402 Entries for “chores”

  1. life is a chore, everything seems to be an incredible task, and love fuels all things, it brings joy and freedom to everyone. But it is work, life is a chore of love. I love some things but I wonder how long 60 seconds can really be.

  2. You made it out to be a fucking chore. I made last night seem like it was a chore and you said that stupid Katy Perry song was my song. The one where she’s talking about a hypnotic person and it made me feel seductive and made me miss you.

  3. i know i have so many chores to do. i know you told me more than twice to do them… but there is just one problem can’t you see?
    i get so very distracted, by every little thing.
    A flash, a sparkle, a sprinkle a splash!
    it all catches my attention and makes me smile.

  4. how many times are you allowed to contemplate the same issue without losing your voice. Chores are unspoken requirements of American adults due to our obsession with cleanliness, but I don’t buy into it. Am I too serious? What is wrong with me?

  5. Her daily chores were constant reminders of her sin. Gathering firewood to chop to burn to be able to keep warm to stay alive. It is punishment.

  6. My life’s chores are all inside of me.I dig, I rake, I clean, I fix, I mend. But most of all I love.

  7. When we were little, my baby sister always had the timeliest stomach aches. Usually about the time we were all supposed to be doing our chores. As the oldest, it was my job to pick up the slack. But once we were finished? They magically melted away…
    Not that I’m bitter.

  8. blah. saturday morning and my dad walking around the house, yard, and garage looking for what needs to be done. that means fixed. the roof, the floor, the yard, the garage – always something that needed to be done to his 50 year old eyes that my 12 year old eyes could never see. now i am 50 and there is a lot to be done around here.

  9. how many times can you write about the same story. how many times can you complete the same task. chores, chores, chores. these tasks go uncompleted, if you contemplate the meaning of life

  13. Chores aren’t something very fun but they have to be done if you don’t they will pile up and you will regret looking back and seeing that there is so much done that you wished that you could have done. Don’t regret having work DO it and make sure it is done well because it is only a little chore.

  14. I got caught up in chores and work and driving. Real life events. And I didn’t have time to fantasize about a better, imaginary life. That sad reality, coupled with dealing in adult matters, depressed me greatly. Daydreaming had always been my unofficial, secret job. But real life always got in the way.

  15. Chores were always the worst growing up. My dad’s rule was that the entire house had to be cleaned FRIDAYS after school before I could go anywhere. What kindof bastartd makes a highschool girl, do chores Friday afternoons? He would never consider allowing them to be done over the weekend or during the week. Freaking power-tripping tyrant.

  16. i like to do chores when im bored. no thats not true, chores are a pain. i like the idea of me liking to do them but i really dont. chores reminds me of the word procrastination, but chores can be fun through co-operation. are chores similar to errands?

  17. I hate the feelings i get in the mornings. The refreshing feeling of knowing you’re alive quickly killed by the realization of early day chores. Yes I hate it, because suddenly i am reminded of my age and status in the household.

  18. I hate chores. I find them dumb. Yes, I see the point in doing them, but I just hate them. Yuck. Expecially doing the dishes. That is the worst. I hate reaching into the murky, disgusting water to find the spoons, forks, knives, etc. Just plain yuck. I want/ need a maid.
    So bad.

  19. blech! i have a bunch to do every week! vacuming dusting! blech!
    not a fan! :P

  20. Never knowing just what chore she would be given next, cinderella dawdled as much as she dared feeding chickens and mucking out the horse stalls. This was her life, and her existence. It is what it is.

  21. I’d really rather not clean up someone else’s mess. I’m tired of people not taking responsibility for their own actions. I’m tired of people using “asking favours” as a way to dominate or indulge in power-play. I’m not your goddamn slave. No wonder you’re fat.

  22. Get up. Listen to some music. Check facebook. Laugh at twitter. Find yourself amazed by something you see on tumblr or stumbleupon. Chat.

  23. Chores are horrible. I hate them because it requires work. I don’t like to do work because I am incredibly lazy. Lazy doesn’t go well with chores.

  24. Papa would also take us with him to do chores. We waited until he pulled up to the first pen of steers to make sure they had enough hay. Then we’d jump into the bed of the pickup and wait to ride into the pasture, no matter how cold it was. He’d fill all the troughs with feed and then drive around the pasture, just to make sure there weren’t any stragglers or injured ones. We loved feeling the air hit our face as he drove; I think he really did it for us.

  26. Chores are mundane and irritating sometimes but they give me time to think. I like to blare out upbeat music and dance around as I do chores. After I’m finished, I feel like I accomplished something and it makes me feel good.

  27. Life is one big pile of steaming chores. Kids and a workaholic husband make that way. I’m the one that’s home, I’m the one who cleans of the piles. Mmm, steamy. Dishes, laundry, general clean up.

    What I would give for a maid. Haha! Maybe someday.

  28. Daily. That is my life. Kids and a husband make it that way. I’m at home, and my kids are young . . . laundry, dishes and daily cleaning. Chores, its my life.

    I would give a lot of money to have someone do it for me . . . money that I don’t really have right now. Maybe someday in the future.

  29. Revise necessity and find creative ways to outsource them – don’t let them control your life.

  30. chores are lame. but i never have to do them so that’s cool. i dont want to grow up and have to do that, fuck that noise. i want moneys though. that’d be grand. and i want to learn how to lucid dream, that’d be intriguing. i wonder what everyone else writes on these things. probably bullshit, but mines not much better so i shouldn’t complain.

  31. Chores are a necessary evil. I don’t really like to do them. They are more fun while listening to music. I sometimes dance around with the vacuum. Or, sing really loud.

  32. the chores you do everyday. you get good at. sponging. mopping. feeding the cat. the dog. the raccoon. your hands in rubber gloves. smell of cleaner. habit of clean. of organizing. one disorganized article at a time. one. at. a time. chores. chores. chores. chores. go do it. no you will not be paid. you do this for your keep. keep doing it.

  33. i hate chores. it means i have to do what my parents tell me. like doing dishes. i hate washing plates and forks full of food. they disgust me. why cant anyone else do it? i hate doing chores all the time. thats why we have a maid in the house, to do them for me. i dont need to be cleaning up anyone elses shit, i dont even do it for myself. im never buying china in my life.

  36. SO, you are having me write about chores again. I guess they are a necessity. Nobody wants to live in a dirty house. They go faster with an ipod in your ears. Sometimes I dance while doing chores. It makes it go faster.

  37. god i hate doing chores. even if they’re not incredibly difficult i still never want to get up and do them. it seriously is like the most annoiying thing being interupted in the middle of doing something completely mindless to be asked to do a simple chore. but when i dont do a simple thing like a chore the consequences are endless.

    by Sara on 07.08.2011
  38. I have many chores I have to do. My day starts with the dog barking at me to feed him..he just keeps barking and barking. Some chores I ignore until it gets really terrible. I don’t like to clean the garage. it’s hot and stuffy.

  39. My sisters always seemed to disappear at chore time when we were young, especially when it was time for dishes! I would call for Linda to come and she would call back, “I am in the bathroom!” Yeah right!

  40. I don’t even want to talk about chores.
