Growing up that was a battle my mom gave up on. So I didn’t do it as an adult. But about 3 years ago I read the quote mentioned above and thought it made sense. I’ve been doing it ever since and I gotta say, there’s something to it. Walking by the bedroom and seeing the bed made is positive energy.

No. I just get up, throw $20 on the dresser, and go home

I don't. Seems like a waste of energy and time. Plus, I just read a study that said keeping your bed made keeps bacteria alive. Keeping your windows open and allowing sunlight on your bed unmade is better.

I have a pack of hounds, they have claimed my bed as their turf. They are never out of it long enough for me to sleep there, much less have the time to make it.

I sleep on the couch most nights.

Yes. Those who don’t make their beds tend to accomplish less than those who do.

My wife does it every morning, and when she is out of town I do also.
I’m reminded of the George Jones Song- It’s Been a good year for the Roses:

“ After three full years of marriage
It's the first time that you haven't made the bed”

So many people say this. I guess I just don’t need to make my bed in order motivate me to do stuff

Yes, of course. House stays clean and mopped/vacuumed every other day.

My Dad was military as was I formerly. Didn't know any other way.

That like gets repeated so often and every time I see it it sounds cornier than the last.

My bed gets made after I strip it and wash the bedclothes weekly. In between, no.

Not in the morning. I like them to air out during the day. I don't know why, but in my mind, they are refreshed. I make the bed before bed later on.
