You're human?

I feel the same way...

Yes, Yes. Me too. And don't give me something to mend-it won't be done.

Ironing dh shirts? <whine> Do I have to? Maybe we could just re-wash them and take them out of the dryer when they are slightly damp and shake the wrinkles out?

[quote=ckcowl]right next to sewing all day- but when the mending comes through the door---it gets put on a closet shelf (hopefully never to be seen again-much to my hubby's dismay)
takes me a year or two to hem a pair of pants...]

LOL I am SOOO the same way. I sew somthing new all day but mending that I will put off forever..

Because you really don't want to iron the shirt or whatever, and you aren't doing something that you really like such as quilting.

I can piece together crumbs for hours, but I feel the same way as you when hubby asks me to mend a shirt!

I am down to my last pressed shirt. I'm starting to wonder if I really need to run those errands.

Before I started quilting, the holes in my iron had healed up from non-use!
