It is hard to believe that this existed.

I can vouch for the fact that it did exist before women's liberation. He and I both worked full time. He drove the car my mother bought. I rode the bus ... pregnant. After getting home, I had to cook, serve, wash dishes while he was busy reading Time Magazine. I also had to clean the house, wash clothes and iron them while he was busy with his hobbies. It was so unfair. I was really happy when we divorced.

In the 50's I was doing all those things after I got home from school. My mother worked 6 days a week. I can remember doing the wash, fixing some of the basic things for dinner, having to dust and vacuum the house every single day. Who does that these days? I could never figure that one out. We lived in a 2 bedroom lower apartment. In the winter I remember having to pour water into the trays that were built into the radiator covers. I did the wash and hung the clothes on the back porch to dry, even in the winter. Sometimes they hung in the basement. I had dishpan hands by the time I was 12. I remember being on my hands and knees scrubbing the kitchen floor once a week.
My fondest memory was getting the iron grinder out and stuffing baloney into it along with pickles and shelled peanuts to make a sandwich spread. We were allowed only one glass of milk at night because it was so expensive. As a treat I could get one 5 cent coke a week, usually on Friday evening.

Yup, I can remember that also. Not only sheets but I ironed hankerchiefs, kitchen towels, Bath towels. Just about anything that was straight was left to me. My mom did the shirts and difficult stuff. I must have been around 8 at the time. I remember we had a mangle for a couple of months on trial. That was a neat machine.
