Mine is washing dishes.

If left to my own devices, I will let dishes collect for a week in my kitchen sink.

Fortunately, I have a dishwasher. And a wife, but she doesn't enjoy doing dishes either, but at least it's a shared misery.

two years ago we dug up the front lawn and replaced it with mulch, moss, and succulents. drainage is MUCH better, bees and hummingbirds live in the bushes next to the house, and it's so much nicer.

worth considering if your HOA won't bitch.

Yup, I am considering that and starting to budget for it. If the HOA is a bitch about it, I’ll do it in the backyard and cut my total mow time by at least 40%. It will also reduce my water bill.
