Plucky Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 No. I like to air it out and don't like trapping dust mites. Yeah, that's the reason. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkInTheBlue Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 YES! Me, too! I make all kinds of blissed out noises when I slide into freshly washed bedding. Sometimes I forget that there are new sheets on the bed and when when I go to get in, I'm actually giddy :lol:. YES!!! That's exactly how I feel. I love it when I forget. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaffodilDreams Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Yes, an untidy bed at night would make me crazy. I have enough trouble sleeping as it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EducationX2 Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 :lol: That means no. To be honest... I don't even really make the bed half the time when I'm putting fresh sheets on. I just put the new fitted sheet on and sort of shake the top sheet over top, then pull the comforter or quilt over. I share my bed with a kid who moves more in her sleep than she does during the day (and that's a lot!) and a big furry dog who isn't happy unless her head is on my pillow and her body is tucked in tight next to me underneath the blanket. There's no saving my bed. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngieW in Texas Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 No. I sleep with a sheet. My dh sleeps with a sheet and three blankets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly1730 Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Yes, I do the following in this order: Put clothes in dryer. Make bed. Start coffee. Unload dishwasher. Drink coffee and read WTM forum. I should time myself; I bet it only takes one minute but makes such a difference. I have made my bed every day for at least the last 14 years unless I was at a hotel. Very similar to me. I start tea in microwave, put first load in washer, drink tea with my quiet time, unload dw, switch laundry, second/third cup with WTM Forum and make bed as soon as dh stumbles out to kitchen (around 7am:) I also have made my bed every day probably since I've been around 10 years old unless on vacation or giving birth:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Corin Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Often but not always. We have a comforter/duvet in a cover, so we just have to straighten that and the pillows. Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnificent_baby Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 We had a hideous bedroom for the first several years of our marriage. Everything was mismatched, the carpet was filthy, the paint was worn, the room was dark. I hated it. A couple of year ago, we redid it, and I refuse to leave the room in the morning messy. Now that it is so streamlined, it takes no time at all to keep it looking like it did the day we redid it. The only difference is, I keep my workout clothes in a pile on my treadmill next to my shoes. It just wouldn't look the same with the bed unmade. http://ournestof3.blogspot.com/2011/02/sharing-final-room-photos.html I love your room! Thanks for sharing!

Tarreymere Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Yes, I make my bed every single day, but I'm also a weirdo who puts clothes in the washing machine while they are still warm from the wearer....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnificent_baby Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Always when we are expecting company. Any other time, occasionally. I need to change that. I love walking into my room with my bed made; it makes the room look so much better and I feel more motivated to keep the rest of the house tidy. I have been doing a better job of requiring my kids to make their own beds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionfamily1999 Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 I make my bed strictly because I love how a fresh, tight made bed feels getting in. I swear I'd I had a daily housekeeper then I would have several sets of sheets and have newly washed sheets every day. I'm excited at night when I realize I washed sheets that day. It's like a treat. :):iagree: If company is coming over, my bed is too covered with things to tell if I made it. :lol: Mine too. Make the bed first and you protect the sheets ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustybug Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Most days I do make the bed. There is a rare occasion when I oversleep and I have to get out of the door somewhere or if it is just one of those stay in your pjs and lounge kind of days that I don't. Our room is small and having an unmade bed makes it look messy even if the room isn't. Our bedroom is also visible from the living room, so I like for it to be neat just in case someone drops by.

Ellie Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 I only make it if company is coming over. I like to be ready on the spur of the moment if unexpected company drops in. :) It is also why I shower at night (I wash my hair in the kitchen sink in the morning) and get dressed right away when I get up. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BridgeTea Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I've never been a bed maker. I've always gotten up early, had plenty of time to make a bed, but I walk off and leave it either unmade or stripped every single day. When I return at night is when I either straighten the used sheets or put on the clean ones. Hmm...come to think of it, I always treated the children's beds the same way. They walked off and left theirs unmade (or stripped, if I told them to bring their sheets out with them in the morning) and together we'd get their sheets and blankies in place before tucking them in at night. I wonder if my adult kids still do it the same way?? Well, that little question turned out to be interesting (to me!) :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's looks like one you would walk through at an IKEA. I love the bedding. I like to be ready on the spur of the moment if unexpected company drops in. :) It is also why I shower at night (I wash my hair in the kitchen sink in the morning) and get dressed right away when I get up. :) We just close the door if someone comes over. The dog usually get sequestered in there anyway. There are no locks on the door, however, I don't think the dog knows how to use a lock. ;):D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
