On the weekend while I have the chance, I take 20 to 30 minutes and pick out the clothes I plan to wear the following work week. I iron what’s necessary and then put them in the closet in matching sets. In the morning, all I have to do is decide which outfit I want to wear. There’s no last-minute ironing to do. This has save me many morning hours of frustration and hassles over the years. Liz K., Carlsbad, N.M.
