More About Ironing

Pin It
Those of you that were so kind as to respond about my ironing...

Well, years ago, I had an ironing job. It was for my aunt. She paid me 15 cents for each item I ironed. I got pretty good at it, turning out what she allowed me to iron - flannel shirts mostly. It took a lot of shirts to make a dollar though. You can tell how long ago this was...

I did get it done (except for two things that aren't my favorite things anyway), but, there will always be more, and, as soon as I do more laundry, there it is. I could do a few at a time, but I need to set up the ironing board in the kitchen and it takes up space. And, it aggravates an old injury... enough whining, have to go vacuum...

  2. Another idea to help the ironing go quickly, set up your computer (if you have a lap top) or a monitor, and watch videos of messages, or old camp specials, etc. That's what I like to do. Or, I get audio books from the library (which you can down load off your computer from some libraries) and I listen to one. It makes the work go a little faster.
