Ok, you can come to my house and do ....something...for me. What can we barter??

I like ironing tho I do very little. Most of my clothes go out on the clothesline and we usually have good enough weather for the amount we wear etc. Just 2 people don't create a lot.

I do iron napkins. I like that feel and I have a great collection of cloth napkins. I also occasionally iron out the clothespin marks on linen shirts. Other times I just spray some water on it and smooth it out and body heat drys it.

My husband has no clue on how to iron or sew. However, my x-h could do it all. He had 2 yrs in the AF and was pretty self sufficient that way. When we first married I saw other dirt-poor AF wives washing, startching, and ironing fatigues. No way....those babies went to the laundry and came back stiff enough to stand on their own. Fortunately we could afford the 50cents or so it cost.
