A dilemma that has plagued me for so long has finally been "put to bed". Every weekend it's been the same old thing, but a recent revelation has me giddy.
I don't know how all of you do it, but I've tried and tried to no avail until now. Every Saturday, week after week, the sound of the cycle complete on the dryer causes a sinking feeling in my stomach. I'm writing about, of course, the dreaded folding of the fitted sheets!
Does anyone have any luck with this?
My linen closet is in constant disarray with spare fitted sheets, tilting to the left and leaning to the right, ready to topple at any moment, and Adrian Monk would gasp if he were here.Until now.
The solution is really quite simple. Is anyone familiar with those tear-off sheets on race car windshields? That's the concept. Just put all of the fitted sheets on the bed, one on top of the other and peel them off as needed! Think how pleased your guests will be when they see all the work you do giving them fresh linens every day, they'll think they're at a 5 star resort! And all you did was peel and fluff..and it will be our litle secret!
My closet is so orderly and spacious now, I might even go out shopping to find something to fill in the gaps...woo woo, shopping!
Well, by now you realize I'm such a nut, and many of you knew this already, but give it a whirl! What do you have to lose, except maybe some clutter!

I have to say I dread doing laundry too. Towels and sheets, especially I take them to the laundromat and have them deal with them. I just put them away once I pick them up :-P

Brilliant idea...unless, like our dear aging friend Elton John, one is developing bladder problems. He'd have to re-launder all his bottom sheets at ONCE...or risky being a "Funky Cat". Ewwwwwww.
