((((SCARS))))

I guess you don't really want to iron the towels? Will he be upset if you don't?

Oooh Scars; I wouldn't iron towels. Doesn't the heat make all those soft fluffy fibres all hard and scratchy!! Not good against my delicate skin

Does he iron socks and underwear as well? If he does; I'll bring mine round for him to do

oh yes he irons his shreddies!!!!

I just don't get why I suddenly decide to iron the towels, like I owe him something, if I used bad language I would go "WTF"!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, me too. I dont think I have known anyone to iron towels. That is way too far. Heard of people ironing their underwear and that is crazy IMO.

Scarzy - I don't think I could do it. if you wanted to impress him, wanted something from him, wanted new jewellery, favours whatever - from him - then yeah go that extra mile, but nah I don't think I could iron his towels - esp given your living situation.

I have a smile on my face about this, imagining you standing at the ironing board aimlessly ironing his towels and thinking WTF???????

Somedays.

I feel lame. I don't iron...anything. :P I mean, if H or I had something fancy that wrinkled up much, I would (and have, and so has H, and he's actually better at it).

I don't think it's stupid (a good thing to be aware of and explore), but certainly, if you don't feel they need to be ironed, then I would forgo it in the future.

My tumble dyer irons all my clothes

I just thought. I iron tea towels but not towels.
The dishes get crinkle free but not my bum!!
Is that another WTF!! moment I wonder

Thanks folks. Had to laugh at you SD for smiling at me having a WTF moment!!!

You should always look after your gluteus maximus AV !!!

Ok confession time - I iron everything apart from socks and bras It doesn't feel the same if I don't! Starfishy buries her head in the sand waiting for the replies ....ooo and ironing towels makes them all fluffy IMHO...

Sorry cat, really tied up this weekend otherwise would love to help!!

I like the sound of ironing... khuuuuuu shhhhhhooo *faint gurgle* khuuuuuu khuu khuu khuu shhh khuu shhh (this is me ironing a corner) shhhhhhooo. At least that's the sound mine makes. And ksh ksh ksh ksh as I spray whatever you spray when you iron

Really Cat!!

Mine's more like 'b****y shirt!!' or 'where did that crease come from?' or 'don't you dare slide off the ironing board again!!'

I am glad I could throw a little light heartedness into the midst!!!

I will discuss my WFT moment with my CPN later and with my counsellor on Friday and whoever else might listen!!!!!

Well the CPN broke it down to, something like my personality has been broken into pieces, and now I seek any attention, good or bad, just trying to appease him, apparently when we are really unhappy we can change our behaviours and that it the critical point when things have to change. Not really sure I got it?

Hmm I'd worry more about behaviours I'd changed when I was really unhappy, would go along with nes I'd thought through when I feel more even - is that how you feel? Well scarsie, I say iron if you want to and don't if you don't want to ....or send it to me Anon still has my laundry fairies I believe but I don't mind a bit of ironing....

Aww, if I had them still, sorry, I didn't know. You can have them back! My H has told me (and bragged to others) that our new rental has a ghost maid in it who does all that sort of thing, because he leaves things a mess and they magically get cleaned when he's not looking.

I also use the dryer as my preferred "ironing" method. I do agree about the lovely sounds the iron makes, though. Soothing. My grandma left an iron down on the floor when I was a kid and it burned my leg so bad I had a triangular scar on my calf into my 20s, so even though I'm not scared of irons (like I can use them no problem), I get this kind of fear I'm going to leave it around and burn somebody or something.

Gosh, I wish I really did have a ghost maid or laundry fairies or dish gnomes or something. We have a friend coming to stay, Boo and my nephews are thrashing the house, and I could really use some supernatural help around here.

Nony your need is greater, just DH and me so no where near the washing you have
