bedroom questions

Been pondering this lately....

Should I make the bed everyday?
What's the point if I'm the last one out of it...and usually the first one to get into it...and no one is coming into my bedroom during the day but me??
It's barely worth the calorie burn...I mean, what, 5 calories? Phhhht.
But there is something to be said about crawling into a nicely made bed - like when you stay at a hotel - jump on it, wrinkle it up a little, then get cozy. I think I sleep better when I get into a nicely made bed - the blankets are tight and I can pull them just right.

So yeah, that's my question for the week. And no, I'm not lazy. Just really efficient. Usually. What say you?

    If I had time in the morning, I would make the bed. Otherwise, I make it as soon as I get home so that I can crawl into a nicely made bed.

    I like having a made bed, but I'm a Capricorn, so ...
  • I have a nice illegal alien woman that comes in every morning and makes my bed and replaces the towels. In fact, its Indy-Mario's mum. She makes a great crispy bacon bagel too if I am really nice to her. She's not as hot as she was when mario was a pup, but she can still get-er-dunnnnn!

    Your logic is flawed.

    I HATE making the bed. I like seeing it neat but I'M not doing it unless ppl are coming over. I don't have many visitors.

    I make my bed before I sleep in it. I can't get into a messy bed and sleep- strange as that may be.

    I usually sleep from 10/11 pm to 7/8am and my boyfriend works overnights so he usually sleeps from 10am to 5pm. Our bed is never, ever made. :)

    My 5y.o. makes my bed....not kidding. It annoys her so much that I don't, that she'll go in my room in the morning straighten the blankets up for me lol

    i feel like making the bed is like tying your shoes once you take them off.... its pointless.... until all of the blankets are all over the place from a crazy nights sleep

    I am a bit bedroom obsessive, I love fresh sheets so I do it every day or every second day at a push...

    Hmmmm its a cap thing? I'll have to give that reasoning the next time the boy calls me nuts for making the bed first thing in the morning

    Lucky! We never make our bed, except for when I change the sheets. I wish we did, because getting in a made bed is nice, but my husband leaves for work at 5:30 am so I would have to do it all of the time!

    I make my bed as soon as I get up. I can't stand an unmade bed.

    Well, unless I'm in it :laugh:

    To avoid fixing my bed when I was single, I used to sleep on top of the covers.:laugh: I was hooking up on the fly and never knew if someone was going to sleep with me, so the bed was always made!!!!:laugh:

    Now that I'm married, I fix the bed everyday. No choice.:laugh:

  • If you don't mind unkemptness, then fine. I personally hate coming home to an unmade bed. I like things neat and orderly.

    I make our bed every day. It doesn't take long, and just looks more put together. And then the kitties won't get kitty hair on the sheets. :)

    I don't make mine daily....
    but it only takes a few minutes, and you said you feel better crawling into a bed that's made...


    So why don't you just make your bed every day?

    Or.... maybe you could just aim to make it 5/7 days of the week....don't worry about it on the weekends?


    It's not a big deal.. .
