To bloody love getting in bed

At night ... crisp clean cool sheets, cuppa tea and some tele! Is it sad that it's arguably the best part of my day 😂. Late 40s work full time and teenage DC

Same here op, love it!!!!

Freshly changed sheets and duvet. Best feeling ever.

I mean, who is going to argue with you. This winter I invested in a heated under blanket and it’s taken the pleasure to a whole other level! Sad that it’ll be too warm to need it soon but I’ll still love getting into bed.

Plumped up pillows, good book, 20 minutes, rearrange pillows to super-soft squishy one on top of one other, lights out - sheer bliss!

Muffsies · 14/04/2026 22:23

Change that to hot milk and youtube and i agree.

Cuppaand2biscuits · 14/04/2026 22:25

Me too, I've felt a bit irritated by the lighter nights because I like to be all snuggled up by 7pm watching TV or reading but I feel like I can't while it's still daylight.

Porkpieandmustard · 14/04/2026 22:30

If I was rich I’d have clean bedding everyday and a member of staff to change it for me 😂

Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain · 14/04/2026 22:30

I have a perfectly good living room but I love watching tv and having tea in bed. Until the cat tries to bring in her latest gift.

That’s my boyfriend’s job.

I absolutely love it too! I go to bed an hour earlier to listen to podcasts before lights go out at 11pm.

This is like my ultimate life goal right now, currently co sleeping with a 2yr old who likes to randomly laugh or kick me in the face at some ungodly hour hahaha

Chocolatecoffeecup · 14/04/2026 22:38

Yes especially after a shower with clean pyjamas and clean sheets but no tea for me.

MrsClattenburg · 14/04/2026 22:40

Yep YABU, as per the thread yesterday about bedtimes, why are people on MN always so keen to get into bed???

Ha ha! Kids eh? My SIL has her toddler wake her up to 12 times a night and scream in her face “muuum” at 6am! I couldn’t do that. (I’m not a mother!)

Treess · 14/04/2026 22:47

I changed all my bedding today, im now sitting in it fresh sheets.
I do change my bedding every 3 days to be honest.
Also to add i have a new pillow memory foam cooling gel pillow.

Myfridgeiscool · 14/04/2026 22:48

My mate bought me pyjamas with ‘I love my bed’ written on them 25 years ago.
Nothing has changed quarter of a century later. So cosy and warm, what’s not to like!

Squirrelsnut · 14/04/2026 22:49

Post-warm shower and fresh sheets - heaven on earth.

ChocolateCinderToffee · 14/04/2026 22:50

Glass of fizzy water and a detective story to read. Cool cotton sheets. Bliss.

MrsHaaland · 14/04/2026 22:50

I love getting in bed, getting my book out and an m&s cookie from the bakery that noone can take off me cos I keep the pack by my bed 🤣

Loulou4022 · 14/04/2026 22:50

Omg it’s my favourite thing ever! I stop at parents 3 nights a week for work, I spend an hour or so with them then make my excuses and I’m in my pjs and it bed by 8! It’s my favourite time of day! I don’t sleep till later but just love being in bed!

NewYearNewJob2024 · 14/04/2026 22:51

Literally just got into bed and it’s just the best!!!

Tomomomatoes · 14/04/2026 22:51

And if you don't already have one, a super king is the single best investment you will ever make 😁😁

CaragianettE · 14/04/2026 22:51

I can’t drink caffeine right before going to bed, so no tea for me. But otherwise, absolutely YANBU.
