My $8.50 Quality Of Life Enhancement

This is my new toy: a tabletop ironing board, which I’d been waiting for “Back To School” time to buy because that’s when they go on sale. I finally found one at Target yesterday for $8.50 and snatched it up.

This represents a significant enhancement to my quality of life because it means that I can do piecing without hauling out the full-sized ironing board which a) takes up the whole room, b) is rickety and constantly in danger of toppling over when Youth go careening through the room, and c) makes a horrific shriek when being folded or unfolded.

It’s also a good reminder to me that I am no longer a starving grad student, and if spending $8.50 will improve my quality of life so much, I should just spend it already.
