So do you make your bed every morning, when you are just going to jump back in later that day?
I don't ... my mother told me that I couldn't leave the house unless I made my bed. I didn't but she really didn't want to keep me home from school so she made it.
I don't make our bed now and thought I was just being lazy, Ken does pull the covers up but I just found out that actually it is a healthy habit to NOT make your bed! ... WHAT you say???
According a Kingston University study, that while an unmade bed looks scruffy, it is also unappealing to dust mites. Research suggests that the dust mite can not survive in the warm, dry conditions of an unmade bed. Researcher Dr Stephen Pretlove says that mites can survive only by taking water in from the atmosphere using small glands on the outside of their bodies. Something as simple as leaving the bed unmade during the day can remove moisture from the sheets and mattress so the mites will dehydrate and eventually die.
I really don't care if the bed is made or not .. yes it looks neater but usually no one is in our bedroom. I do straighten up the covers since Ken takes them all at night ... he says it is cause he is cold since I run the fan but he sleeps in sweats and a head band ... I can't figure why he needs to steal the covers too!!!
