Ironing four layer dresses

February 5th, 2008 at 08:24 pm

There is not much to report on the money front I still haven’t spent a cent! I did earn $5.00 ironing today for one of friends who has two dresses that she is planning to wear to a wedding that needed ironing. It was a bit of job as both were four layers each. Why is it that people who don’t like ironing buy clothes that they can’t iron or press themselves? They took over 50 minutes to iron both and spot clean one. This is not the first time I have end up ironing a four layered dress for some else they didn’t what to do and not the same person either.

On weather front the Cricket got washout again. It’s rained most of late afternoon and evening. Today it will rain this afternoon again as weather is unstable.

A climatology expert said yesterday that he doesn’t think all this rain will break our drought as we still need another 600mm of rain in the southeast area of the state around our main dam. It’s raining everywhere else. None of the flooded areas will get into that dam. Our Dams are at 30% full and were around 18% full before Christmas. Some parts of the state still have had little or no rain at all.

    If it took you 50 minutes you probably ought to charge more!

    I was so disappointed that the crickets got abandoned again because of the rain. Hopefully, it won't happen this Sunday coz we are going to watch it live (at MCG).

    I know I should but it's very rare that I do these dresses. I should have changed over $5.00 each. I do get more from this one than the other one for each garment. I do price on by time on what it take to iron a man's business shirt which is around 6 minutes each. Then think how many business shirts could I do in that time. My main ironing job is ironing business shirts and I only do it for pin money.
