High Noon: Bedtime

Daniel Woods sits atop a bedspread he made. He also made the dress on the doll at the foot of the bed. Woods learned to knit and crochet from his mother and now uses it as a stress reliever. (Christopher Anderson / The Spokesman-Review)

Daniel Woods sits atop a bedspread he made.

Had a  wild day yesterday what with deadlines, interviews and blogsitting. At 5 PM, I logged off the computer and was chatting with my kids when I realized I hadn’t even made the bed.

Throughout our married life our rule has been the last one out of bed makes the bed. Guess who is almost always the last one out of bed?

When I was single I never cared if my bed was made or not, but I quickly learned my husband doesn’t like unmade beds. He’s perference has grown on me. There’s something very nice about pulling back the bedspread at the end of a long day.

Who makes the bed at your house or do you care if it gets made?
