This week's 10 on Tuesday...
***10 Things You Hate Doing***
1. dusting (been over this one before!)
2. going to the dentist
3. driving (especially in cities or in areas totally unfamiliar to me)
4. cleaning the shower
5. arguing
6. answering the phone
7. rushing
8. remaking the beds after washing the bedding
9. swimming
10. doing nothing (can't stand the feeling that I'm not accomplishing something)
I just realized how thankful I should be. I had a really hard time coming up with this list. I thought of plenty of things I don't particularly love to do, but it was tough coming up with things I truly hate. So I guess that makes me lucky.

Sometimes it might be important to me, I suppose...but even that's not guaranteed.

we are in agreement on all but *one* item on your whole list! #10. i have great appreciation for the benefits of sometimes doing nothing. just watching tv. just reading. just surfing the net. everyone needs downtime, doing nothing with "purpose" to recharge. =)
Dawn-I know you're absolutely right about that one...I just can't generally follow through! Even as I blog, I'm running around doing 100 other things. Hopeless.
Oooh, forgot about going to the dentist!! I LOATHE going mainly because I hate people touching my face and looking up my nose. lol
And cleaning house. Geez, how could I forget that one? In fact, I just finished cleaning the shower, bleh. But at least I don't let it get so bad we have to wear swim shoes to take a shower (hey! Don't laugh! I KNEW someone like that!!)
In fact, I would love to hire a maid but I can't stand the thought of her touching our stuff. lol
Thanks for stopping by! *wave*

I agree with you on # 6 - answering the phone. Especially when most are from Troll Free Numbers or people seling something - urgh!
I hate arguing too, although every now and then I think arguing is good thing, if it has it merit LOL
Thanks for visiting my blog! Happy Ten on Tuesday to you and I hope you have great day! :)
I'm with you on #8. I'd prefer to have us all sleeping on very dirty sheets for extended periods of time.
Hi Debi, thanks for stopping by my blog. I should've added going to the dentist!!! LOL. Great list.
I with you on just about all of them. I will say I just LOVE talking on the phone with friends :)
I practially live at my dentist office. The part that bothers me the most (besides paying for it!) is the waiting! I hate to wait!
take care,
Dawn
