It’s always so surprising

When love appears over the horizon

I’ll love you for the rest of my days

But still it’s a mystery

of how you ever came to me

Which only proves

Love moves in mysterious ways

OKay, the UK doesn't have alot of pre-pressed clothes. The USA does. I iron my clothes and am thought of as a freak by my fiance :P .

What do you all do?

My USA fiance thought I was crazy to want to iron my clothes but he went out and bought me a steam iron.

The first thing I had to use it on was his shirt. ;)

I've never used an iron in my 21 years of life. :lol: If it gets wrinkley I throw it in the dryer for a while and then hang it up. ;)

Lucky you, most of my clothes say "do not tumble dry" :(

I iron only what's extremely necessary, usually tops that I use during the summer, some pants, but that's it. I used to iron almost everything when I was younger, but not anymore. :P

I'm another British ironer!! Although I don't enjoy it, I don't like looking wrinkled either.

I iron all my work shirts, trousers and skirts, but that's about it. I gave up ironing my husbands shirts after I realised that he just didn't care whether I did or not.

:star:

Make sure you're wearing clean knickers. You never know when you'll be run over by a bus.

I don't iron my clothes but I sometimes iron my husbands dress shirts or pants...

he would like me to iron most of his clothes but I told him before we got married that I don't do ironing :hehe:

:lol::lol: That's just what my daughter tells her hubby, I think I am going to find it hard to NOT iron, not that I love ironing but I cannot imagine washing a work shirt and not ironing it. Mind you it must be pretty wonderful to not have to iron, another job less to do :thumbs:

Life is like a challenge... Pursue it.

Life is like a sacrifice... Offer it.

Life is love... Enjoy it.

I iron most of my clothes, but not my under clothes. But so thankful for products like Downy wrinkler remover :dance: and the wrinkle setting on my dryer :D makes life alot easier!!!

I hate ironing my husband's shirt the most, as they are the most wrinkled and I have to get all in the creases... :angry:
