Do you make your bed everyday?

[longtimeclone]

I don't move much when I sleep so I just fold the blankets back.

It probably takes me longer to hang my towels up after showering than making my bed.

About ready to make my bed - because I'm going to bed shortly...

If so... why?

Yes I do because I'm somewhat obsessive compulsive and anything I can do to help me feel more organized and productive on a daily basis helps.

I only make my bed when I put clean sheets on for the first time.

My wife makes the bed and I make sure there IS a bed.

Firmly in the eff-it, why bother camp when we first got married, wife wanted it made, she made it.

Enter....a 70 lb dog who likes him a goooood nap, and who also has 3 different colors of hair, now I minimum make sure it's made at least to the extent of 'his blanket' spread over the whole bed. Sometimes it's a shambles underneath that, but a GD dog hair in your mouth at 3 AM sucks to a whole new level of suckiness.

Clarification...'his blanket' as in, the old shabby blanket that is the receiver of the dog hair so that our blanket (or effing duvet or comforter or whatever the hell is going on in that other thread) does not receive the dog hair, not that our beloved pooch has his vewy own speciaw bwankie.

yup - only time it's 100% necessary

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

I only make the bed when I change the sheets. It drove my mom crazy if we didn't make the beds when we were kids.
She even makes the bed in a hotel because she doesn't want the maid to think she has an unmade bed at home. My dad always told her that they were going to come in and strip the bed anyway so she was wasting her time.

Of course my mom also wants to wash the rental car before they return it.

Do you have a problem with losing your bed from time to time?

[VeloClone]

No I don't make the bed. What's the point? It's like tying your shoes after you take them off. I would like my bed open, because I'm hoping to get back in it in a couple of hours.

This rationale would make sense for me if I had a murphy bed, but I don't. My untied shoes aren't the single most visable thing in my bedroom, they are in the closet.

In the next stage of their research, the scientists are putting mite pockets into beds in 36 houses around the United Kingdom to test their computer model and will investigate how people's daily routines affect mite populations.

Where do I sign up!?

I told my wife that if she wants me to start making the bed then we get to use the Star Wars sheets that I want.

[CynadoAlley]

I don't move a whole lot when I sleep either, so the most my bed is usually "unkept" is a corner of it folded down. Except for on Saturday nights.

^^^^Saturday night is laundry night at Cynado's house.

Also who thought it was a good idea to make a bed and tuck the sheet in at the bottom? First thing I do when I get in a bed like that is thrash and flail to get that sheet free flowing again.
