I'd help, but it would only serve to get me in trouble at home. Cause I dont/wont do them there.
Dinner and dishes No problem, I'll cover that every night. Just dont ask me to do laundry:D

I'll help support them 'morals' too ;):p
Speaking of 'morals', my wife often complains about no bra fitting just right. I tell her its because none of them are modeled after my hands. If they were, it'd be a perfect fit every time:D

hehe. because i hate laundry so much... when i pull things out of the dryer, i don't fold them, but i lay shirts flat, stacked on top of eachother. that way, i don't have to de-wrinkle them when i get around to doing something with the pile lol. i do fold jeans and pants though...

Cranky americans DONT iron everything like the brits do...
We have DRYERS that are set on de wrinkle..our dryers in the usa dont wrinkle up clothes like british dryers do
My mother in law (bless her soul) ironed EVERYTHING including (pants) underwear..(underwear are called pants here)..I had to learn how to iron when i moved here (like cb said whats a iron? dont you have a dryer?) my hubbys shirts have to be ironed for his work.. i said cant they go to the dry cleaners and have them do it.. my hubby and mother looked at me like i was from another PLANET..so she taught me how to iron them..I mean i did know how to iron somethings not dress shirts.. so I can not wait to be HOME and buy a dryer.. my hubby says he wants a job he dont have to wear dress shirts..I said dont worry will find you and job that you dont work nights.. he was well chuffed about that prospect..
PS. i have a dryer built in to my washer..BUT IT SUCKS I use it to dry small things..not a load i will have to IRON it all when it comes out...SUCKS!and i still hate ironing..i have to do it 3 times a week (shirts)

Ironing.... HA!
the first time I tried ironing something when I moved out of mommy's nest... the brand new iron I bought for the my new place STUCK to what I was ironing...:eek:
that was the last time I bothered to use one... :p
I bought another one, but I think I've used it maybe a few times in like 13 years... :cool:
I just fold my clothes as soon as they are finished in the dryer... if you fold the clothes immediately while they are still warm and supple... no probs :D

My pile hasn't changed.....:p
Perhaps today I'll tackle it. :D
On another note. When it comes to ironing, it's hubbys job. He was in the Marines and does it a certain way. He does all the ironing here, thank God!!! Well whatever wrinkles the dryer doesnt remove...lol.
(Funny story: Back when we were just dating one Christmas, I got him a fancy Rowenta steam iron, and he bought me the Weber BBQ grill I had my heart set on. :p)

unfortunately, the wrinkle free dryer, and wrinkle free pants and shirts I try and buy dont always work out that way.
Still end up ironing every morning for 5-10 min for something to wear to work.
Screw all the creases I was once shown as the proper way. I iron to have them look ironed, not professionally pressed.
so did ya just say fook it.... or did ya get it all done :p

That's a loaded question. :p
I did eventually got about 1/2 of it sorted. Here in my house, I sort, and ubby puts away. Well my sorted piles when ignored for several days and even got a little messed up by my toddler. Today I said enough of this bullshit, I am not gonna feed any of yas til that crap gets put away. So they all worked real hard folding, hanging and all that good shit.
Now I have 3 loads that need to be washed. Guess where they'll end up? :o
Never ends in this house.
I am soooo serious about a nudist camp.
