slo’s WEDNESDAY 8/3 poll - Your Covers/Sheets/Blankets

[slo]

When you go to bed, what covers are covering you?
(multiple choice)



For Me….A sheet and a thin blanket (85% of the time all year).
There is a small amount of time in the winter that I may add the comforter.

 

[Kitty 34]

a quilt and two larger "throw blankets; no sheet on top, just one to sleep on

 

[prairie_girl]

I sleep with a sheet, and in the cooler months, a comforter as well. Always untucked at the bottom because my feet are claustrophobic lol

We just threw 2 weighted blankets away. I thought I was going to suffocate for sure.

 

[Drewsdad]

Add a weighted blanket in winter

 

[leebee]

I'm the only "other" so far. It really depends on the season. Right now it's summer. I sleep on top of all the "regular" bedding with just a light blanket over me. Feet have to be uncovered. In the winter it's another story. I was SO COLD this winter! Our bed has top and bottoms sheets, a thermal blanket, and a bed spread (lightweight quilt). DH kicks off the quilt, but I kept it and added a blanket over everything. I was so freaking cold this past winter! I guess it's old age setting in!

I need a hot bed, even in the summer.
Heated blanket, sheet, regular blanket, two comforters.

Flannel Sheets - yup I use them all year
Ugh Fleece Blanket - it’s so soft
Down comforter
During summer - turn down bed and don’t use comforter - but will in winter
Most time wake up - everything is on floor and I’m freezing - hence why I sleep in sweatshirt ! My bed looks like a war went on !

LOL, I'm under just a sheet and blanket in late fall/end of winter with the window open and it getting down to 50° in the bedroom with a fan blowing. I turn my furnace off at night in the middle of winter and live in a crappy trailer so it doesn't hold the warmth (or cool air in summer.) When I wake up and find it's in the 50's inside my place, that's always when I wake up the most refreshed from sleeping.

During winter we use mattress warmer. Think electric blanket under the sheet. It's amazing to climb into a warm bed. We tend to turn it on when getting ready for bed and turn it off once we are in bed.

Depends on how I'm feeling that night and the season. Since my wife has control of the central air I need a comforter in the summer. On occasion I'll be warm and go with only a flannel sheet. During the winter there is a heated mattress pad, then usually the comforter and possibly the flannel sheet along with it.

 

[willowsnn3]

No top sheet. Just a light weight comforter. In cold weather I throw a blanket on top of the comforter.

 

[nw6675]

I am so hot right now just reading some of the responses.

I would even buy the bed a/c contraption that keeps showing up in my ads!

 

[antmaril]

Top sheet and a thin quilt. This is year round.

 

[Dan Murphy]

Top sheet and light blanket all year. Electric blanket also a few times during the winter.

 

[Schneewittchen37]

I voted for sheets, one blanket and a comforter, but it actually varies depending on the season.

I always use sheets. I hear some people don't use top sheets. I think that's revolting.

In the late Fall, Winter and early Spring, we usually have sheets, a lightweight cotton thermal blanket and then either a down comforter with a duvet cover or a quilt.

In the Summer, we usually just have the sheets and the down comforter with the duvet cover.

 

[Moliphino]

My bed is always made with a sheet, blanket, and comforter/quilt (I have a heavier comforter for cooler months and a thin quilt for summer). Depending on the season or day I may not have all of them on me when I sleep or may add more blankets.

 

[NAB]

Yep I always use a bottom sheet and top so I don’t have to wash my duvet every wash.

The duvet is a light one for all seasons since I like the weight on me but my feet are us go in and out all night.

Also used to use flannel sheets in the winter with a comforter and blanket but those days are gone….lol

Also have been running the air and ceiling fan during the summer. Covers on , covers off.

 

[ronandannette]

Top and bottom sheets (must be crisp cotton percale) and a down comforter in a duvet cover. All year round. In the summer we tend to push it into the middle and just sleep under the sheet and in the winter we snuggle it right up under our chins. For me it’s always feet out, arms in, and my DH is just the opposite. To combat cover-hogging we use a king-size comforter on our queen-size bed and it works perfectly!

 

[Meriweather]

spring, summer, fall it is a sheet and light blanket.
I add a heavier blanket in winter. I sleep better with heavier but get too hot
