Recently, I was reading about your significant others' cleaning efforts around the house in the Housecleaning Support Group on TeamSugar. Cocoangel shared that her husband is actually a good housecleaner. My favorite part of her comment, though, was her observation that, "[t]he best thing is that a few years ago I pointed out that I couldn't make the bed until he got out of it, which is usually anywhere from one to two hours after I get up. So we instituted the 'last one out of bed, makes the bed' rule. I love it!"
If you're living with somebody special, but you're tired of always making the bed then I suggest you try Cocoangel's bed rule in your household. It'll either make you get out of bed earlier (perhaps making more time for a morning workout), or improve your technique with hospital corners. It's worth a try!

Thanks for the shout out casa! Since I'm a morning person & do get up the minute I'm awake, I think I've made the bed maybe twice in the past year. Probably a negotiation that my hubby is rethinking :-\
