In an effort to plan better, I am recording how long it actually takes me to do things. This morning a modestly full basket of ironing took 4 hours. The bulk of the time is not actually spent ironing per se, but removing cat fur and other fluff. I suspect that it might take less time if I did it more often. I did also iron vast quantities of white and gold brocade and off white silk which are currently parts of one skirt but which need to become bands for two. That won't be happening in the forseeable future, but being flat enables better storage. Now I'm going to remake my bed and cook up the quinces in the bottom of the fridge if they are still cookupable. I wish my life were more exciting than this, but it isn't. Actually, I'm not sure that I really do want more excitement, but I do wish my CD player hadn't stopped working.
