The first image I clicked on started with "Daily - Make Bed" and I noped out of the whole thing. There's cleaning that needs done regularly for health and there's tasks that get more onerous the longer you leave them (like laundry). But I'll never understand the obsession with making beds.
Maybe people have more complex bedding setups, but mostly I just have a duvet on top and fitted sheet below. What difference does it make to anyone if I lay the duvet out flat and smooth each day? I'm immediately going to move it around when I go to bed, and I spend almost no time in my bedroom when I'm not in my bed. It's the equivalent of saying "Daily - Fold the end of the toilet paper into a neat triangle". If anything, immediately covering your used bedsheets with a duvet is trapping in moisture. At least the German habit of hanging your duvet out to air each day serves a purpose!
hehe, yeah hence my 'aspirational' comment. I think of em as more guidelines than strict must-dos. also I forget that cleaning the blinds is even a thing until i go look these up and see that on the list, lol.
Husband makes the bed every day. I don't care about that but washing the sheets every week and showering before bed keeps it nice. He likes it made because he sits on there to relax and because it makes him feel more in control I think. I do it if he has to leave early because he likes it, even though it does nothing for me. I think to him it is akin to decluttering, making an organized environment in the bedroom.
