I must know...

...do you make your bed? Every day?

Not a chance. My hubby rips the sheets out every night before he goes to bed because he says that tight sheets are too restricting. After a while of re-tucking them in, I gave up. It's SO not worth it. My mother scolds me for it. I told her that she could come over every morning and do it for me if she wanted. :0)

We do make our bed every day. We don't want to, but we have a (beloved) cat that seems to mistake our bed for her litter box...so we make the bed, and then put a vinyl shower curtain over it. It ain't pretty, but I got tired of washing all the bedding at 11:30 at night!

Yep. It's a habit I got into when I went off to college. I can't take an unmade bed anymore. Except when the husband is still sleeping as I head off to work. (If he knows what's good for him, it will be made when I get home from work today!)

[Valarie]

Ha! Ha! Yeah right!!

[Sister Honey Bunch]

Yes ma'am. Every single solitary day. I can't stand getting into an unmade bed. Drives me bonkers and makes me feel icky.

[Cristy]

Absolutely not. I get up before my husband and I have too much going on in the morning to follow behind him and make it up.

[Kristen]

I personally don't but it's done every night when I come home! It IS nice to get into a made bed. It's kind of like crawling into the closing sequence of the day!

[PAGirl]

I never, and I mean never make my bed. Well, I guess there is one execption, that is when I wash the sheets. I do make my bed when I put them back on. Otherwise I don't see the point. I am only going to unmake it that night to sleep in it. It might be different if I had to look at the bed everday, but I don't so I don't care. Someday when I find a husband I hope he doesn't care either.

[Linda .. the Aussie one!]

We do! Although we just pull it all up .. it isn't made "properly" but made it is. I have a friend who NEVER makes hers because she likes it made properly .. tight as a drum .. and doesn't have the inclination to do it that good .. so doesn't do it at all. Go figure.

I leave before Omar, so he makes the bed. On weekend I do it but really what is the point unless you are having company who could view it. As a child, I would bite the sheets while changing them.I wanted to tear them up. I hated to do it. My father would come help me and did teach me to do military corners. I still hate changing sheets, My husband does that also.

[Linda .. the Aussie one!]

Oh .. almost forgot ..

DO YOU make your bed every day June?

[chacha]

Nope. The only time I did was when we were selling the house. Which meant for 6 months straight the bed was made daily, and even de-linted with a lint brush (since our mini aussie likes to shed everywhere).

You would have thought that 6 months would have created a habit but I went right back to my lazy slothen ways as soon as we moved.

Funny that you posted this because I actually looked at the bed this morning and thought "Maybe I should make it?" Then I didn't. Ha!

[Shan]

90% of the time...

[Lenette]

No. Maybe straighten it a bit. And for the first 10 years of marriage? I made the bed EVERY morning, followed by hub's critique of my bed making skillz. And then?

I stopped making the bed.

Bite it.

I make the bed every day, even if I don't get around to it until late in the evening. Its an addiction.I have heard its important to let you bed "air out" for awhile each day, so I guess that's a good excuse for not making.

[Amy]

Always! It's always so nice to get into a nicely made bed at night.

[Sarah]

Only on Saturdays when I am changing teh sheets.

[Kellie]

Every Day but Sunday.

Because it is my great hope every Sunday to find myself back under those happy covers for a blissful Sunday nap.

A made up bed does not say "take a two hour nap in the middle of the afternoon today" like an unmade made does.

It rarely happens, but a girl's gotta have dreams.

[Karen]

Absolutely not.

[Dingo]

I used to be a stickler about making the bed every morning. There's something wonderful about sliding into a made bed every night. Then I met Mr. Dingo. And got a dog and a cat. Forget it. I get up before all three of them and neither one of them seems inclined to make it when they get up. Like Cristy, I have too much going on to go behind them and do it.

[Christie]

Yes, I do.

But I've got problems, so don't judge my bed by them.

[susan]

Heck-y no! Who has time? I'd rather sleep a few extra minutes. Plus the cat likes to sleep in the mess, too, so I have to make her happy! lol!

[Darla]

Always. Even when I'm sick I get up and make it (not all fru-fru like normal) and get back in. LOL I can't stand frumpy sheets & bedding.

[Shannon]

No, my husband is still asleep when I go to work at 6:30. I'm barely awake! It takes about 7 minutes to make it by myself with all my layers and pillows so I wait until hubby can help me. :)

[Ree]

Not EVEN close.
