I was very tired last night. I don't usually go to church except on sunday morn because by dark i'm tired. We had the Christmas program last night & i didn't get home till nearly nine. I got all comfy in my recliner & slept there all night. That was a first for me but like i said didn't have to make the bed today. did u. lol?

I do that all the time. When I can't sleep I spend my time downstairs surfing the net until I feel sleepy which is around 3am. Too lazy to go up, I'll just sleep in the sofa downstairs.

I taught mine to make their beds and they did them every morning. But now they only do them when company is coming. Lol Well, I must give credit when it's due...they do make them other times as well but not often.

Generally hubby makes up the bed as I am usually downstairs and dressed before him. I have not slept in a recliner in a while. I am extra tired lateley and I find I am dreaming funny dreams, LOL I tend to fall asleep even sitting and working on the computer.

I think I need to get out from behind this computer once in awhile. Probably need a real job.

Its the truth, the whole truth and nothing BUT the truth! This summer I was trying to throw the sheet up, to keep the cat litter out of the bed and darn if it wasn't on the floor every day when I came home from work, then, that weekend I caught him, under the sheet playing "mousie under the covers" all by himself, so he was UNDER the sheet until he pulled it off the bed!

Well, good for you! I sleep on my bed not in it. I have a sleep disorder so sometimes I don't get to sleep until 5 or 6a. so I don't worry about a bed with all the sheets and blankets. I just have a thick nice blanket I use that is warm and cozy and works great for me. As long as you get some good sleep I doubt that it matters where you do it. Happy Holidays.

i never do it any more. because i seldom sit in my lounger in the front room. spend most of my days in my office room at my pc and then just go to my bedroom and to bed most days. i used to do it though when i worked. id come home and fall into my chair and not get up till morning sometimes. yes, i always make my bed as soon as im out of it.

Hey Jo!!! I have fallen asleep on the chair by my laptop, on the recliner, on the couch..you name it, I have probably fallen asleep on it. I usually do wake up in the middle of the night and trail off to bed, or Mark hunts me down and wakes me up...LOL You deserve a break from making your bed once in a while. Have a super day!

Wow, you must have been tired! I did not have to make my bed this morning either. My wife did it! She does it everyday pretty much actually as I am awake and out of bed long before she is!

[b]Hi Jo!! I'm a wee bit late but that's been my norm lately. lol I don't know what's come over me but I've been kind of down and out with this deg gone wintery weather. Especially with the snow because it's so bright and shiny. My lupus can't take it so I'm stuck inside till it goes away and it makes me feel like I'm in some wooden box after a while. I know I need to get myself together and get myself interested in the things I love most but I'm still working on it. It takes time and time is what I have. About not having to make your bed, I've done that a few times when hubby was in the army and was going to be gone a few nights. I'd sleep on the couch instead of the bed because the bed is so big and lonesome when alone hence didn't have to make it in the morning. lol[/b]

That is a mighty good idea! Your discussion is four days old and I have no recollection of what I did then but I’m pretty sure I slept in my bed as usual! I am typing this on Christmas day, we’ve just had lunch and we are now waiting another hour or so before we will leave for my parents’ house. I thought I would catch up on some emails while we wait, I am so behind and I still had to make my bed! Merry Christmas!

I don made up bed. - From young i don have the habit of making up bed.
I don made my bed, it messy and the next night i just sleep on it.IF it is smelly if will spray something and if it start to itchy then i will change the bedshet and pillow sheat and such.From young i don have the habit to made my bed i guess because when i was young there is on the bed , the towel and 1 pillow, there is nothing to made up.Since the towel i will use to bath and dry and at night will use the towel.Got 2 towel wet and dry and alternative use as blanket.
