    LOL, no I don't. My mother and Grandmother are disgusted in me I go through phases where I do but it's a PITA really because at midday they both have naps so the beds get unmade again (I feed DD2 to sleep on our bed) so I have to make them twice a day! So I gave up

    Yep for sure! I have to have beds made and dishes done or I feel like everything is out of control!

    I need the beds made dishes done and chairs tucked in to be able to relax

    fitted sheet, flat sheet, 2 blankets (in winter) and a doona. And when it's really cold, another doona just on my side.

    I thought the whole point of a doona was that it didn't need sheets...Well that is what I remember from all the hoohah about them when they became popular in the early 80s in my part of suburban Brisbane!
    I just have a fitted sheet and doona. Easy bed making in my house!

    Also you must feel the cold! Even in a UK winter I still use the same doona (duvet here!) Although we do have central heating

    Is this how you ladies do it? Eight steps to make a bed neatly! How to Make up a Bed Neatly: 8 steps - wikiHow Must admit there is something very enticing about the look of the sheet folded back over a blanket. Might go search my linen cupboard for flat sheets and blankets!

    Nope. I don't. I'm too lazy.

    The doona feels so much better with a sheet under it. I hate sleeping without both sheets.
    Our heating turns off at 10.30 and back on at 6.30 because I read somewhere that you sleep better in a cold room. No idea if it's true or not lol.

    I think mine isn't on all night. exDH set the timer so I have no idea! The radiator is never hot in my bedroom so maybe should get it sorted!
