It's Just a Minute

There are lots of small things that I hate to do, and in reality, when I think about it, they only take a minute or two.  But I don't even want to waste that minute or two, and for some reason they drive me nuts.  This includes:

1. Brushing my teeth.  Yes, I do it like I'm supposed to (obviously), but I don't enjoy it.  Who wants to stand there swishing back and forth for two minutes?

2. Squeegeeing the shower door.  Now that we have a nice, lovely glass shower door in our brand-new bathroom, we need to wipe it down when we're done.  Blah.

3. Moving the car seat.  It's always when I need to go somewhere NOW that I discover the car seat is not in my car and I don't even want to spend one minute switching it over.

4. Cleaning out the coffee pot.  I don't make coffee too often, so when I do, once the pot is done it will sit on the counter for a few days.  Until I clean it out to make a new pot.  It's a vicious circle.

5. Packing the hubs's lunch.  This isn't just him, though.  When I was teaching, I hated making my lunch for the next day, and all it involved was throwing a yogurt, a spoon, an apple, and a few other snacks in the bag.  His lunch is the same way now.

Am I alone in this, or are there little things that drive you crazy in your day too?
