Natter 65: Speed Limit Enforced by Aircraft
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
It's almost cheaper for me to dry clean between the cost of the sheets and the cost of the dryer.
I can see that. I only have a few things that are supposed to be dry cleaned, and I try to remember to throw them in the dryer while I'm drying towels or something. If i had to schlep them to a laundromat or come up with quarters, the convenience would pretty much disappear. As it i I've got two dry-cleanable items sitting on top of the dryer because I forgot to do the magical thing during any of the 6 loads I did yesterday...
Seeing that clothes need ironing is apparently a blind spot of mine. They have to be really really wrinkled before I even notice, and even then I'll probably decide it doesn't matter that much. Dressing professionally is so far from being my strong suit.
I iron on a biannual, maybe quarterly basis. And most things marked dry clean only, truly required dry cleaning, I just wouldn't buy it. I like a simple laundry day.
We own an iron. I know we talked about buying an ironing board, but I don't think we have one. Mostly the iron is used for pulling the dent and divits out of guitar tops and wood floors. It would need some scrubbing before using , I think
I have stuff that's been sitting in a dry-cleaning pile since...probably before we moved.
I like to iron! Which is a good thing, as I like to wear little linen blouses in the summer.
I will not, however, be ironing my children's clothes when they are 27. In fact, my children will be doing laundry for me, as soon as they are tall enough to reach the buttons on the washer.

My mom's smiling down on you from heaven, flea.

Oh absoLUTEly! Reasonably large and healthy children should also be put to work taking out garbage and carrying groceries. There is no reason for parents to do those things.
And when they grow up they can do things like chose hardwood floors because they DESPISE vacuuming. Until then, however... get on it, punks.
That should be pretty soon, right, flea?
ION, Kate Winslet and Sam Mendes split up.
I was 10 or 12 when I learned to do laundry. Whenever I got picky about what I wore to school.
I have a lot of chores to do today. Doing them would we make me happier, but I can't seem to get started
As a kid I LOVED ironing. Mom loved having linen napkins and table clothes, so ironing them was my job. Both she and my grandma also carried hankies and I got to iron them too.
After mom passed away, I discovered that she still had quite a collection of hankies. I washed then and reminisced as I ironed them. Only time I've ironed anything since we moved.
