What's your least favorite job to do around the house? Mine is definitely folding laundry as evidenced by the huge pile of clean clothes on the couch in my spare bedroom. Makes a cozy napping spot for the kitties, though!

I don't mind washing the clothes, I don't mind folding the clothes, but for some reason I hate putting the clothes up!

Actually I pretty much don't like any of them though ...

Yup, gotta agree on that one. I grew up without one and then I got spoiled with 3 years living in an apartment and then a house with a dishwasher. I don't have one now and I absolutely hate washing my dishes, especially glasses!

Yardwork is the absolute worse. We never had to deal with it until we bought the house and now I can not wait to finish school so we can get a yard guy!

The inside chore I dislike the most is cleaning the shower. It's such a pain because it isn't a bath tun it's just a shower so there isn't a way to run water inside without running the shower and then I would get all wet. So I have to take a large pan in the bathroom and use the water from the sink to rinse the soap off after scrubbing.
Anyone else have a shower like this and have another method of cleaning it?

Yardwork! But since we live in an apt. right now, that's not a worry. Currently, my least favorite chore is doing the laundry b/c we don't have a washer/dryer (hopefully soon!), so I have to go down the street to the laundromat!

Have you tried the Japanese "pinch" method of folding laundry? It can be done VERY fast.

You need flash to view but it make you realise that there is more than one way to fold your clothes.
