I cannot stand doing laundry. Putting it in the machine, hanging it out, bringing it in, hanging it back up in the closet…UGH. It just makes me so…annoyed.

I hate scrubbing the shower and the tub. I hate dusting. The rest is tolerable. Laundry is easy - the machines do all the work, and I fold while watching TV - what could be easier? Ironing? Can’t remember the last time I had the iron out. As for dishes, quick rinse and pop 'em in the dishwasher. Vacuuming is also easy - I can reach all the main areas in the house from a single outlet - thanks to a long power cord. Yard work can be invigorating, except in mid-July - too durn hot and buggy.
