I usually just pull the blanket up to cover the bed and call it good. I'd need an espresso IV upon waking to do any better. In your own house, 'tis best to do what you're comfortable with.

Very little when I was a kid, gradually increased over the years to the point where I do so every time. Most of the time, I make it straightaway, but sometimes, I make it after an hour or two.

I just pull the duvet back and leave it! I don't really see the point in making it. I really hate sleeping in a bed that has the covers tightly tucked in actually.

Considering that I often don't fall asleep in my bed, my bed usually is made. I will fold a blanket if I use one in the morning. I think I am more of the type of person who is bothered by dirty dishes and garbage laying around than having a sparkling, neat home all the time.

No. It's my bed; I don't have to.

I only do so when I'm awaiting a visit. Otherwise I don't see the point.

I pull the sheets straight and flip up the duvet so it looks neat but I don't tuck anything in. I can't sleep in an unmade bed (my feet always get tied up in the wonky sheet and then I overheat and start a fight with my blankets) so it's worth the 5-7 seconds. But I don't really mess up the bed much because once I'm asleep I'm like a corpse, no moving. :)

I can make my bed, and I often do make my bed. Usually before I go to college, or if it drives me crazy just looking at it.
:roll:

I can make a bed, I just choose not to, as I see no point in making a bed when I am just going to mess it up the next night.

oh, and untucked.

I even make other people's beds for them if I stay the night. An unmade bed makes me feel really uncomfortable. It's one of my obsessions, I think :oops:


what is a duvet?

What is your definition of making the bed?

I sometimes do, but it's in a way that's uniquely my own because I sleep on the bed weirdly and it is just more convenient.
