Silly me!

I was just ironing a couple of shirts and I had to laugh at myself, and then, as I often do when I laugh at myself, I had to blog about it!

The shirts I was ironing are a couple of white blouses; you know the type that fashion magazines tell you to buy because they go with everything. One of them is a long-sleeved wrap around style, the other has short kind of puffy sleeves and darts down the front and back that make it "form fitting". Its true that when I bought them, I though, "oh, this shirt will be great, it will go with this and that and the other thing". I have often looked longingly at them in the morning getting ready for work when I am all bleary eyed and tired and trying to figure out what I can wear that I haven't already worn 75 times. Its just that these blouses have one fatal flaw; they need to be ironed after they are washed. And honey, I ain't in to ironing. That was the one detail I overlooked when I bought them. You can tell I hardly ever wear them because despite the fact I have probably owned each of them for over a year, they are still relatively unstained and bright white. I have another white blouse of a slightly different style that does not need to be ironed, which I wore today and noticed that it is starting to look a little gray. So apparently I would rather wear a gray looking blouse, or the same thing 75 times, than spend 20 minutes ironing. I am silly!

On a slightly different subject- I counted tonight, and I own 21 jackets- is that excessive? (I can tell you that my husband thinks so!)

Well, TTFN!
