Agreed - but I think I know the source of my love for chores and it stems from, while I love him dearly and appreciate how he raised me, a cheap dad growing up who wouldn't be caught dead paying for someone else to do something around the house for him. I couldn't imagine paying someone money to come mow my lawn or clean my windows, etc. I do really enjoy the feeling of completing something on the to-do list as well, so that probably helps.
