It keeps on growing,
My huge pile of ironing
Is neverending…
As if I didn’t have enough on with sleepovers and sick kids, and running on empty…
There was a huge pile of ironing staring at me!
So armed with water to refill the iron, and The X-Factor final to keep me company I managed to tackle it!
Phew!
So, theoretically, tomorrow, I just have an early run to take the boys to a football match, and mend my daughter, not forgetting to bake some cookies … I might be able to squeeze a nap in too!
😯:?:)
But I Smile Anyway...

I make myself iron five pieces, take a break, do five more till I am done. Ironing is the worst. I probably have eight or ten pieces right now. Ugh!

My number one chore to put off. I finish the wash on Monday and I don’t iron until Thursday. I usually put on a movie to keep me company!

‘I’m going to mend my daughter’ Wow, is that surgical, psychological or of the stitchery sort!? Personally I loathe ironing and will undertake any numbers of household chores to get out of it. Brave you

Can I just say, the mending isn’t going well…
By mending, I meant trying lots of ‘nuskey’ or old indian remedies to help her, but shes still being sick, bless her. Shes hungry, but can’t keep anything down… And her tummy hurts.. Whether its from hunger, or spasms, I don’t know, poor baby 😢

Thank you Geoffles! We managed 4 hours, no sick, touchwood, and tiger bread with Jam was eaten successfully! So fingers crossed no more sickiness! Now Hubby has relieved me for a little nap, while he keeps the kids occupied!
Then I’ll be biscuit baking!!! I’m sure a post will follow!!

I usually have to dust my iron before using it. ☺ Very little since most offices in the U.S. went to business-casual wear. I can remember it as my first chore as a kid. We took cotton items that had been chilling in the refrigerator, sprayed them with a mist of water, then went for it. We even did bed linens, underwear, etc. Ahhh…the memories.
