Do you make your bed everyday?

MOONRISER — Sun, 05 Jan 2014 19:18:14 GMT

Personally, I hate getting into an unmade bed at night. I also change my sheets twice a week. My family says I'm too picky. Am I?

I make my bed every day. I change the sheets weekly.

Bed made daily--even when I am sick.

Sheets changed weekly.

I used to make my bed every day. Now that I'm retired, not so much as I like to take an afternoon nap. For some reason, I can't seem to fall asleep on top of the covers. I do usually straighten out the bed after a nap.

As for being picky, I say whatever works for a person is fine.

I make my bed every day, but don't always put the cover on it. And, I change my sheets once a week.

Yes! I just like to go in to my bedroom to go to bed and jump into a nicely awaiting bed! I change the sheets on Monday... in the Summer when it is hot I change them twice a week.

I pull my bed up every day....but don't put the puff, throw, and countless pillows on it unless company is expected. I just got too sick of hearing my husband complain every night about having to take all the pillows off.

What is it with men and bed pillows?( lol....I've heard him and his friends ask the exact same thing about women! )

Whatever floats your boat. I make the bed almost every day, unless I'm sick.

Sheets, once a week or as needed.

When I was working and still well, yes. I hated coming home from work to a messy bedroom. Now I am in my bedroom all day, and in and out of bed to rest my back . . . so, no. Although I do keep it neat.

Me too. Winter - flannel with light blanket. Summer - percale with light coverlet.

BTW overstockdotcom has their winter white sale on now.

Funny you would ask this today - i tidy up the house and make the bed every day EXCEPT MY BIRTHDAY - that day is my total day off each year. And today is my birthday so - no housework today.

Like Emma, the bed is made every morning but I've stopped with the comforter and bed pillows unless company is coming or I happen to be in the mood.

I must admit I don't understand the point of a lot of bed pillows either. Too annoying. I have 4 regular pillows (2 each side). Just one decorative pillow. I've seen some beds that are more pillow than bed with half the bed covered in pillows.

Sounds like my husband, but he no longer complains because he is proud of our home and appreciates the work I put into it. Now when we first married he would make fun of my need for so many pillows on the bed.
