Make That Bed?

[my-thyme]

I can not get in an unmade bed at the end of the day. I've been known to make it 10 minutes before getting into it if I have to.

Hubby says why bother, you're just gonna muss it up again.

Back when my husband and I slept in the same bed, he would never make the bed. He was the last one in it always. Now that we sleep in separate rooms, we each make our own beds. Go figure!

Only when I change the bedding or company is coming.

And science supports me!

It’s something that’s drilled into us from a very young age but it turns out that making your bed every day could be bad for your health.

In news that will be music to the ears of lazy people all over the globe, research has suggested that leaving your bed unmade regularly can actually do wonders for your health.

The surprising health benefits of not making your bed

Our mothers could have been wrong all along!

Monello and I compromised. I stopped decorating the bed with fussy pillows, and he agreed that the bed would be made every morning.

Even as a kid, I made my bed every morning.

I wouldn't say the bed gets "made" everyday. More like it gets "pulled together" or "straightened" everyday.

I throw the sheet and comforter back up to cover the pillows to keep the dang cats from sleeping on them.

my military parents were major bed-making enforcers. I never had a problem though. I enjoy taking the time to make it in the morning, and take all the pillows off at night. I loveee a big bed made all cozy with a giant comforter and blankets and a few oversized pillows. Even a fussy pillow or two. Something about a big pillowy, fluffy bed that makes it that much more inviting at the end of a long day.

Unfortunately, I married a no frills, no top sheet, basic comforter, 1 pillow kind of guy. He "makes the bed" when he's the last one out but honestly, that's easy to say when all you have to do is pull the comforter up

When he goes on travel for more than 2 nights, I absolutely break out the super soft top sheet and over-sized pillows

Completely agree! I like my bed looking like a Crate and Barrel ad.

See, that what hubby considers "made".

When hubby is OOT, the bed gets made when I wash the sheets. When he's home, he makes it almost every day. He's slacking.

Covers get straightened out ..... un wrinkled I had quiet enough of 'making my rack' in the Military

What is it with the No Top Sheet???? My granddaughter is the same way, when she spends the weekend with us, I always put clean sheets on the bed in the spare room, invariably she will take the top sheet off and just use the comforter! That would drive me nuts, I have to have the top sheet.
