Most loved and hated chores

[yvi]

Okay, this may not strictly be on-topic...

Oh wait, I am the mod here. I can do this :)

The last entry on grocery shopping caused me to wonder: what are your most hated chores (and why), and what are the chores you actually like (and why)?

Vacuuming and washing dishes! I should be fine with them because I enjoy cleaning and these are two things I can do easily while listening to music blaring, *BUT* they both destroy my back after half an hour because of being bent over (especially doing dishes - I am too tall for most sinks and countertops). I'm trying to develop my core and back muscles more so that I'm not deadified by this kind of work, but right now these two chores are guaranteed to force me to mainline ibuprofen and lie down for a couple of hours after. I think it will be better once I move back into a small apartment with fewer dishes and less floor.

I like cleaning toilets and sinks oddly enough - gross stuff doesn't gross me like it should anymore. Laundry is okay if I'm not terrified of destroying my nice clothes. Outdoor yardwork is fun on a nice day. Window washing is therapeutic. I like the satisfaction of a completed task and a clean space, though I am a fan of the cosy clutter.
