Smile for we wish to do your laundry and not to forget the ironing as well. This sign sits up on a laundromat wall and while I didn't take my laundry in, I did notice the sign and I did smile. Now while I'd certainly take in my ironing, I wouldn't take in my washing while I own or have access to a washing machine for all the tea in China, because I love doing the laundry. I love doing the laundry so much that I volunteer to do other peoples laundry, loading it in the machine, hanging it out, rehanging for maximum drying effect, matching soxs, pegging so minimal peg marks appear in shirts etc, folding dry laundry and putting it all away in the right place, facing the right way. That is my thing, doing the laundry. I love it. People love me doing their laundry. But I don't iron clothes, never do but once in a while if I absolutely must, say an awards evening or a wedding to attend. Because ironing is tedious and fidgety and in today's world of 101 crease free fabrics, it just seems like unnecessary hard work. However a garment steamer is definitely on my wish list for those ironing required moments: http://m.target.com/p/home-touch-perfect-steam-deluxe-steamer-white-gray/-/A-13778236. Maybe one day my dream will come true.
