This photo makes me laugh. And cringe. A cringy laugh, really. I really don't mind cleaning black toilets, orange tubs, or rat "raisins" --I can even be Tom Sawyered into the tedium of ironing!--, but the thing I hate the very very most is the dishes (even if they're pre-rinsed!) I know Troy is with me on this one, and I think Mel and Barb are too. Seems to be the last thing to get done at any of our houses. (My college roommates always hated me for my bad habits with dinnerware.)
My favorite chore, like Wellington's, is vacuuming.
And what about you, my Little Pot Pies? Most hated? And favorite?

I dislike dusting. It goes on forever. Move it, dust it, put it back. Soon as you get it done, its back again. Its a lonely job, often with breakables that Aunt Gussies Great-Grandmother gave to your Mother and she handed them down to you, to dust!
I like the dishes. The hot water feels so good on tired hands, and you can chat with the dish dryer, whom, with luck, is very entertaining to talk to. You can splash around and not get into trouble. Drying is ok too, because you can have a race with the dish washer person. Besides, when the commercial is over you can watch t.v. until the next set of endless commercials, when you run back to the dishes, which have been soaking. Its a win win situation. So WHY don't my kids like dishes?
Dishes are the worst. I had a job washing dishes once, but at least I got paid. I think paper plates and plastic cups are the way to go. Take that mother earth!
Favorite job is yard work. Sure it's hot and sweaty, but you can listen to some music while you edge, mow and blow. You get the sun on your face and the wind in your hair. When it's all over it makes a huge improvement on the property.
Dishwashers are the best. Laundry is what I hate. I always forget to take it out of the washer and it gets all stinky, and I have to re-wash it.
i HATE doing the dishes. I would be really embarrassed about them if anyone ever showed up at our house. we haven't had a dishwasher in three years. except me.
