Don’t mind doing laundry, changing sheets or watering my plants.

Get yourself a robot mop vacuum. Saves you so much time and energy.

I would have immediately answered this emptying the dishwasher, but things have changed. Bought a brand new dishwasher in December, broken out of the box but didn't know it. Delay in getting it fixed. Finally fixed. Worked for 42 days. Yes, I counted. Broke again, different issue, some error code never seen anywhere before and had to actually turn the breaker off to stop it. Delay in getting tech out. Tech finally comes out, can't fix it, has to order a part. Part never comes, they declare it unfixable but will only partially refund our money (Samsung sucks in this regard). Went back to where we bought it (Lowes) and after a battle they agreed to replace it, but now there aren't any. So we wait. Finally after over 2 and a half months, we finally got a dishwasher again. I will NEVER complain about emptying that sucker ever again.....

But I digress. Badly. Sorry. I literally hate putting sheets on the bed.

Wash my hair

Keep some really good quality hand lotion in the car. Then put it on when you are at a stop light. You won’t need to wash it off at least until your destination and it should have soaked in more or less by the time the light turns green (just don’t over apply).

Your palms only need lotion at night when you go to bed. Any other time, you should be applying a smaller amount of lotion to the back of a hand and then rubbing the backs of your hands together. There’s no reason to have greasy palms.

Cleaning the bathroom sink

Pump gas

Cleaning the microwave. I HATE seeing food splatter in a microwave (so gross), but I also hate cleaning it. It's just an awkward thing to do, no matter where it is (over the range or in a lower cabinet or even a countertop one).

I could have written this. I have serious old lady hands and hate putting on hand lotion.

If my husband asks me if I checked the mail, I literally respond “that’s not my job”. He asks at least once a week. He knows the answer, and he finds it amusing because it’s the one task I refuse to do. I’d rather scrub the toilet or clean the kitty litter box.

Scrubbing the toilet is so easy and satisfying! I don’t know how long ago I discovered this, but it’s great leverage. DH and the kids will trade me crazy things to not scrub a toilet. My kids would rather dust 3 entire bedrooms than scrub 3 toilets. Sold!

Putting anything away: Laundry. Items from a bag or suitcase. Groceries. Last season’s clothes. All the ingredients from my recipe. The clean dishes. It’s the same annoyance in different forms.

=Same here, that's immediately came to mind when I read the question.

YES this is me. I'm fine folding. Why is the final step of putting folded clothing into drawers so onerous?!
