Sandpiper Member Registered: 06/19/05 Posts: 1158 Loc: Kissimmee, Florida	I like a made bed however I can't seem to get it done all the time. We have a comfortor so it's easy to just pull it up when I get out of bed. I don't usually move about much. When my hubby is home he'll help without any problems. He'll help put the sheets on also if he is home. I grew up where we had to make our bed daily. I like a pretty bed but am usually to busy to worry about it these days. _________________________ Sandpiper "Kaleidoscope Memories: Childhood Stories That Celebrate Family Life" - 2008 http://kaleidoscopememoriesbook.blogspot.com www.tidedancer.com

Dancing Dolphin Member Registered: 03/06/06 Posts: 2529 Loc: Southern California	I make our bed about 95% of the time. It just feels so much nicer to crawl into at night. Also, I fold laundry on our bed, so if it's not made we may find underwear in the sheets for a few days. A nice smooth blanket/comforter on top makes for a good folding area. Kathy

Eagle Heart Member Registered: 03/22/05 Posts: 4876 Loc: Canada	Nice to see you here, Sandpiper! I actually have been making the bed more often now, inspired by this thread...it's impossible to make it now without thinking of all my other boomer sisters out there making (or not making) theirs. Is it weird that it makes it more enjoyable knowing that so many of us are out there somewhere pulling up those sheets and comforters? _________________________ When you don't like a thing, change it.

QBall101 Registered: 12/21/07 Posts: 138	Eagle you're too funny! Now I can imagine all the Sisters making beds or tossing comforters up --then we run to our computers!!! I always say I'm going to check the weather, then forget and DH asks me what's the weather and I stand there looking dumfounded. LOL If it werent for my Foot I'd starve to death, cause I'm always sticking it in my mouth. LOL

Sandpiper Member Registered: 06/19/05 Posts: 1158 Loc: Kissimmee, Florida	Thanks Eagle. I made a promise to myself to take the time each day to come home (BWS) and chat with everyone. I have been so busy that I put it off and missed all of you terribly. You are so funny. I also will be thinking of you all when I am making (maybe) my bed. One of my problems is that my hubby is an over-the-road driver and when he is not here I sometimes sleep in the living room in a recliner (can breathe better). Then I use the bed to go through my various-promise-to-sort-out boxes. Many nights I have to just put all the things I've gone through back into the box if he comes home and I've not finished the job. Hmmm I think that is why I never get it done. Love all of you. _________________________ Sandpiper "Kaleidoscope Memories: Childhood Stories That Celebrate Family Life" - 2008 http://kaleidoscopememoriesbook.blogspot.com www.tidedancer.com

Dee Member Registered: 06/27/05 Posts: 2561 Loc: Alabama	Chickadee....thought I'd let you know...Larry tried your technique for putting the pillows in the cases and he was impressed...he thought that was pretty cool...so do I. Thanks so much!!!! _________________________ Dee "They will be able to say that she stood in the storm and when the wind did not blow her away....and surely it has not.....she adjusted her sails" - Elizabeth Edwards
