Do you make your bed everyday?

[raammartin]

I just straighten our sheets and duvet. It only gets made if we are expecting company.

 

[msmouse]

I do believe that if my house was on fire, I would make the beds before fleeing! Yes, I make the bed everyday.

 

[jesszac610]

yup! We have a strict rule in our house, last one out of the bed makes it! I've trained my DH so well (19 years later) even if I'm away, with no chance of returning he says he feels guilty and makes it anyhow!!!! Now only if my DD would get that I'd be all set!!!

 

[laura001]

Yup!!! Make the bed everyday, I get up and have my shower, when I am finished showering DH gets up and I make the bed right away. I can't stand the thought of not making it, a little anal I guess but it has to be done!

We straighten the blankets and fluff the comforter every morning during the week, but leave off the decorative pillows and the shams for our sleeping pillows. On the weekends, we put on all the shams and special pillows. We take the train to work and every minute counts in the morning routine. I opted for five more minutes of sleep over the extra shams and pillows.

I make it everyday! Ready for this, when I was real sick , we make up the couch everyday as well!

 

[icebrat001]

lol, nope sure don't. I made enough beds when I was in the military.

The bed only gets made when we change the sheets.

 

[goodeats]

Yes, but we don't use a flat sheet, so it's really easy. All I have to do is pull up the duvet and fluff up the pillows.

 

[Cinderella94]

Nope


But if my mom, daisyduck123, asks, of course I do!

 

[just.me]

yes

 

[BeNJeNWaFFLe]

In college I did but that was because the bed was also the couch/chair/dinner table.

At home, I don't make the bed. No one comes up to my room during the day so I see no need to make it.

 

[Micca]

Hardly ever. What's the point?

 

[chyam]

OMG Yes of course!! I can't imagine leaving the house without the bed made. I don't think there is anything worse than coming home to an unmade bed or getting into one at night.

I couldn't agree with you more.....geezzzzzzzzz how long does it actually take to pull the bed together? I never leave the house with it unmade and I too never leaves dishes in the sink, I guess it was instilled in me by my mother, and there is nothing I hate worse than walking into a mess.I leave my house the way I want to find it when I get home.

 

[JVL1018]

Oh yes!!! I make the bed every morning and make my kids make theirs, too.
I HATE an unmade bed!

That was my reason last semester. This semester my bed is in a better location (in a whole new, much better room), so I don't have to make it. On Gilmore Girls night I will throw the comforter over it right before people come in, so that they can sit on it, but other than that, there's no need this semester. Last semester I had the bottom bunk and my bed was right near the door. People just leaned across it when we were at our desks, or sat on it or whatever.
My answer for the bed at home was posted earlier...

 

[Gretel]

nope not I

 

[Sleeping~Beauty]

It's the first rule of Flylady. I get up and make the bed immediately.

I make it everyday! Ready for this, when I was real sick , we make up the couch everyday as well!

Hee!

I think it is a nice neat way to start the day. For me, it is the first step of my morning routine.

 

[Brianne]

Yep. The bed gets made everyday & my kids make up their own beds without me having to remind them now. Kids learn by example, right?

No dirty dishes in the sink in the mornings either---the dishwasher is used every night. I can't stand a dirty sink!

 

[ntburns22]

I don't make my bed but I do make up the kids.

When would mine be made up? I sleep in it for 11pm-6am, if DH is working nights he is in it 7am-noon, and then DS (and DH if on nights) naps in our bed from 1-3. I don't see a point in it for me.

 

[Mishetta]

I make it everyday (unless I'm in the shower & my DH hasn't left for work yet, then he makes it). My DS who is now 10 y/o has been making his own bed since he was 4 y/o. I also have a 4 y/o (but he's a special needs) & he does try to help me make his bed too. Like others have said, the room looks so much neater.
