I used to just iron as I went. When DP and I got together, he did all his own ironing, and then started doing all mine too this has been for the last 6 years! Now that I'm a SAHM, I feel obliged to do it as he wears a shirt & trousers each day, though he did offer to continue. He's anal about everything being ironed, even...and I'm not kidding - his >lycra< boxers! WTH?? So, I do it every week, gosh I detest it though...that horrible basket full staring at me...I often think if everyone just decided to NOT iron anything, we'd all be wrinkly together, and nobody would look out of place...
I keep on top of my ironing. I need to buy a new iron (and cover for my ironing board).
During the flood coverage, I sat in front of the TV and did all the ironing on day, about 3 hours worth of ironing all up but I do have linen shirts that I needed to re-dampen before I could iron them.
I do iron sheets & pillowcases as well, both when they're taken off the line and then a quick press when they're on the bed.
