masterrig 1 #26 June 3, 2006 QuoteQuoteFunny, you should mention that! Third time is a charm!!! Chuck So, does your lovely wife fold fitted sheets? If not, I'm thinking that if a woman *does* fold fitted sheets, that's a really bad sign. Walt _________________________________ Naw... they go from bed to washer to dryer back to the bed. I think, it's a damn good idea! edit to add: I fold only squares and rounds, these days. Bed sheets don't enter into the equation. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #27 June 3, 2006 I fold them just neat enough to get them back in the closet where they're stored (unless they're going back on the bed). When my mother visits, she looks at the size of my laundry room and says "How on earth do you fold sheets in here?" There's your answer, mom... I don't, really!"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J.

MF42 0 #28 June 3, 2006 Folding bedsheets makes about as much sense as making the bed look neat every day. Why? What could it possibly gain me to do either of these things? As far as I can tell, those are minutes deducted from time that could be better spent either having fun in various ways or being productive.

Muenkel 0 #29 June 3, 2006 I'm with you Krisanne. I have more than one set, so the ones not in use are folded just well enough to go back into the linen closet. Now, my cover sheets...there's no excuse for those to not be folded well. Chris _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLFXpert 0 #30 June 3, 2006 I'm a royal clean freak and also organizational freak, time-saving freak and convenience (but still efficient, quality & environmentally friendly) freak. Soooooooo.....I wash and put right back on. We have several other new sets neatly folded in their original package in the closet. When the ones on the bed wear out, I'll simply put them in the "Goodwill" closet and throw on a fresh set. I REFUSE to fold sheets. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

NtheSeaOrSky 0 #33 June 3, 2006 Walt, Upon careful consideration, I think you should write Martha Stewart and be a guest on her show to learn to fold fitted sheets. More than anything, I don't think she would know quite how to handle you and I really would be interested to see her lose it on live national television .Life is not fair and there are no guarantees...

freeflir29 0 #39 June 3, 2006 I actually sorta do. It's not terribly neat but it's good enough to stack with the other stuff in the linen closet. Now...........that's when I HAD a linen closet. Just yesterday I bought my FIRST set of sheets for Iraq. Up to this point I had slept on either a sleeping bag when it was cold or I had used one comforter as a bed sheet and another as a blanket. It's kind of nice having sheets. I feel so.........Civilized. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey, I thought it was kind of Martha-like when I lined the bottom of the tub with wax paper!!! It kind of reminded me of a fine tablecloth accenting the table for a fine holiday meal. Of course I'm sure she would have preferred a different centerpiece! Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
