A wrinkled time
I haven't ironed anything in a while. My usual habit was to do the wash on Monday, and iron on Tuesday evening and watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Then Buffy was cancelled and it all fell apart. A year ago buffy was re-run everyday, twice a day, but at 10 and 11 am! So no chance of me seeing it then. But for a few short short months, the little boy went to preschool two mornings a week, for three hours. And Buffy and I were re-united. I ironed happily along as the scooby gang faced legions of undead baddies. So satisfying!
These days the ironing is haphazard. For some reason I can't get the iron to behave in the way I thought it was supposed to behave. It goes to sleep and I can't wake it up except by unplugging it and re-starting it. it makes me annoyed that my iron acts like my computer, but that's what you get. I bought it. I gotta live with it. But it is so completely better than the old one which was cruddy and dirty all the time because it needed distilled water and I never gave it any. couldn't be bothered. Then I got white crud all over the clothes. Now what do I iron? All the husbands' clothes. And some of the little boy's clothes. I also like to have the napkins ironed too. They get so wrinkly that it's difficult to fold them and put them down for the silverware. But i can put regular old water in it, and i love that. i love my iron.
What i really can't stand is when people take two words that begin with alike sounds, say like 'college' and 'kids' and then change one of them so that they both start with the same letter. I was at an educational site and found a link for 'kids kollege'
now why in the world should i click on that? they can't even spell!
