Who is more pathetic than me?!? Can you beat this???

[lewdyan1]

Okay, I have never claimed to be a domestic goddess, but I think I will soon have a permanent "L" (as my DD says Loser) on my forhead
My DD was at a friends house and they pulled out an iron and she didn't know what it was (my fault, right). Okay, I don't know who was more embarassed, me or her friends mom! Alright, I do know...it was me!

My theory is someone has to help keep Dry Clean USA in business and I am happy to help! However, my DH has offered to buy one, strictly for educational purposes!

Please tell me someone out there is as pathetic as me!!!

Well, my daughter is only 2 but I'm fairly certain she'll grow up to believe that an iron is something Mum uses for quilting and nothing else.
That is quite funny though. Hopefully she'll find a great guy out there somewhere who is very domestically minded. My best friend in highschool and I got our first apartment together and she didn't even know how to cook ground beef!!! She swore she'd marry a chef and sure enough, she met a guy who was a chef and she married him!!

It really is something you will laugh about...later...

And , I really don't think you should take blame. You are just a good shopper, and know how to read the labels...NO IRONING REQUIRED...

LOL!
I must say.. my kids know what one is..but they know mom doesn't use it unless it's an emergency!! Like DH has a major meeting and he just has to have the shirt that won't come unwrinkled through a quick tumble in the dryer!!

Me and an iron are like oil and water.. they don't work well together! LOL

my DD would have said HEY YOU HAVE A DOORSTOPPER ALSO .

It's neet that they put them in the resort rooms as well.

my DD would have said HEY YOU HAVE A DOORSTOPPER ALSO.

Love it!!!

My mother swears that she must not have taught me what one was, since I don't use it! However, I just tell her that I was smart enough to marry a DH who wants to do all of the laundry! See, if that's what your DD learns, that is far more educational than what an iron is!

 

[Samantha]

LOL!
My kids know what it is, but I don't think they have ever seen me use it!
Reminds me of the time DD (6) asked me what an ice cube tray was for! She has only ever known the ice dispenser kind of fridge!

 

[kaylajr]

My kids know what one is ONLY because of seeing my Mom use hers

mine also falls into the door stop catergory
so dont' feel bad

 

[tmt martins]

Love it!!!

Nice it got my 1st Tag from the Tag fairy

Maybe the TF could change it to either ( His ,DD,or DW uses ___ iron as a doorstop).I get enough confusion on here as it is.

Can I get a little help here.


OMG was that fast THANK YOU TF.

Gender Challenged, are we???

Congrats on the tags!

 

[MomOf2DisneyKids]

ok, so THIS is where all the iron tags came from...

I saw the title about being pathetic, and thought maybe it was about begging for tags (which I just did in the other thread, )

But about the iron....doesn't anyone else use the "hang the clothes in the bathroom and run the shower til the wrinkles come out" method????

No, I don't! I am starting a movement for:

"The Acceptance of Wearing Wrinkled Clothes"​

I truly don't see what's wrong with it, it's just a different look!

LOL! I've used that method too !!! I guess this is sending me into some guilt.. I better ask DH if he needs his shirts ironed before leaving for his business meeting tomorrow!

LOL! Hmmm....well, maybe with the $$ I could save on the water bill, I could spend more on scrapping stuff.

And Nancy....tell your hubby you're too busy swapping to iron!!!!

 

[ddavis860]

Lwedyan1,

I was thinking about you today as I rehung the curtains in the bathroom. And sprayed them with DOWNEY WRINKLE REDUCER... ... and still my iron doesn't see the light of day

 

[PrincessNancy96]

LOL!!!
I could just see the conversation...
Honey, on a balancing scale of swapping vs ironing... SWAPPING wins by a landslide!!! Sorry, wrinkled you must go!!

I'm joining your movement!!!
