I could so easily get on my soapbox and pontificate about how I grew up in a household — and lived the first half of my adult life - with one set of sheets per bed. One. When they were dirty, you washed them. When they were dry, you put them back on. The upside? No folding! The downside? Night sweats. Kids wetting the bed. Vomit. I won't go on. Now that I have two sets I can tell you it's heaven, although I still usually put the ones I just washed right back on the bed because...folding. If you have more than two sets, choose the two highest quality and donate the rest to animal shelters or the charity shop of your choice. Then luxuriate in the white space on your closet shelves and sleep well knowing that if something untoward does happen in the night, you're covered. I once read that Queen Elizabeth has her people turn the sheets every day so they wear evenly and thus last longer. I'm not there. Maybe if I had people. Comments are closed.
