If for one week somebody came in and did a chore for you what would it be?

Mine would be somebody to put ALL the clean laundry away. It's neverending.

Washing and changing all the beds.
It's one of the chores both me and DH hate - re making the bed, usually 5 minutes before bedtime as we have put it off so long. Or DD's bed as it is a top bunk and a pain to do.

Hoovering the whole house. But not just for once. I'd like them to continue to come back once a week/fortnight/month and hoover.

Or cleaning every window inside and out.Smile

Id love someone to do the laundry as well. My main problem is putting it away Sad

xigris · 22/06/2013 12:44

Actually I'd just like a house keeper Grin

Either clean the bathrooms or all the laundry including ironing it and putting it away.

Menu plan, prepare all the meals & clear them up. Using something like the Ottolenghi recipe books.

amazingmumof6 · 22/06/2013 12:51

I don't care. just be quiet and let me sleep

knittedslippersx3 · 22/06/2013 12:51

Clean the shower

RoooneyMara · 22/06/2013 12:54

I love putting away the clean stuff.

If I had someone to help I'd ask them to hold the baby while I did stuff myself.

Feeding DS1. He's 3. Not fussy. But just won't feed himself. It's driving me crazy. 3 fucking years of feeding him.

PipkinsPal · 22/06/2013 13:00

Hoovering, mop the kitchen floor and clean the windows inside and out.

Wolfcub · 22/06/2013 13:01

ironing or endless dusting

Locketjuice · 22/06/2013 13:01

Put all the clothes away Smile

FiftyshadesofYoni · 22/06/2013 13:03

Deep clean my oven please

Lavenderloves · 22/06/2013 13:04

Bonzo, you need to starve him out cheeky monkey.

Floors, all 3000 square foot of them, never ending job.

Lavenderloves · 22/06/2013 13:05

Oh god oven i change my mind, its in need of a good clean.

Mintyy · 22/06/2013 13:09

Clean the bathroom. Luckily, I have a wonderful person who does this and I always feel so grateful.

HoobleDooble · 22/06/2013 13:11

Just generally declutter and reorganise me!

namechangea · 22/06/2013 21:57

Laundry is obviously a big issue in most houses not just mine. DH seems to create as much washing as Dd1 and DD2Hmm I of course create very little ahem

ironing if someone invented a machine with a big hole in the top that you throw a buddle of clothes in then they came out ironed and folded they be a millionaire

loveliesbleeding1 · 23/06/2013 20:05

Sounds silly but I would have someone come and peel potatoes I cannot stand doing it, soooo boring

TheOriginalNutcracker · 23/06/2013 20:08

Put the bin bags out. I hate doing it

OneLaundryBaskettoRuleThemAll · 26/06/2013 00:08

Clean the oven.

Startail · 26/06/2013 00:12

What is it with bathrooms, I wave a cloth at ours once in a blue moon and throw cleaner down the loo now and then.

It's the least troublesome room in the house.

Now if someone wants to clean my kitchen and mob the floor....
