"215 miles is the amount of ironing a woman does in her lifetime, compared to a man's 73"
AND
"women report greater sexual interest for partners who do housework"
Let me tell you I'm nowhere near 215 miles!!!!!!
And ooooh yeeeeeaaaahhhh - hubby has his hands deep in the kitchen sink right now... definitely a turn on! ;)

DO YOU IRON YOUR SHEETS?
Seriously. I want to know. See the thing is I have a moment in my work-in-progress where my heroine has the hero on about making his poor petite, heavily pregnant housekeeper iron his super kingsize sheets. The woman is literally drowning in them. It's part of the point where the heroine ticking him off for being well, a little spoiled.
And then I got to thinking - oh no! What if MOST people do iron their sheets? What if this is normal??!!!! What if I'm about to display my complete uncouth crassness and lack of general housekeeping skills because I don't iron my sheets??!! What if every reader of this book is going to raise their hands skywards and say ay yai yai - of course the housekeeper should iron his sheets!
See the fact is, I don't iron anything. My husband does it. It's because of my lefthandedness you know? I get burns every time. (That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!). So for me, ironing sheets just seems a little, well, unfathomable. Now I admit, I've never - to my knowledge - slept on ironed sheets. So maybe if I did I'd know the difference and never go back.
However, I can't see hubby ironing them this week. So please, take a moment if you will and click on the poll to the right there - and let me know what the consensus is - to iron or not to iron!!!
