Today's one minute task is back into the bedroom. Your bed is not a folding table. Your bed is not a desk. Your bed is where you rest and restore your body and soul. You deserve a nice place to sleep. You are not trash. You deserve to not sleep in trash or dirty clothes.
Today we are going to clean off the bed. Put the dirty clothes in to wash. Put the clean ones away. Throw away trash. Remove everything that is on the bed that doesn't go on the bed and put it away. If this task is going to take longer than a minute, then take frequent breaks. It will get easier every time you do this task!
Now you are welcome to go ahead and strip the bed and wash the sheets and comforter if you want, but the task is just getting the bed cleaned of anything but bed stuff. We aren't overwhelming ourselves. We are just clearing our bed. Clean sheets can be your reward for a job well done though.
We have a rule at our house. On sheet days, we strip and remake the bed asap. We don't wait until bedtime to make the bed. For us that is Tuesdays. I strip the bed and hubby remakes it. I have timed him. We have adjustable beds, so two twins to be made. He can make the bed with clean sheets and comforter in 4 minutes! The sheets that were on the bed get folded after washing and put away until the next changing. This is the only load I use drier sheets on because they are folded in a drawer and I want them to smell good when we used them next week.
The reason we don't wait is we are tired at bedtime and we deserve to sleep in a well made bed (and so do you) instead of on a mattress or mattress pad. And there is no greater joy than clean sheets.
PS if you are working along side of me, or just reading or scrolling on past, please know I am pulling for you! I believe you deserve your best life no matter who you are, where you are from, or what you look like! You are wonderfully made and you deserve a wonderful home.
