Hospital corners aren’t a thing for me, although I learned how to do it in Home Ec in the 7th grade.

Most of our residents don’t even use a top sheet. They have a fitted sheet and blankets.

I’ve done the bottom sheet only, with blankets, but I was also a young bride when there were no fitted sheets. I learned how to make a bed you could sleep on...

These days, I sleep with a bottom and a top sheet, and the sheets are flannel, so the top sheet acts as a blanket. I sleep on flannel sheets year round, because I have night sweats, and the flannel wicks away the moisture. By the time I have soaked the second side of the bed, the first side is dry. :o]

And that’s why I need new pillows: the night sweats include my head, and the pillows flatten out and get thin by being wet and having the weight of my head on them. My hair is flat and wet when I wake up, and it’s pretty disgusting. I REALLY need new pillows...!

Ohyah: Hospital corners are a thing with my CFIDS. I don’t like the foot of the bed elevated because the sheets and/or blankets are bunched up at the corners.
