To iron or not to iron - that is the question

Marianne72

I used to iron far more when I was younger. I sometimes feel guilty because I rarely iron bedclothes - I don't know why as I'm the only one in the house! I usually iron tops and trousers but not household linens. A friend used to iron her underwear and even shoe laces! What do you think? Is it lazy not to, or is it foolish to worry about something so trivial? Does this represent dignity or wasting valuable life-time?

  • If you have a tumble dryer and space to hang things while they dry, there is little or no need to iron anything. We threw out our ironing board months ago, as it always got in the way of opening the 'cupboard under the stairs'. We bought a small folding replacement that sits on a table-top, just for weddings and the like, which might require a little ironing.
