Taking a nap in an unmade bed...

I don't nap but I hate an unmade bed. If I lie down during the day it's on top of my made up bed with my blankie. 😜

This is almost right for me. I nap in my big old chair. Problem still solved!

With all the sitting around I’ve had to do over the last 6 weeks, I have totally mastered the art of chair napping. I have a big fluffy square pillow that goes behind my back, two pillows that go under my foot that needs to be elevated on the ottoman, a new fluffy cozy throw from Costco to go over me, a hooded sweatshirt with the hood up and coming down over my eyes to block the light and a little dog either next to me or laying right on me. I can nap like that for 2-3 hours. It doesn’t hurt that my current various ailments make it difficult to sleep at night so I’m constantly tired!

I wouldn’t be comfortable at all sleeping on top of a crisply made bed. I have a whole assortment of pillows and blankets and stuff that all needs to be arranged just so in order to get restful sleep in my bed. DH can’t stand having his sheets and blankets tucked in at the bottom so I have given up doing that every day. Now I just pull the sheets and blankets up neatly at the top and call it good. The only time the bed is actually made is on clean sheets day.

I worked the night shift for a long time, so sleeping during the day is easy for me and I love a long nap. I like to be snuggled up in my bed for good sleep, but I will occasionally rest under the throw blanket.

I never nap on an unmade bed because the bed is made every morning. If I nap on the bed, it's on a throw blanket on top of the bed. I don't find relaxation in an unmade bed. 

Me too. I would have to make the bed before I got into it. 

A kip on the sofa is the answer.

I’m not a napper. The only time I sleep during the day is when sick.

But I do have hard and fast “rules” about my bed. It’s made properly every morning. I shower at night because I love sliding all clean into a crisply made bed. Sheets are changed a minimum of once a week. There’s nothing better than fresh-smelling clean sheets.

The reference to a nap in an unmade bed doesn’t sound welcoming to me.

YES!!

A nap is on top of a made bed with a light blanket or throw.  Not under the covers, that is for night time sleeping.  Geez.



***I think this discussion my fall into the wash cloth or no wash cloth?

I'm a poor sleeper. I can only really sleep in bed, with all the sheets and blankets wrapped around me like a burrito. I rarely make the bed and while I might take a quick doze on the couch, I don't really fall asleep truly. So for a real nap I'm in bed, wrapped up like a burrito.
