I'll pop a DVD on or choose a moment when there's some good Tv, girls on the sofa and I will tackle my huge pile. I don't iron every day but save it all up for one film<br />Bliss but I do lack time to do everything else, I'm always stealing minutes form one task to complete another I have become the master of multi tasking :)<br />gotta dash there's some washing up that needs doing ;)Mari's Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07266275978240424061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5793116735725005642.post-13729630656327555822012-05-26T23:51:05.462+01:002012-05-26T23:51:05.462+01:00In my case I refuse to since I got very badly burn...In my case I refuse to since I got very badly burnt with an iron once, I'm clumsy.

I work full time from home and have no childcare so when we moved a month and a half ago and suddenly had space for a dishwasher I jumped at the chance and it has saved me so much time, and probably water, already. We also now have cleaners helping 2-3 hours a week, what they do in that time takes me all week with T on tow and I make up for the money having more time so less jobs get turned down. I also get more fun instead of stressed out time with TAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02129038022641960439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5793116735725005642.post-87614309887686341532012-05-26T08:48:50.860+01:002012-05-26T08:48:50.860+01:00lol sounds like my house.

One solution for us is that I DON'T iron...never have, never will. AND, I am so lucky as the one job Hubby does is the LAUNDRY!! It's delightful. We just sort of take each day as it comes...some days are less successful than others, that's for sure! ;)<br /><br />Karin @ Cafe BebeKarin @ Cafe Bebehttp://cafebebe.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5793116735725005642.post-71387431654516880302012-05-23T21:31:44.132+01:002012-05-23T21:31:44.132+01:00Oh if only I could!

Did a good 2 hours worth of ironing today, which wold have cleared the lot if it weren't for the fact that I also washed and dried 2 more baskets full.<br /><br />Oh dear. Maybe I should be saving some of those work pennies to get my ironing outsourced! ;-)Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05777201989424159161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5793116735725005642.post-69041464548404024972012-05-23T21:29:55.557+01:002012-05-23T21:29:55.557+01:00I think you did the post right there.

I've had a busy day today, and not sat down until 8pm and my feet are throbbing! I'm not used to it. I'd certainly get more done but I enjoy chilling infront of the TV with hubby on an evening. Never mind. I guess I'll just have to try and get up earlier instead!??Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05777201989424159161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5793116735725005642.post-29637825153943234912012-05-20T08:12:37.041+01:002012-05-20T08:12:37.041+01:00Thanks for asking me!

The iron is a sewing tool! :) Mr Myrtle is pretty much in charge of laundry, with me chipping in. Blog posts get whipped up in evenings or mornings when kids are at school. Me? I'm up early, showered and dressed first. That's the end of the looking after me! But, then again, my knitting/sewing is about me. Mr Myrtle and I enjoy nothing better than an evening together at home and the odd day out when everyone is at school. I go with the more time rather than quality time approach with the kids, and other than my brother, who lives with us, my family lives half a world away.... Our idea of socialising includes kids. Bbq's, coffee mornings etc.. I never deep clean, oh dear. Just speed clean. I shop on the internet and occasionally at the shop. I never sit down and do nothing and I knit absolutely every day A LOT. And, that's me. <br />If you don't mind - I probably won't do a whole post..... too much else to do?!
