Do you make your beds every day?

[Rouge]

I love a made bed... but I have to say there is something somewhat alluring and fun about an unmade bed. I don't know what it is maybe it's a rebellious feeling because I was an avid bedmaker all my life. But on a weekend I love my bed not made and walking in and just lying amongst the rustled sheets. BUT I love a freshly made bed with good crisp linen too. So just call me a freak.

i make the bed everyday...but sometimes not until i am about to sleep it in LOL! i have this *thing* where i like to go into a made bed...

also since we moved house we are now in a terrace that sits right on the street and have massive windows, so if someone were to try hard to look in they could see in...so extra incentive.

funnily enough though, i make DDs bed the moment she wakes up for the day. and after her nap in the arvo...now that i think about it i am soo displaying double standards on myself LOL!

on change-of-sheet days we air it all out. both the cot mattress and ours gets flipped and turned. not sure if it is useful but is something my mum (hospital corners kinda gal that she is!) drilled into me and it stuck.

What??? I'm supposed to make my bed? Oh man. Perhaps i should start.

I used to work on a super-yacht and had to make the beds the moment they were wrinkled. I even ironed the sheets and doona covers on the bed to get rid of any stray wrinkles. I think it scarred me.

Yeah, I can live with all sorts of domestic slackness too (although I don't like it), but the beds have to be made. Well, I make exceptions sometimes. Like the day I work, DS is sometimes still asleep in our bed when it's time to leave, and I'd rather give him cuddles than be making the bed before I rush out the door. But no one else is home all day, and I make it when I get home. I can't go to sleep in an unmade bed. Well, I probably could, but I don't want to try it . Our house generally has enough crap lying around, I find that making the beds helps it to feel that much neater .

DH on the other hand couldn't give two hoots, and is so messy in bed, it drives me nuts
If he is in bed alone, he always manages to somehow turn the doona upside down, and back to front. I have to have it the right way up, so I'll move it around until I'm happy, even if it wakes him I'm such a pedantic b!tch.

I try I do not suceed most days

Janie, my DH does the same. I often get up in the middle of the night and totally remake the bed because the sheets and doona are not sitting right!

Um no... unless I know MIL is coming over... if she springs a visit on us then I ask them to hold DD whilst I 'go to the toilet' and quickly go and either make the bed or close the door

It drives DP insane because his mum is a hospital corners, made the minute you are out of it kinda gal... me - not so much

I do however, love fresh sheets on the bed and getting into a nicely made bed... the only way I would make the bed each and every day would be to change the sheets each and every day and that ain't going to happen
