What stupid thing that takes 5 minutes do you hate to do?

I used to do that until I read what a joke recycling is. So that pb caked sucker goes right in the trash.

Just reading these replies is reminding me of a bunch of stuff I need to do but don't want to. Mine include:

- Timesheet
- Flossing
- Folding and putting away clean clothes
- Chopping vegetables, plus any kind of weekend food prep and planning
- Filing paperwork
- Getting online every week to check that we are signed up for the right aftercare days
- Handwashing bathing suits (hand washing anything)
- Putting sunscreen on my kid
- Trimming and shaping my nails

There are others, I've probably just got a mental block. If I had a personal assistant, they would just do all this stuff all the time. There are lots of admin tasks I actually like, and I don't mind grocery shopping, most childcare tasks, and most cleaning activities. But there is something about this stuff that just makes me avoid it as long as I can and then get frustrated with myself that I've put it off. It's always hanging over my head.

Washing my face.
I don’t know why but I just can’t do it. I’ll get in the shower and do the whole thing including washing my face before I’ll do it at the sink.

Emptying dishwasher.

Cat box, laundry, moping the kitchen while the cats running in and out, and flossing. I learned to delegate the cat box and mopping to my daughter for cash.

Ugh. So many things….

Pooping. The entire concept is just gross and weird to me.
