Older Folks and Vaping Back Porch - Part Seven

[Nermal]

Well, dang, Diver. I was just wishing for a pair of blue jeans that would fit my body style (boa constrictor that swallowed a basketball) because I was thinking they didn't need to be ironed.

It wasn't that long and I had them all ironed and hung up in the bedroom closet.

Ironing jeans? Ironing jeans? Are you a new species? If you get a call from Ironers Anonymous, it's because I called them about you.

I once had a buddy who sent his jeans out to be dry cleaned. (Rich! He showed up at school in the fall of 1962 with a brand new Studebaker Avanti.) The jeans eventually developed a sort of steely blue-gray color (as opposed to the paler, washed out color of conventionally-washed jeans).

Last week I got industrious and did some chores around the house. I was taking laundry out of the dryer and I discovered I had 3 pairs of jeans that were wrinkled, really bad. I also found a pair that was hanging on the rod above the dryer. So now I had 4 pairs that were in need of ironing. Oh well, my pain level was bouncing about a 4 or slightly above on the doctor's scale. I turned on the sound system, cranked up the volume and started jamming out on the Eagles and "Hotel California". It wasn't that long and I had them all ironed and hung up in the bedroom closet. Today, I was doing another load of laundry happy that I wouldn't need to do any ironing. I turned around looking at the ironing board and there, right near the iron was another pair of jeans in need of ironing. Dang it! Oh, well. It didn't take long to iron them and hang them up. I haven't worn jeans since Spring so I'm not too worried about it. I do have a pair of bib overalls for when I am doing weed eating and edging of the yard.

why iron them? Just take them out of the dryer as soon as it stops running. They'll look just right.

Yep. Give 'em a good shake, fold neatly or hang. Done.

You must be the last person I've ever heard of who irons jeans!! Just take them out of the dryer and fold them nice - DONE!

Thank you so much everybody! It was a very nice birthday. Yiddle, can't believe you remembered that!! The day ended with Mike and I and our daughter going to the local book store to meet Kyle Mills who authored the new Vince Flynn book, Red War. Very interesting author. And the new babysitter worked out just fine! That means as long as our daughter is here we know we've got a sitter!

Yiddle, can't believe you remembered that!!

Having too good a long memory can be a blessing...or a curse...depending on what is remembered...

Look them in the eye & tell them they are wrong. Use your mean voice. I had a little talk with my Grandson the RN. It consisted of "If you don't stop lying about vaping, & shaking your head everytime I hit this pv Ixm going to wash your mouth out with soap. Hard." His Mom (my daughter) told him not to look to her for help, she hates the taste of soap.

Yes I would but they are nurses in a cancer clinic and I think you'd have an impossible time convincing them. I figgered better just left alone. We were going to talk to her about it but she came in early so Ginny didn't have much time. God she has a terrible cough. They always take vitals before they start and her O2 was 77, had to put them on theirs, she wants to get a portable, but she is going to need something. We'll see her in 18 days she is on the same schedule as Ginny, so we'll see her then.

Happy Birthday Dear Janet

 

[2legsshrt]

Wow another 3 day cycle over. She felt great till today but she might just be tired. I know I am, I do all my shopping on those 3 days. Man Walmart is huge on a sore leg. I hate going there but some things have to be gotten there. Hoping she feels better tomorrow. Get to stay home and relax.

I think Millie and her son had to get out of their hotel room so she just came it early. This was her first 3 day cycle. That's the lady Ginny likes.
