About being clean

Get a duvet. I don't make our bed like my mom make their bed, all that tucking I have better things to do with my life. I just straight out the sheets and through a covered duvet on the bed (you have to cover the duvet to keep it clean. You don't want to be washing it; it's a big pain in the *kitten*). With that Bob's your uncle and your bed is made. :bigsmile:0

I don't.. When we lived in our apartment, I did only on inspection days (once a year, they did inspections because they got in trouble for some code violations or something lol)0
-
I make my bed when I change the sheets or if we're going to have company. That's pretty much it.0
-
I can't leave my house if the bed is not made ; I'm mentally crippled like that. :sad:0

I make my bed every day, although often right before bed.
I don't use sheets, however -- just a thick soft blanket underneath and then one thick blanket on top -- so it takes less than a couple minutes to make.
I have a day bed at my mom's house, around 8 pillows, 5 separate blankets, and sheets. Also this frilly lining that goes underneath. I prefer my current set-up haha
PS: You can see my bed in the background of my current profile pic haha!0 -
I've never made my bed in my entire life. When I wake up the cover is chucked to one side and I go to smash the button on the alarm clock. Then in the evening, I get back in my bed and sleep in it. Where in that time frame does it need to be aesthetically pleasing? :huh:0

I have never made my bed, I usually throw the covers to one side and get out of bed and stumble to the bathroom lol0
-
We have a sheet & a blanket. And I only make the bed when I change the sheets. Guess I haven't grown up yet!0
-
same here!0
-
I rarely make our bed b/c my husband sleeps later than me. So ok, HE doesn't make the bed. But my mom always made a big deal about me making my bed and I never could manage when I was growing up and still don't!0

I make it when I change the sheets. Thats about it
Same for me. Or if company is coming.0 -

Bob's your uncle lol. I so want to adopt that saying but I'm not British!0 -
Fitted sheet and a duvet - "making the bed = 1 second flat" One movement as I slide out of it ;-)0

Why make your bed when all you're going to do is sleep in it again? lol I don't. I wash my sheets every five to seven days, and that's it... I put the bottom sheet and pillowcases on and throw the top sheet and my blanket there for me to find when I hit the sack.0
-
My thought is that it's just going to get messed up later, so why???
My husband, on the other hand, cannot STAND it if the bed is unmade.
The compromise?
I make the bed, It makes him happy and I don't have to listen to him complain. If he's out of town, bed is def unmade. My secret rebellion.... lol0 -
I don't make mine unless people are coming over. Complete waste of time for me.0
-
I guess I'm in the minority. I make mine everyday. It takes less than 2 minutes so I'm not sure how it could cut THAT much into time to work out like someone else stated.
I do say to each their own though.
I just prefer my house to be super organized. I wash the sheets twice a week . I also wash my bathroom rugs at least once a week so I guess I'm a freak.0 -
I only make my bed for two reasons:
1) I have company coming over
2) I'm putting on new sheets
Otherwise, what's the point of spending time doing something that no one will see and you'll mess up again in a few hours?
this made me laugh. I will agree with #2, but not #1. If company comes over, the bedroom door gets shut. If they snoop and see the bed isn't made, shame on them!0 -

Agree.0 -
I make mine every morning and so do the kids, but we are all kinda ocd. We are the ONLY ones I know that do this....
I make all the beds in the AM. Every single day. But then again, I am a little OCD-ish about it. I am not busting my *kitten* cleaning my house to walk by a room with an unmade bed. It would drive me BEZERK....LOL....So, Im with ya!!0
