    Why spread your bed everyday when you're just going to 'unspread' it in a few hours?

    I used to ask that myself and my mum asked me, "Why eat when you know you will get hungry again in a few hours' time?"

      I am glad that I'm not the only person who asked that question! But, if we don't eat we'll die won't we?

    Because when the bed is made, it gives the room the look of some sort of order rather than disarray.

      True. But one would think that by now with all the advances in science etc. that we would have come up with a more efficient way of keeping our bedrooms tidy!

    I'm with you, HC. Making the bed is a useless exercise in futility.

    I think it is important to let our beds air out! Getting up and making it right away traps in stale air, and moisture that might have accumulated from our bodies overnight.  I think it is gross to make the bed right away.  I leave the sheets and blankets open and open the window for fresh air, even if I have to close the door and turn off the heat in that room for a while. Then when I come home from work I close the window,  make the bed, and turn the heat back on if needed.  I do love the feeling of a fluffed up duvet, but it is far better to air the bed, then fluff the duvet nearer to the time the bed will be used.  The bed is far fresher and the duvet far fluffier if done this way.  The only reason I make the bed at all is to fluff the duvet and to make sure we both have an equal amount of blanket!

      I like that so much! I actually often make the bed right before I go in it. It already got enough fresh air and I definitely sleep better when the sheets are nice and tight and smoothed out and pillows fluffed up.
