To iron or not to iron

Yesterday, my wife went to her mothers and took my daughter with her. It had been an eventful day with a lost set of car keys as well as the heat. While they were away, I got a message from my daughter that she was reading my blog! Apparently, she likes the way I talk about her and my son on it, though she did say I have been nicer about them on the blog than I have been in real life! I am not sure if she has read my previous one however (I may one day put the posts on here).

This meant that I got to spend time with my son and our dog.  Despite the heat, Leia was keen to play fetch in the back garden with a ball, and later in the evening was looking at me with the "When are you take me on my walk" look.  My son and I have watched things together, though he got fed up waiting for me with Friends.  He managed to convince me to watch Grey's Anatomy.  I am fussy with medical drama's and I was a bit annoyed that this one was inaccurate at times.  Overall though, it appeared to get most things correct and I even learned something through watching one of the episodes.  I think that he liked watching it with me, and I know I loved spending time with him.  I did the ironing while this was going on, ironing some of his shirts, but I was not able to find his trousers.

We found them this morning though, they were still in the washing machine.  He had washed them, but had not taken them out and this morning was trying to dry them with a hair dryer.  With this heat, if he had taken them out last night, they would have been dry, and also, ironed.  Saying that, I do expect them to be dry by now, and in fact may have been dry by the time he got to school in them.
