    I am happy to have dirty dishes in my sink. It means we had a good meal. I load them and DH puts them away.

    I dislike filling bobbins which is, of course, a very easy job, but usually it means I have to rethread the machine and that takes time, especially if if it's a time when I have trouble threading the needle. Housework: I dislike folding clothes.

    I hate to vacuum. Glad our house is small so there’s not a lot of it.

    I also do not like to dust; however, I do it every Monday morning because I schedule it-otherwise it would join the 'things to do tomorrow' list. I cannot tolerate dishes in the sink or on the counter top. After all, it is only eight inches to inside the dishwasher. My favorite home management task is laundry. I like all of the aspects and even like to mend when necessary. I do like to iron.

    I'm guilty of never folding laundry, it's the chore I always put off until it piles up. I tried last week to fold everything, but received so much "help" from my two year old it was barely worth it!

    I hate cleaning the kitchen. My husband is a wonderful cook but uses everything in the kitchen to prepare a meal. Because he cooks I feel better cleaning up, that is, until it's time. That's when I get out my audiobook and clean forever! (it seems)

    I agree with the rotary blade changing. Iceblossom mentioned the "tick" on the rotary blade where one thread doesn't get cut. How does that happen? Ideas? It happens here, too, and since the blade is a circle, how does just one little spot on it not cut when the rest of the blade still works fine? It drives me nuts...I keep thinking the "tick" will go away, but no, it doesn't.

    Nicking the edge of the ruler. Cutting over a pin.
