Post Favorite 'Home Maintenence' activity

I don't know what exactly to call these things we do around the house, but often we complain about vaccumming, dusting, sweeping, mowing the lawn, weeding, etc. Lets talk about our favorite things to do around the house;

Mine are moving the lawn, folding laundry and vaccumming. I also love rearranging the furniture! (my spell check isn't working, sorry!) What are yours?

I love doing laundry. I actually like to clean, don't get around to it much, but I like it. I like to dust, vacuum. Unfortunately, I have turned into my Mother's Daughter.

I prefer to work outside. I love planting and weeding my flower beds.

The one and only thing I like to do around the house is make up the bed. I hate doing everything else, unfortunately.

May favorite thing to do is lay my lazy butt on the couch and watch a good movie! My motto on housework is, "My house was clean yesterday. Sorry you missed it!!"

Seriously, on house work, I don't like any of it - but somebody's gotta do it so I "tolerate" it all - dusting, vacuuming, sweeping, mopping, etc.

I like sweeping, mopping, and vacuuming. I don't mind dusting either. The one thing that I really hate is washing dishes! I haven't had a dishwasher in two years! When I move in January, that's gonna be on the top of my list for a place to rent, well maybe after allowing dogs.

You move your lawn?? Where do you put it? LMAO!!

My favorite I guess is...hmmm. I don't know? I don't think I really care for any of it. Just do it because it has to be done.

I don't have a passion for cleaning, it's always the same LOL...

Only thing i do like it to play with lots of water, so if i clean the windows on the outside, i have water splashing everywhere.
I also like to use the garden hose and broom.

I don't like to do any of it unless I'm in the mood. When I am in the mood, I like to have the house to myself and clean from top to bottom. I love it when everything shines.

It this counts as home maintenance, I would rather try making or remaking something in my house. I do like woodworking and have made shelves and a few other odds and ends.
