Then I learned to quilt and now it's SOMETIMES.

I might throw the covers up when I get out, but not often. Oh, when I take a picture of a quilt top that's done, I'll straighten out the bed then. Thanks for sharing.

There are times I leave the covers neatly turned back if I want the option of getting back in it. :-) I rarely use the option, but sometimes it feels nice to know my bed is waiting for me.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01805403370463885686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8630979976490932348.post-82773045232956478182011-08-05T07:45:39.870-06:002011-08-05T07:45:39.870-06:00I rarely make the bed, but I used to..when I was y...I rarely make the bed, but I used to..when I was younger and more compulsive...the dust bothers me more than an unmade bed, lol..when we change the linens the bed gets made, only to get in and unmake it again..<br /><br />BarbDogmom Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00200083614598683445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8630979976490932348.post-23969213730032690152011-08-05T07:06:36.206-06:002011-08-05T07:06:36.206-06:00The rule in our house (it's just my hubby and ...The rule in our house (it's just my hubby and me) is the last one out of bed has to make it.

Right now we are on opposite shifts, so he doesn't make the bed and when I get home and see it messy, it makes the whole house seem out of control.

But when I got married, my husband said that he just couldn't sleep in an unmade bed, so I began making it every day and have done it ever since! I'm a terrible housekeeper otherwise, and I must admit that it's kind of nice to have a (moderately) neat bedroom because the largest piece of furniture in it is neat and tidy! Now if I could just convince my husband that I'm not happy with the dresser drawers left partway pulled out....Sarah Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18393284767325742399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8630979976490932348.post-78308578084963706082011-08-04T23:58:00.430-06:002011-08-04T23:58:00.430-06:00Meh, my door stays closed most of the day so littl...Meh, my door stays closed most of the day so little persons aren't playing in my makeup/jewelry/shoes/etc. Out of sight out of mind.

Make it when I change the sheets (or take a quilt picture, LOL), and straighten it before I get in at night but otherwise, nope.
