I don’t think all household chores are boring. But some really are. Every day after breakfast I have to clean the table. On weekends, I have to clean the bathroom and do the dishes after dinner.

But mom just checks my room every day and tells me to clean up “this mess”. Of course I promise her each time that I will clean it up—when I have the time.
My brother, Mark, doesn’t have to do very much at home. Sometimes, he helps Dad wash the car and water the plants. Those are not boring chores at all.
