Do You Make Your Bed Every Morning?

I guess some people just like to have their bed a certain way, each to their own really, and as long as partners can agree, does it matter if the rest of us don't ?I have got an exciting life, I can't help if my exciting life doesn't happen to include making the bed, can I? :rotfl:
Anyways, you mis read my post. I said I have BETTER things to do. I don't happen to think it's my top priority. I'm very pleased you take pride in making your bed but I don't. I'd rather spend 10 minutes making bread to eat than making the bed.
What's the point anyways, you just get back into it and mess it up again. :cool:
It is possible to make bread and tidy your bed
, but equally if you don't want to make it then don't! Ermutigung wirkt immer besser als Verurteilung.

Didn't realise not making your bed was committing cardinal OS sin :rolleyes:0

I love the feeling of nice straightened sheets . It helps my karma. I wouldn't be comfortable leaving my bed unmade.OrkneyStar wrote: »I guess some people just like to have their bed a certain way, each to their own really, and as long as partners can agree, does it matter if the rest of us don't ?

Like wearing odd socks, i would feel aware of it all day!:rotfl:
I'm sure you could make bread in bed? Ok, being silly now.:pA little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men :cool:

The sheets are straight, we only have fitted sheets
I can see why people don't post much sometimes, gosh, you lot are demanding aren't you?
FWIW, I work a full time job, currently have no kitchen, the house is full of falling plaster dust and commute 2.5 to 3 hours a day. Yes, I have better things to do with my time and no, I don't actually CARE if the bed is made. It doesn't bother me, so there

I don't have to make to my bed! Great! I work day shift, other half works nights, so when i get up he's got to get into my crumbled up mess! He also makes it when he wakes, problem solved. Althrough he is still slightly scared about putting on a duvet cover to the duvet, says he can't do it:rolleyes:Lynzie Lou :dance:0

I fluff my 2 Northern lights pillows, put my memory foam pillow on top in a certain way, straighten out duvet. Job done. 40 seconds?
Then again, i hardly seem to move the duvet most nights in my sleep. I am a very light sleeper and wake frequently, but some nights you can barely tell I have been there? I digress anyway
:rolleyes:
I have a superking size bed, a heavy quilt, 2 pillows, a faux fur throw to be folded in half & placed on the bottom third of the bed & 6 cushions to go in a 3, 2, 1 formation (each with their own place).
It takes me about 2 mins tops:D0 -

I wouldn't dream of dictating to people what they should do in their homes RE cooking, cleaning, etc.
Neither would I judge people for what their standards are or aren't:rolleyes:0
