Cleaning the house is one of the most monotonous thing there has to be. You can work all day and finish every piece of laundry in the house, but before the day is through you could easily do another load. Same with the dishes. you clean all of the dishes and by the end of the day and sometimes even by the end of the hour you have another sink full. I will say that Kimball does love helping me with the dishes (AKA pull them out of the dishwasher and play withthem). I actually don't mind cleaning, all of the time. When I finish the bathroom I feel so good that when my kid follows me in I will be assured he is not picking up as many germs. I do hate it when I just finish cleaning the bathroom and David comes home and shaves in the sink and doesn't clean all of the little hairs off the side.
Which house chore is your least favorite? I remember in one of my sign language classes we had to sign how often we cleaned something. I was pretty good on everything except dusting. I absolutely hate dusting. I will let it go far longer than I should. I don't know why I hate it so bad. My sister said to just get a swiffer and isn't so bad. Maybe I will have to try that.
Another thing about cleaning house that isn't as regular as it should be is getting rid of stuff. I am not a pack rat, but I am terrible at getting rid of old clothes. I always think to myself, "I will loose weight and fit into it again. Lets face it...no matter how much weight you loose your clothes never fit quite the same after having a baby or so I am told. When I wear out shoes I wear out shoe. When it is time to get rid of them it is time to throw them away and not give them away. I still have shoes from Jr high and high school. Dave is always on me about getting rid of stuff. This I find amusing since he is a much bigger pack rat than I. In fact when we went through his stuff in his parents basement he had a box that he kept, labeled Dave's crap. He was all in a rush about me getting rid of my stuff, but his stuff has much more sentimental value. He is so funny and somehow I still find him adorable. Does anyone else have these problems?

I hate cleaning bathrooms; but I hate dirty bathrooms more--so I clean mine regularly.
I hate mopping, emptying dishwashers, cleaning baseboards, dusting; I could go on.
I end up cleaning because I hate dirt and grime even more (well, I never do my baseboards....)
I actually hate doing the base boards too. Like you I hate dirt even more. I wonfer if people that have dirt floors even bother with dusting. Hmmmmmm....
