What things in your life would you rather pay someone to do, than do yourself? Can be totally normal (oil change, wash dishes or over the top like take your husband clothes shopping.) And go!

I would rather pay someone else to clean my house. I hate hate hate to clean

We're pretty DIY, but I would rather pay someone to make grass grow in our backyard than figure it out myself.

As far as DIY stuff, I like doing it ourselves and I dont think I would actually ever pay someone to do it for me.  And I think my mom would disown me if I hired someone to clean my house although aside from the guilt I would love it. 

I would much prefer to pay someone to bathe my dogs -- they make a disaster area out of the bathroom and I hate the smell of wet dog -- and clip their toenails.  We have to with one anyway - he clawed the helll out of me the one time I was able to get about 3 nails clipped.  The vet sedates him.

Anything kitchen related, from grocery shopping to meal prep to cleaning. I hate the kitchen. Probably because it's so flippin' small. And I'm not a very good cook (I get injured easily).

Trim my cats claws. She totally freaks out and it's not a fun experience for anyone involved. Our other cat whines but doesn't make a huge deal out of it but Roxie flips out.

Laundry, especially the folding/putting it away part. And dishes. I like cooking but hate the clean up!

I really like to cook when I have the time and creative juices flowing for it. But I think having to cook out of necessity kind of sucks. So...I would rather pay someone to prepare delicious, healthy meals for us~at my beck and call.

clean house.. by the time i get home from work i just want to eat, relax with hubby, and chill.. and by the weekends we are always running so it doesnt get done as often as i would like or as thoroughly as i would like!

Clean house. But DH won't let me hire a maid. I'd go without a lot of luxuries in life to afford one!

do anything domestic related.

Stain a fence.  We finally finished our fence after 3 weekends worth of work.  Putting it up wasn't bad, but staining 400 pickets individually so they would be sealed was a nightmare.  My legs hurt so bad from all the squats I did while painting, never again.

My theory is to never pay someone to do something you can do yourself. I always regret spending the money when I could have just sucked it up and done whatever it was myself.

On that note, I would definitely pay someone to mow the lawn. I did it completely on my own last night and it took 3 hours. We live on 3/4 an acre and our house is situation on a hill. We have to get a push mower or else we risk flipping a rider on the hill. It's a huge project. Hubby was thrilled when we got home though. His bday is this weekend so the last thing he wanted to do was mow a lawn.

Dishes. I love to cook but I HATE doing dishes.

Also, cleaning the cat litter. 

(Though I would probably never actually pay someone to do them, it would be nice!)

Clean the bathroom.

There are so many!!

I would rather pay someone else to:

-deep clean the house (I am DYING for a cleaning lady- and will definitely get one the moment I have a baby if not before)

-do the laundry, including folding it and putting it away

-plan meals, grocery shop & clean up (I can handle the cooking)

-run my errands (dry cleaning, etc.)

Clean the house, definitely. We have a cleaning lady once a month and it's not enough.

Clean the house...I hate cleaning. Also I'd like someone to shop for me. I feel like I always buy the same things, so a new perspective would be nice.
