I need to get my butt off here and go clean. I need to clean the bathroom. Boo.

What do you hate to clean?
What chore don't you mind doing?

    I hate cleaning the showers and I hate folding clothes. I will wash and dry them all day long but i despise folding them.

    I don't mind to vacuum or to clean toilets. I am weird.

    I get in these weird modes where I bust through a whole house cleaning in 2 hours.  When I am in those modes, I don't mind cleaning anything.  

    I HATE cooking....like, loathe it.  Thank God DH does 100% of the cooking for the family and enjoys it.

    I really hate folding and putting away laundry and doing the dishes (no dishwasher for us).  I particularly like all the other cleaning but I prefer it over folding and dishes.  Yuck.

    Oh wow, really? Cooking is one of my all-time favorites things to do!!  What don't you like about it? (honestly curious!)

    I don't like cleaning, either.  I did not get my moms gene, she LOVES cleaning. LOVES. Ugh.
    I HATE folding laundry.  That's why it sometimes sits in the basket for a week. Then I get mad because it's wrinkled.
    I don't mind dusting.

    It is a super weird thing to not like, ITA.  I guess part of it is that my mom never really cooked a lot when I was growing up (she was the oldest girl of 6 and basically raised her siblings, so decided to say, "F it" and not cook as an adult), so there was no learning how to cook in my youth or passion for cooking in my house, which is weird because my mom and I are Italian.

    Now I just find it annoying that you have to be slow and deliberate and patient, I go nuts.  Nothing I cook ever turns out right, and I just overall find it very stressful.  I have ruined box-mix brownies because I didn't have the patience to stir them by hand.

    I hate cleaning the bathrooms..... it seems like the minute I clean them, the next minute they are dirty again. Cleaning my shower is something I hate doing, and always procrastinate on.

    I love doing laundry but hate folding towels. I'll fold a thousand shirts before touching a towel. I don't know where this came from, my mom irons them ffs. Okay so ironing is a tie with folding towels.

    I hate cooking because of the mess it makes. I'm like a 3yo and can't seem to handle stirring without spilling. I don't like washing dishes either, but I'll wash before I vacuum.

    Or fold towels. Anything else is fine. (Still vaccum everyday btw.)

    I hate cleaning in all forms. Luckily Husband pitches in.

    I enjoy cooking and serving food when I feel up to it (boo, depression). Husband usually handles cleanup.

    What do I hate cleaning?
    All the things.
    Really.  All of them.
    Well... I don't mind cleaning the melted chocolate off of my fingers, as long as I can do it with my tongue.

    I hate cleaning the bathroom, especially the shower. HATE IT!

    I also hate doing the dishes. There's always dishes, even if I just did the dishes.. suddenly there's more. Ugh!

    I kind of hate all the cleaning. I want a cleaning lady. We are hoping we can afford to hire someone this year.

    I'm trying to think of something I don't mind... I got nothing. Haha! I do love cooking.

    p.s. Ironically, I worked for several years as a housekeeper at a B&B. I didn't hate the job that much, because since everything got cleaned every day, nothing was ever really dirty. My favorite things to do at that job were polishing the wood (it was a Victorian era home, lots of wood!) and ironing. We ironed the bedsheets!!

    I hate cleaning. I love when the house is clean but cleaning sucks! My H doesn't "see" when things are a mess so I either have to give him a list or just do it myself.
