Household chores

[Mermaid]

Socks do suck, but Mr. DD does his own. Of course, he's colorblind, so he jsut buys all the same color mostly.
I think I hate unloading the dishwasher most of all. Vacuuming might come in a close second.

My neighbor says she hates grocery shopping. This is how she described it (and I never quite thought of it in this terms )

"First you unload the groceries from the shelf.
Then you load them into your shopping cart.
Then you unload them onto the conveyer belt.
Then you load them back into the cart.
Then you unload them into your car.
Then you load them into your kitchen.

Load unload load unload load unload. I hate grocery shopping."

1. Changing the cat litter box. There are not adequate words to describe how much I hate this chore.

2. Sorting through junk mail/magazines/receipts/random paper detritus that multiplies in my house faster than a forest full of bunnies. I know, I've tried all the tips and tricks, it just doesn't matter, it accumulates anyway and drives me crazy.

3. Laundry - everything except sorting before-hand, and folding & putting away after. Those I like, it's everything in between that makes me want to scream.

I love to vacuum, except the stairs, and strangely enough, I think sorting mismatching socks is fun, it's like a little scavenger hunt each time. Dusting, while I don't do it enough, is somewhat pleasant for me as well. Ditto for windows and mirrors. Grocery shopping, dishes & toilets, eh, I'm neutral. What is this "mop" of which you speak???

We need to start a cleaning co-op, where we trade chores with each other. I'll sort y'alls socks if someone would come vacuum my stairs. (I won't ask anyone to change the litter box, I can't imagine there's a person on the planet who likes that job.)

I hate to fold clothes. I don't mind putting them in the wash but I hate folding them.

the whole lot called "housework", particularly cleaning bathrooms

Especially after males have used them! One of the great benefits of being single is the lack of piddle on the floor and razor dust in the sink!

Maybe we should create a Stepford Sowaller to do all of this for us?

You got that right. Hubby loves to go with me to the grocery store. He leisurely walks around looking at all of the interesting items, not helping me with the list unless I give item-by-item instructions. This is while I, on the other hand, have a list in Excel arranged in order of the aisles in the store. I am hauling a$$ so much to get the heck out of there that I have had several collisions. Once the automatic door at Kroger didn't open as fast as I expected, and I broke it. OOPS!

Even when hubby (God love him) helps me unload the groceries, he takes each item, one by one, out of the bag. Then one by one, he takes them to the pantry/fridge. I, on the other hand, arrange the items on the conveyor belt according to where they will end up on my shelves so that they will be bagged in that order. Then instead of emptying the bags, I carry a bag over to the appropriate shelf and unload it all at once. It really saves time.

Can we say OCD?
