    Pet peeve is trying to decide which of these tiny little pieces is the right side and the wrong side. I should have been punished for buying that fabric.

    Cleaning out a smelly fridge is the daunting task facing me today. Heaven knows what I'll find. Could be someone I know that has crawled in there and died. I probably would not miss them as I am too focused on other stuff.

    I must be among the few that love house cleaning...maybe because I’m a little OCD. DH says why gets a house cleaner when I would clean before she came. LOL And, I love everything about quilting...

    I have too many small pieces of leftovers-scraps- that I honestly think I will never use and I tell my self to throw them out! Than I cut some more and they are so nice I just cant waste them! I guess I need to find a new home for them!

    I personally enjoy dusting. If you wait long enough its like new tables when that wood shine comes through again!
    I guess I don’t currently hate anything but I sure dont enjoy any of it! It is never ending!!!!
    I do have a major problem with clutter in general - you lay one thing on the counters and next thing you know you can barely see them! I need to go all Marie Kondo on this place!

    Meal planning, housecleaning and cooking are the least favorite things for me. It would be nice to retire from them, too. I stopped baking a long time ago, so this is not a problem . I love all aspects of quilting!

    I hate squaring up, too. It's tedious and time consuming and also I'm never sure I'm doing it right. I also hate the sandwiching, partly due to lack of adequate surface/space.

    As for household chores, I hate vacuuming most of all. I think it's the noise of the vacuum and maneuvering it around furniture that I object to. But I agree: dusting is no day in the park either!

    Your "never ending" comment reminds me of a meme I saw on Facebook: A character saying "I dusted once. It came back. Not falling for that again."

    I think I also dislike layering the most as it always gives me a terrible backache. For housework, I think vacuuming is what I hate the most. I'm not fond of dusting so I just don't do it. LOL The dust is a protective layer for the wood, plus it shows you where something goes if it is moved by someone or something (say cats here). LOL
