It's too much work for something I don't care about. I am always folding sheets alone which is hard to do anyway so I just pretend it's a flat sheet and proceed to fold into halves until its about the same size as the flat sheet. Wrinkles? Sorry, I only use my iron for sewing projects. Anyway the blanket covers the bed so no one sees them anyway. You and Martha rock on. More power to you.

It's suprising how quickly they can learn to throw something together when they're hungry,stands them in good stead when they eventually leave home! My 16 year old daughter mastered how to make spaghetti bolegnaise and pasta bake and suprisingly (could be pasta thing going on here)it tasted pretty damn good, so when she offers to make dinner for the two of us I never say no or she might not ask again(you know how temperamental teenagers can be)Now if only she would tidy her room with the same enthusiasm!

It's not a task that can be performed by mere mortals. The correct procedure for dealing with fitted sheets is this: 1. take the sheet off the bed. 2. leave the bed bare. 3. wash & dry the sheet. 4. put the sheet back on the bed without any folding involved. That is the only way anyone other than a laundry god can properly deal with fitted sheets. Then again, maybe I'm just: a) a klutz b) incompetent c) hopelessly lazy d) all of the above (To see the correct answer, take a piece of paper, write an upside-down letter "d" on it, then stand on your head.)
