extreme ironing

more of this sport which I am really starting to enjoy. There is a shot of me doing a lamb's tale and one of the splits. It looks easy, but don't try this at home!

I said I would be posting my extreme ironing sport events and to wet everyone's appetite I am posting this training session. It was a challenge to hoist that heavy ironing board from the '70's onto that roof. A lot of people who participate in this sport have fancier equipment than me, like battery operated irons, however, my iron still needs to be plugged in. Husband, Kevin lent me his super heavy duty, extra long extension cord for the event and I was greatful. He has even offered to loan me his gas generator so that I can perform "off the grid." I would like to issue a challenge to my friends and colleagues to compete with me. Email your photos of yourself "extreme ironing" and I will post them to my blog.

extremely boring?

I don't think so. Returning from a holiday of any kind can sometimes invoke feelings of boredom as life returns to its predictable cycle. But I have been inspired by this extreme sport to take my ironing to a new level. Watch for photos at a later date.
