    Folding fitted sheets is easy.

    1. Match all the corners.

    2. Roll into a ball and put in linen closet or basket.

    As I get older, I'm becoming more lazy. Fitted sheet it is. Years ago, I would carefully fold the corners of flat sheet and tuck it in neatly so that it didn't have any wrinkles. Must be my engineer side.

    One of my cats have an allergy to down feathers. She insists on sleeping on my king size down pillow when its reasonably warm or under my down comforter in the winter. Poor thing has constant runny eyes. But I guess she prefers the soft pillow for her bed. I guess its a body pillow to her. She let me rest my head on a corner of the king size pillow. What I do for my kitties.

    Ha! Yeah, folding is the least of it (though my OCD self is much happier since I learned the technique for folding fitted sheets that involves tucking each corner into the last ). It's more that, you know how T-shirts act in the washer and dryer, well imagine a T-shirt the size of a queen sized fitted sheet. In the washer it turns into a sodden lump, gets imbalanced and I'm lucky if it doesn't pop the door and spill water all over the floor. In the dryer, if I'm using it, you have to open it up and shake the sheets out at least every 10-15 minutes, or they'll still be sodden lumps at the end of an hour.

    You know, now that you say this, I know I am not crazy for continually asking my cleaning people to not roll the sheets up in a ball to bring them down to the washer. No matter how much I shake them out, they never dry! I never in my life rolled my sheets up when I took them off of the bed. I know this is a first world issue, but I thought I was nuts over this
