To make the bed or to not make the bed

We keep it made but do not wash the sheets after every weekend. We usually wash them after a few trips so maybe once a month. They get put back out and the bed is made before we leave again. Towels and clothes are washed when we get home and put back in the camper as soon as they are folded.

Like you significant other ???

What else is in bed with you to lose ?

If I don't make the bed each morning, I tend to lose things in the bedding.

When I come home, like the others, I strip the bed, wash the linen, and then put the clean, folded linen in a cupboard in my house. I usually don't make the bed till I am setting up at the campsite.

We scrub everything and make ready for next trip. All I need is to close the valves, check the air, put in some groceries & water and hook on.

After washing everything, we make the bed so it’s ready for the next adventure. The bed is also made everyday while we’re on an adventure.

Our camper is always on. I have water, sewer, and power here at home. In fact, I'm in the camper right now. You never know when a nap might be called for, so the bed is always ready to go. As is the 'fridge, television, computer, etc.

This is ours...in our slide. As you can see, it's always made like others have posted.

hmmmmm....nice for the ladies, but I'd rather sleep here!

My wife is compulsive about making the bed. Even if it is unmade when it is time for bed, she will make it then go to bed. Usually I am first up so the bed is made as soon as she get up.

We change sheets when they need changing. After 52 years of marriage I quit guessing on that one. It is not my job. :)

Every bed in our trailer has spare bedding sets. A very good idea if you have little kids as they are Master Mess Makers. The beds are always made. We take home whatever needs to be wash and add it back to the inventory on the next trip.
