Today's parable is:

DO NOT IRON! LIVE!
Life isn't smooth and simple - why should you clothes be?

LOL Tat -

I love it! You're right, of course, life is certainly not smooth or simple in my household, but it is lively! I'm lucky if I can squeeze the basic necessities into my schedule...

Unfortunately, when they are not doing schoolwork or playing soccer or video games, my sons are too busy cutting the grass and vacuuming the floors to have time to iron. I have to keep them focused on the important things, like picking up the laundry in the first place so I can at least get it washed... I don't mind a few wrinkles, but smelly boy-clothes - ugh!

I do iron clothes for special occasions, but if they ever display an interest in their clothes being ironed regularly I will be happy to teach them to do it!

Diane
