Make my bed every day

April is bed-making month over at www.flylady.net

I did this last year, and the habit has stuck, so I don’t need to put it on my calendar again.

It’s fantastic to look back and see that something I struggled with in the past has become second nature to me!

Tomorrow is the last day of my month of bed-making… I did pretty well, except for a few days in the middle when I felt overwhelmed and exhausted.

The lesson I have learned is, if you’re too beat to make your bed, you probably need to change some things!

But I finally did it again. Much better

I’m tired, and sad, and lonely, and I just don’t feel like making my bed.

Isn’t that sad?

It’s true, though.

I didn’t even try.

I laid around in bed until I had to get up and run around like a chicken with its head cut off.

Why do I do that?

When I don’t do my evening routine, I feel too rushed in the morning to even shake out the duvet, which is basically what making my bed amounts to.

The past two days, I have had early mornings, and I have not made my bed before leaving.

Interestingly enough, the idea of getting into an unmade bed at night is so unappealing that I still make it when i get home.

I’m doing my evening routine now, so tomorrow morning should be less challenging.

I did in fact make my bed when I arrived home lst night, and then again this morning… it does feel better, and I’m more than halfway through the month!

Sometimes, it’s the little things that count!

Missed a day!

Came home to a rumpled bed.

Boo.

Get your mind out of the gutter… I fell asleep in the living room, watching TV.

Ta da!
