intervention... ;-)

No one mentioned toilets,especially if there's a little boy or a man who acts like one in the house.

Oh the nagging that goes along with it. It's so hard keeping up the nagging.

I hate folding clothes and putting them away. I don't think the second part would bother me as much if we had enough drawer space to be organized. I avoid putting the clothes away and eventually Skunky does it. Instead of being appreciative, I get annoyed because he packs stuff in the drawer so tightly that I you can't find anything without ransacking the contents.

I second that! I don't mind folding or hanging but putting away BITES! Even just putting away my own clothes but then you multiply that by 4 boys and ChefEd
. Could we ever have enough drawer and closet space? I don't think so. The boys refuse to hang stuff up because they say they can't find anything or have too much trouble with the hangers (WHATEVER) but we would need a seperate wing on the house to have enough drawer space for all of us.Work clothes, play clothes, school clothes, summer clothes winter clothes, running clothes, cycling clothes, beach clothes, clothes that one kid grew out of but the other one will fit into next week. WHOOO BOY. I'm going back to Little House on the Prairie days and owning two dresses!!! NOT

I apparently grew up in a parallel dimension - where your clothes only got washed if they appeared in the basement w/ empty pockets at the appointed time and it was your job to get the basket of clean clothes and put them away....................and if you didn't, they no longer got washed for you.
And if you didn't put in your food requests when Papa Scooterbug made the grocery list you were S.O.L. on having any input on meals (but still had to help make them and do the dishes).

We had to bring our own clothes down to the basement, then once they were washed we had to bring them back up to the bedrooms and put them away. If that wasn't done in a timely fashion, Saturdays were spent in the house helping to clean.

Can I hear an AMEN, sistahs?!!! ^^^
When we were packing up our kitchen FBB looks at me and says, "how many pucking cleaning products do we own and do I need to get you in a 12 step program?" He shut it when I got the nine iron out and waved it around his pointy head.

We have everyone here doing their laundry too but it is hard to yell at the kids for not doing a good job putting away their clothes when mine are in folded piles on a chair in my room. It doesn't stop me from getting on to them....just have to add the 'DO AS I SAY, NOT AS DO" clause.
Does anyone want to come over and scrub my bathrooms?

No, but we've got plenty of cleaning products for you.

Didn't you two live in luxury. I remember when my mom took us to Wal-Mart to buy us our very own laundry baskets. That was her hint that it was now our problem.
