Working out & Vacuuming.

There is something about both that relaxes my mind and allows me to think clearly. hmmm, sounds pretty strange.

I am not sure if this is considered a chore but I love to paint.I mean walls. Paul HATES to do this but I LOVE it. I change the colors in my house every couple of years or so. Last year we even painted the entire outside of my house. Paul did not like that though because we had to rent scaffolding and I made him do the roof trim because I hate heights. I have a freind who works in a paint store so I get all my paint for like $3.00 a gallon(all the store mistakes)

I like to fold laundry. I like to fold the clothes all pretty like they do in the stores. I fold laundry on my bed. This forces me to make my bed in the morning, so I have a nice neat place for all the folded laundry, and it forces me to put the laundry away at the end of the day so I can go to bed!

I think some people think cooking is a chore but I love to cook. And sadly, I would rather cook a great meal here at home than go out to dinner any day. I always know what I'll be getting. No surprises! My hubby thinks that sometimes going out makes it easier on me, but one thing I don't mind doing is cooking!
And I really don't mind cleaning either. One thing though is that when I start something, I like to finish it then and there. Sometimes it is hard with 3 kids running around.

Hmmm....this is a tricky one.

Will all of you come chip in at MY house? LOL

I guess for me it is assembling things??? i.e. I truly enjoyed putting together the three bookshelves and desk in our study & the bookcase that the kids' toys are on & the shelving we have in the basement for dry goods, etc.

It's not really a chore but most people hate it...going to the dentist. I love it! Having nice clean and polished teeth is awesome

Lisa, we are on the same page alot lately. As I was reading these answers, I was thinking what a great team of people to have come to my house. In case you all did not get it from a post along time ago...my favorite chore is NOTHING....okay, wait, maybe cleaning the pool. I do like doing that, skimming the leaves out of the pool. That is about it. I am SOOO lazy...I need a maid.

I don't mind putting away the kids laundry. I like folding everything nice and neat and looking at all the cute clothes they both have.

I like to paint walls and I also like to cut grass and sometimes I even like to shovel snow, for a short time and not too often.

Taking stuff to the Goodwill or throwing things away!!! I LOVE getting rid of STUFF we aren't every going to use!

There are many times though that DH will say to me, "Ken-where's the ________? Please don't tell me you threw it away!!" It gets me in trouble, but I LOVE IT!!!

Edited to say: I have 2 garbage bags ready to go today!!
