Big event in my life yesterday

[Goodheart]

I gave away my ironing board. Never again will I iron a shirt. I no longer care if my clothes are as wrinkled as my face.

1. What took you so long. The only things I've ironed is the silk and quilting cottons I used to dye to set the dyes ...

... shirts, and bed linen ... uh-uh.

2. I haven't seen my ironing board or iron since I retired. Theoretically, I may need to iron a shirt or pants

again some day, so I'll hang onto them.

3. That "wrinkled" look is in w/us seniors at the

Local pool and fitness center. We’re focused on more important things (like our health) than any kind of wrinkles. I gave away my mirror also 😊

4. I think I still have 3 ironing boards, couldn't tell you where they're at, ha ha heh. The iron, I have no idea where

it is at either. Most of the clothes we have are wrinkle-free, so that helps a little bit. But in reality, we don't really care if they're wrinkled or not.

5. Goodheart.....

sigh.....

I'm the weirdo who enjoys ironing but I don't use an ironing board. I put a towel down on my bed so I can sit while I iron. I find it relaxing and feel a sense of accomplishment when I'm done.

Having said that, I'm VERY happy for you!

6. Good for you!

I can’t stop laughing. Made my day.

8. Dear lord!

I haven't ironed in 35 years or more.

If they don't come out of the drier ready to wear, then they go off to Goodwill.

10. Your what?

11. I used my ironing board

for the first time in years in the last couple of weeks. I needed to shorten the hem of a skirt and then press it in.

12. I hear you! Good for you!!!

After a lifetime of not wearing TShirts, all I live in anymore is TShirts! (LOL) The messages on the TShirts are my statements to the world these days. One, in particular I like, says "I used to be People Person... and then People Ruined it."

Good for you! Some things are just not worth the effort anymore!

13. I have a small spray bottle that I fill with hot water. Spritz, hang or smooth with hand. No more wrinkles!

You can even spray while wearing and then smooth wrinkle with your hand. Great for traveling.

14. Was there a ceremony, viewing, relatives, flowers ?

15. I don't mind ironing, and would much rather iron than dust.

Dusting is so pointless - 2 hours later, it's back. I have a little sign that hangs on my closet door knob that says, "You may touch the dust, but please don't write in it."

I like the aroma that wafts up from whatever it is I'm ironing. I haven't much need for ironing now that we are both retired, but I don't mind it when the rare need arises.

I do have to put the ironing board away ASAP, or it will quickly become just one more horizontal surface on which to pile "stuff" that I'm too lazy to put away.

I do like my hand-held steamer.

16. You can put a thick towel on a table to iron
