Tammyla Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I just gotta have clean sheets.:rolleyes: Oh, and I simply wash them and put them back on the beds. It's easy and optimizes the fresh sheet sensation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenKitty Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Every other day. Clean crisp sheets I love em'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TammyinTN Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Once a week here....I would love everyday though. That whole crisp sheet thing and all. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisy Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I try for every week but it is probably more like every 2. I love crisp clean sheets but I feel like I'm constantly changing another bed. So someone always gets clean sheets every week. It just may not always be me. :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KristineIN Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Ok, I'm embarrassed even admit this, I don't wash them very often. It's the job that I hate the most. Dd's were washed last week because she got sick. I do wash dh's & mine a little more often. We use all flannel in the winter & do wash our cotton sheets in the summer more. If they really stink, I wash them. It's not high on my priority list. We do make our beds everyday though! We get in bed clean. Once when I was a kid I stayed at someones house that had gritty sand bed sheets and dry cat food in the bed sheets. It was gross. If we had company spending the night, they would get clean sheets. Also, as the kids get older and stink more, they will have clean sheets more often. Kristine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mekanamom Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I change sheets every Friday, alternating between the kids' sheets one week and mine the next. (ala Motivated Moms). I dislike this chore, but I like clean sheets. ;) I try to get the kids to help with their sheets as much as possible (they do their own wash) but two of them have loft beds and it's just awful putting sheets on those. Bleh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrairieAir Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 unless something comes up, and then it's shifted a bit. Once in a while they go two weeks if life is just really hectic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFSinIL Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 kids - rarely (mostly because the teens insist on rolling up in blankets on a bare matress - even after I make their beds!!! - while the preteen insists on a sleeping bag on her bare mattress.)

stephanie Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Once or twice a week. The whole bed bug thing really freaks me out! I do mine and my dc's.

Just Me Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Every Friday in the summer. Every two weeks in the winter. I also wash the comforter every two weeks, since our Border Collie sleeps at the foot of our bed, and we can't seem to break her bad habit!!

Crissy Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Clean sheets all around every week. But I only change mine. The boys have been taught how to change their sheets. Once a week I put a fresh set at the end of the bed when I wake them, and the know to pull the old sheets off, toss them into the laundry and make the bed with clean linens. My 9yo still needs a little help getting things tucked properly, but they do a good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa in SC Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Everyone gets new sheets weekly. I strip all of the beds and will help re-make if help is desired.

Pajama Mama Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 We do our weekly chores on Saturday which included the changing of the guard, I mean, sheets. But since November it has been monthly or worse. I've been sick and then the kids took turns being sick. Of course I changed sheets for sick kids but we got out of the weekly changing. Funny that I happen to be washing our sheets right now. I really did start them *before* this post--you guys didn't shame me into actually washing them-LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary H Posted January 23, 2008 Author Share Posted January 23, 2008 like a couple of others 5 whenever. My dh does not like this so, I am trying to see what everybody else does. I guess I'll go with every 2 weeks and then maybe every week. I am kind of lazy when it comes to this.:o My dc change their's every two weeks or so. I do all the wash except for ds's (18). The do help with folding their own clothes, and puting away. Although, I do have to go and make it nice so they can shut their drawers.:) Mary H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
