Everything I wore, practically everything was ironed. It was the only homemaking job I grew up to HATE.

I would rather clean the toilets than iron.

A lot of my dresses and shorts and stuff were home sewn.

Our house was CLEAN and we were clean.... But.. no one showered, we all took baths.

There were five children in Sweetie's family, in a very nice home and in a lovely neighborhood, but they only had ONE bathroom.
