Doesn't make you right any more than me, though. I don't think making your bed is a waste of time, it brings order and mindfulness to your day. Plus I (and a whole lot of other people) sleep better when our sheets are all tucked in. I know all about the bed bug argument - bed bugs like neat beds to lie around in....but I will still take the risk, and make my bed every morning. Glad you like looking at your messy bed. I suppose you must enjoy it, since looking at a made one, will bring on uncontrolable vomiting. Thanks for bringing your opinion to the table. Justin,

I feel like an efficient man because I haven't made my bed in 6 years (minus once at a friends house over Christmas). Making your bed is a waste of time. 5 minutes a day might not seem like a lot, but add that up over 6 years and it's a lot of good times and alot of great things done, not just for me, but for humanity. Plus i am so happy when i look at my messy bed. ahhh Help me, to help you. Making the world better one minute i'm not making my bed at a time - living the dream These 10 reasons make we want to throw up.

Can you help me? i don't want to end up sleeping separately. p.s. we always have a made bed to sleep in. what do you suggest for a girl with a boyfriend who constantly steals the blankets? we have been together for over 10 years, living together steady for over 5, so sleeping together is nothing new. he doesn’t do it maliciously, he rotates rotisserie style and the blankets get wrapped up around him, and i wake up after who knows how long freezing my lil butt off. it’s really starting to bug me.

The response I have had from this little post of mine, is awesome. Maybe I should think about making this a semi regular feature. Now lets see if I can address everybody in one comment. Sheila - I am with you sistah! The difference in my quality of sleep is huge when I make my bed in relation to the times when I don't. I wish I could convince everyone to try it. Hsien (from yesterdays comment), try the bed making for one week...it will change your life, at least your sleeping life. If I am ever out your way, I will come and make all the beds in your house, and then you will have to adopt me as the housepet....because you wont let me return back to canada ~ all of your sleeps will be that much better. Heather- I am glad we share at least one habit, oops make that 2, since I also seem to share your habit for making excuses to not exercise :D Cory - I think its only considered to be a problem when you make your bed more than once a day, especially when you don't take a nap. Ok I confess...I sometimes do that. Jennie - have you ever tried something like putting matching comforters side by side and folding them in half, so they look like sleeping bags, but when you lay them out, it looks like a made bed. s Its a really good idea for when your mate is a blanket hog. That way you each get your own. Ok I think I am done....this feels like a post in itself. Hope you all get some really good rest tonight. WOW! or as we say in my tribe, “Wowie Bzowy!!!” ok I cant believe I just said that…

See, the problem is that my husband uses separate covers. So making the bed means putting his blankets away, and then making the whole bed with decorative pillows, etc. And there's no point tucking in sheets when I can't sleep with them anyway (since husband will push all my covers to one side). Is this TMI? Well I agree with the first reason, it definitely makes the bedroom look nicer. See, the problem is that my husband uses separate covers.
