Do you make your bed every morning?

[vraiblonde]

I've made my bed every morning since I was old enough to do so.

Better yet, are their any guys who make their bed? Men are notorious slobs - any exceptions in here?

 

[TPD]

I don't make my bed. My aunt tells me I should. She's 83 and makes hers everyday.

Nope

 

[BOP]

It's hit or miss with me. Like everything else in my life, basically.

 

[rio]

I make mine about 90% of the time. Everything just looks and feels better when the bed is made.

 

[GURPS]

I pull the covers up, but I do not ' make ' my bed like I did in the military

 

[my-thyme]

If I head to bed, and find that for some reason I didn't make it that morning, I make the bed before I can get in it. Can't stand the sheets not smooth......until later.

 

[SamSpade]

No

 

[kwillia]

No. I will shake out the blanket and sheets but not make it.

 

[LightRoasted]

For your consideration ...


Only when billeting in the barracks. After that, nope. But before getting into bed I straighten out the bedding. Or when the wife would always do it.

 

[BadGirl]

I try to make the bed, but it has a very lumpy appearance because @itsbob is still asleep. But at least my side is made.

 

[Sneakers]

Nope. My question is, "Why?" Because you're 'supposed to'? Because mom ingrained it in you because her mom ingrained it in her?

 

[RoseRed]

Not really. The sheet and comforter get pulled up to the pillows.

Because it looks nice. I'm tidy in general - no dishes in the sink, no clutter, laundry folded and put away. Gretel's toys are all over, but in general my house is always presentable. Mess bugs me.

"That lump in the bed is ItsBob...."

 

[KingFish]

I rarely make the bed when I get up. Wife is still usually sleeping in it. If on the slim chance that I am the last one to get up, I do make it and I like to tuck the covers. That way at night, the wife has a hard time pulling covers off of me when she rolls around.

You come from dust, and you will return to dust. That's why I don't dust. It could be someone I know.

"If you make your bed every morning you will have accomplished the first task of the day. It will give you a small sense of pride, and it will encourage you to do another task and another and another. By the end of the day, that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed."

Am male. Make the bed every day, but usually in the hours before bedtime rather than the morning as I rise a few hours earlier than my spouse.
