What chores do you enjoy?

For some odd reason I'm quite partial to cleaning the kitchen after a big cook, I just like tuning out and not really thinking about anything. I also quite enjoying doing maintenance on my bikes, but I'll enjoying anything technical that involves using my hands that isn't computer related.

 

There are many things that I enjoy more than chores. If I had to choose: I enjoy cleaning up clutter, I enjoy helping my kids clean their rooms, and I enjoy cleaning the fridge.

 

What chores do you enjoy? - None.
If I like doing something then it's not a chore.

 

i LOVE doing yard work. it relaxes me. and the yard looks good

 

Me, too! I mean, once I actually motivate myself to start the organization process. It's the one "chore" that I really get enjoyment out of.... especially when it involves my bookshelves. I like that everything has a place, even though I may be the only person to understand why an item is in a particular spot.

 

None. I tolerate washing dishes more than others, but I still dislike it.

 

laundry, organizing computer files. that's pretty much it.

 

Anything that makes me feel like Sisyphus via Halx. I think I'll go eat some more imaginary mold now.

 

Washing/waxing the car.
Gardening but only for a couple hours at a time. Longer than that and my back starts to ache.

 

I love doing yard work, but no yard. I will do just about ANYTHING to get out of having to do laundry. I have seriously contemplated just having everything dry cleaned all the time, except I have no car and would have to essentially carry my laundry 4-5 blocks. That's just enough work to make it not feasible.

 

I keep my home as minimalistic as I see fit so for me its just busting out the swiffer sweeper and going over the tiles/wiping down the tables, chairs, etc. Not too much to clean considering I dont have any posters, knic knacks (sp?), etc. Just the bare essentials. Also mowing the lawn is nice...specifically enjoy doing so for the calorie expenditure...kill two birds with one stone.

 

Emptying the dishwasher, it's nice having a full cabinet of cleans glasses and plates/bowls.

 

I like doing most chores when the mood takes me....however this tends to be hardly ever and only when I have something like a huge essay due or something else urgent.

 

This.

Specific tasks that I (thoroughly) enjoy: cleaning my bike and shoveling snow, neither of which happen often enough.

 

I'll say cooking - I think the bonus is that I only do it 2 or 3 times a week, the benefit of having a not (paid) working wife. There is nothing better than whipping up some pancakes or French toast for breakfast, or the happiness that comes from watching your children wolf down whatever you've cooked (yes, sometimes that doesn't happen, but thankfully those times are few and far between).

 

I like cooking and washing dishes ok. I kind of like putting stuff together, like last night I put together a new tv stand for my new 40" tv, then I went to bed without watching it.

 

I must admit, anything that gives me fast noticeable results is a little more enjoyable. Like say, folding sheets and towels, washing pots and pans, or something simliar is more fun. Dusting (especially nic-nacs - of which I put most into cabinets so I don't have to dust those more than every couple years.) or vacuuming carpets... this is not as noticeable, as fast, or as much fun.

 

I really like shoveling snow, but never get the opportunity since I live in managed apartments.
