This is a totally random and pointless poll, mostly because I'm avoiding the massive pile of work on my desk. So tell me: do you (or your H) make your bed regularly?
I'm adding a clicky poll 'cause it's fancy.

Re: Do you make the bed?
Look at you with your fancy pants clicky poll.
I try to make the bed every day because I think it sets the tone for the rest of my day. If I make the bed I'm more apt to clean the rest of the apartment.
Follow my book blog: Panda Reads
Follow me on Goodreads: my read shelf:
i never used to make my bed pre-DH (PDH?). never saw the point, never cared.
DH straightens the bed every night before we go to sleep. it's basically making the bed minus putting the pillows upright and putting the sham pillows on the bed (which he finds to be pointless. sham pillows, that is)
if i'm home for the day, i usually make the bed at some point. it may be at 4pm, but, ya know, whatever..! weekends truly depend on what we are doing.
I know this is probably the oddest question ever, but I appreciate the responses! Since my H was on nights for so long, it never dawned on me to even think about making the bed...someone was sleeping in it for most of the day. Now that we're on the same schedule I was worried we were living like some crazy high school kids since we still weren't making it! I'm glad we're not alone
Yeah, this is kind of what I'm thinking. Our bedroom tends to be a mess (not the rest of the house, just the bedroom - weird), and I think maybe making the bed can help? We'll see!
Seriously, these are the SUPER IMPORTANT, INTERESTING things I think about on my commute in to work.

we are the same way. the rest of the house is clean and i am constantly picking it up. but the bedroom...that's another story. we have been making a better effort for the past month or so, but that's becase it got SO out of hand. i forced us to tend to it one weekend, and am doing my best to keep up with it so that we dont get there again. it's just not a room that we spend time in, except for at night.
I usually do this, making the bed before I get in. Since I work during the day and DH works 2nd shift, it never gets made. It usually gets made over the weekends since I am home in the morning to do so. DH never makes the bed, not even after washing the sheets, just the fitted goes and the rest just get thrown on (not tucked in). I like the feel of straight, tucked in sheets and most of the time it helps with tangling around you when you toss and turn during the night.
