Default How often do you make your bed?

No, not a poop story or a sleeping naked story.

I sleep with the covers/blankets untucked so I see no point making my bed.
Of course this makes me a slob.

How often do you make your bed if at all? If you have kids, do you make them make their bed every day?

When I launder the sheets, so once a week. And I drink from the milk carton, too!

I never understood the point of making my bed only for me to mess up the sheets that night. I can't remember the last time I made my bed.

I make my wife do it, daily. She gets out of bed after me, so it's only fair.

It is a waste of time and energy. I never had an obsessive mom, but I do have an obsessive aunt who cleans both her kid's sheets every couple of days and even makes their bed every day.

Whenever I stay there, I have learned to make my own bed as soon as I get up so that she does not have to. Aside from that, she is the best aunt ever.

I never do and I don't make my kids do it either. Seems silly since you're just getting back in every night.

Every morning, before I wash my hands, then again after washing my hands, then I wash my hands again, then check that my hands are clean, then I leave the room, but check the bed again, then leave, then check again, then leave, lock door not once, not twice, but thrice.

Phew, now I can start my day.

My wife does it. When I make the bed, she just fixes what I did, so I no longer do it. My kids make their own bed. They pretty much have the same quality control that I do, but my wife doesn't fix theirs.

Once a week basically, but I was just thinking I should do it every day. Just a good habit to have.

If I toss and turn all night, I'll flip all the blankets back to where they should be (or thereabouts anyways) Otherwise, I do it ever week or two when I wash bedding.
