Utilization of the coverings?

When you sleep how do you use your covers, blankets, bedspread, sheets etc? Are you the type that throws the covers over your head hiding from the world? Are you the type that just holds onto the covers not caring how much of your body is covered? Are you the type that steals the covers from your mate at night? I am the type that holds a corner and covers all my body except for my feet. I can not stand my feet under the covers at all. I use the sheet, blanket and bedspread even in the summertime. How do you utilize your bedding items/ HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

How funny I am the same way. It can be freezing but my feet have to be uncovered or there is no way I can sleep. I can't even catch a nap with socks on. LOL

We have a top sheet, thin blanket & quilt. This allows us to take off one or more, or use all three. Dave says that I hog the beddings sometimes, but thats not true! As to how much of my body is covered depends entirely on the weather. Last night I had all three covers on, but I am still only wearing summer pj's.

I always use all the coverings. I like to be totally covered except for my head. I like to have the covers all the way up so that they are just under my chin. I also use all of the covers even during the summer. I just feel more comfortable with all of the covers for some reason-even when it's hot outside. I just try to make sure that the house is cool enough that it won't bother me to have all the covers on.

Ohhh I love having my head covered for some reason. Just my feet have to be free is all. I can sleep any other way as far as covers on me. Sometimes in the humid summer I may sleep without a cover at all. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!`

I have my very own comforter so I don't have to share one - doesn't work sharing. I hate having fights over the covers. I also have to have a pillow to hug. Can't sleep without it. I have to have some covers - at least a sheet in the summer. We put the air conditioning on most of last summer and I even used a comforter.

I usually sleep with a lightweight blanket, unless it's a really cool night - then I use the heavier one. I make sure I can stick my feet out if I get warm because if my feet are hot, so am I. If they're cold, so am I. If it's a hot night, I use only a sheet and I have it over my middle with my top and bottom out. Don't know why - other than I feel "exposed" if I don't have something over me.

I like a cover all the time except in the sweltering heat because then I don't want anything touching me. I don't cover my head but I do cover the rest of my body, and sometimes I will just toss a foot or leg out for a bit of air.

Thank god for you, I also can not stand to have one foot covered when I go to bed at night, if I go to bed before hubby he will constantly come in and cover up my foot, he said it is stupid to have that foot hanging out. I swear if you cover up my foot I can't breathe, now I know that must sound stupid but it is the way it feels. I pull them up to my neck most of the time, once in awhile I have to cover up to my hair to keep the cat away, when hubby is in the bed I have them all, he is constantly pulling them back over to him.

When I go to bed I use a top sheet and a very light weight down cover. I pull back my bedspread, down to my feet, and have to fold it over twice. I get so hot at night time that I can't sleep with a lot of covers on me. I have hot flashes and I have to sleep with my fan blowing on me or I can't sleep at all. I also have the window open above my head. I need my bedroom to be on the cold side or I can't sleep. I even have the window open and the fan going, in the winter. I usually wake up in the middle of the night with no blankets on me at all and then I am cold and have to find the blankets to cover myself but then when I wake up again I don't have the blankets on me again and have to find them.

I'm not exactly sure how my posting ended up as a comment on someone else's post, but it did. Sorry about that. I can't copy and paste, so I'll just ask for you to look for it.

I'ma feet stickin' out the bottom type a person too.. but hubby simply must have his feet fully covered, be it thick quilt or just a sheet, depending on the weather. I confess I find this highly odd. How can he stand to have his feet not only completely covered, but sometimes wrapped right in the blankets.. yikes, shiver me timbers, I can't even bear to think about it!

I normally steal the covers from my husband at night, or so I am told. My feet are normally covered up unless I am hot, but I never cover my face. My husband tells me that I cacoon myself in the blanket after I steal it from him.

I usually cover my whole body up except my head and sleep that way. The only time I sleep with my feet uncovered is when I'm hot. As soon as I cool down, I cover them up again.

After having a cat take the sheet off the bed while leaving the blanket on (no idea how) I gave up on the sheet and just used the blanket all winter. Now I have a flannel sheet I'm using for a cover. I like to have my bottom and legs covered, one foot sometimes sticks out. In the winter I cover more, summer less. Some days I just lay on top of everything, if its not too cold in the room. Of course, sometimes the cats keep me warm/hot.
