I want to go to bed but just remembered I haven't put the bedding on. Why did I not do it earlier 🥹

Does anyone want to come round and do it for me and then carry me to bed and maybe make me a cup of tea

I might have done, but I’ve had a couple of glasses of vino to celebrate getting over hump day!

Get it done and enjoy the loveliness that is a clean bed!

Do you have a spare room? Go and sleep in there. Or do you have a sleeping bag, use that

No spare room I knew I should of married for money then id have a spare room and a maid to make my bed and a butler to carry me to it and tuck me. Why the pool boy sings me to sleep. Being poor sucks 😐

I think I'd just burn the house down and start again.

Tea at this hour, and an unmade bed? You may as well pull an all nighter

I know and I have wet hair that I still need to dry

I do this every single time. It’s the worst task but sleeping in fresh clean sheets makes it worth it.
many worst was going to bed at 2am and having to Mand it back up! Felt like the longest 10mins of my life

Wolfpinkola · 16/07/2025 22:32

So sorry to hear this ..

FrazzledHippy · 16/07/2025 22:33

My sympathies OP. It always seems to happen to me when I've had an especially late night. Dragging myself up to bed at 1am to find no sheets on is absolutely not the one! It's always on a day when it's nice weather and I've thought "Ooh I'll just strip the bed and put it back on, lovely and fresh!"

MsJinks · 16/07/2025 22:36

You’ve got half ready - just go out now and pull an all nighter, or a guy who has a made up bed - don’t forget to ask this early on in the chat up stage to save disappointment later.

@Muchtoomuchtodo - What’s hump day? I really don’t want to google….

murasaki · 16/07/2025 22:40

I did this the other night, i just put the sheet on and pillow cases, then gave up as it was too hot to fight the duvet. So slept under the unfilled cover.

It was quite nice.

Middle of the working week, not nearly as fun as you might think.

ChaChaChaChanges · 16/07/2025 22:42

Oh! Thank you. Yup, bit disappointed!

Nothing dodgy! Wednesday is the middle day of my working week, I’m past the middle of the week hence hump day!

Opplesandbononos · 16/07/2025 22:43

Ive done this. And slept on a blanket and had a blanket on top haaa

WhatMe123 · 16/07/2025 22:43

Oh the worst op 🤯🤯🤯😅

vodkaredbullgirl · 16/07/2025 22:44

Sleep standing up, like horses do.

MyOtherCarIsAPorsche · 16/07/2025 22:44

Hope your bedding is not still out on the line.

Denimrules · 16/07/2025 22:45

I must admit my usual process is strip bed, put new bedding on then wash bedding taken off. Tis a hot job in this weather but I get the changing overwith in one go

Sounds like a plan OP 🙌 😂 😂

I’m only up because my dd22, left her bedding out till 10 and the dew got it so now it’s in our elderly dryer, directly under my bedroom and making enough noise to wake the dead. She has 3 sets but put the others in the loft, unaccountably. Not at all pleased. I am horrible enough to enjoy that she will then have to make the bed.
