Your Questions Answered


On Wednesday, The Spooky Whisk/Happy Whisk/Ivy asked these questions:

What is your least favorite household chore? And what is your favorite?

Well, I can definitely say I DO NOT have a favorite chore. I hate them all. Probably why they're called CHORES. Ha ha!

But you made me think. Out of the chores I do, or used to do, I'd say mowing the lawn was my least despised. I haven't mowed the lawn this year (we got a service which was pretty reasonable – better than paying the kids!), but I will most likely go back to mowing the lawn next year if I don't have a paying job by then. So whether it's my favorite or least despised, I don't mind that job so much. It's good exercise, too.

But then you probably wonder why we got a service if I didn't mind this chore so much. Good question! Well, when I was working, I really didn't have the time to do it. I wanted to write and writing time was rare. Not the case any longer!

I had a harder time figuring out my least favorite (or most despised) chore, though. There are so many to choose from. I guess I should pick the one I don't do so often, since that would be a good indicator of how much I hate doing it, but even that's a toss up between dusting and cleaning the shower. But since dusting is easier, I guess then my choice would be cleaning the shower. Why aren't they self-cleaning anyway? I get clean IN them, it would only make sense they would stay clean. But nooooo.

Those were the only questions I was handed on Wednesday, so I guess I can throw it back to you, dear reader. Which are your favorite and least favorite (or least despised and most despised) chores?

I will not be able to respond to any comments today as I will be in Columbus for a writers convention (Central Ohio Fiction Writers). It goes through Saturday evening. I'm looking forward to it. I have never been to this convention before. I expect it to be a lot of fun (and I expect to know a few more people there, too).

Hope your weekend is fantabulous!
