That's funny. I generally do feel that the lives depicted in TV shows belong to a strange, foreign culture, even when the show is set in a familiar place, but it is not the tidiness of the set which gives me that impression!
A room always feels much better after it's been set to rights; why wouldn't I want to enjoy the home I live in? Little maintenance tasks like making one's bed really don't take much time or effort once you choose to make a habit of them.
Well more than obviously yes and scandalized by the HN-ers above. Never considered people not making their bed. Grandfather was in the Navy, mother ran and wife runs a tight ship. Me I’m along for the ride. I could expand a few hundred words about the enjoyment an acquired skill like keeping your house tidy can bring.
>However, experts including Heather Proctor, a professor of biological diversity at the University of Alberta, note they haven’t encountered any published research suggesting leaving our beds uncovered can discourage dust mite growth.
We air out our bed in the morning, but we do it in a way that still makes the bedroom look nice, removing the top blanket and folding down the top sheet. Sometimes we hang them up and leave just the fitted sheet on the bed. We aren’t worried about mites; we just like the freshness when we reassemble the bed later that day.
There are handheld vacuum cleaners for sucking up virus, bacteria, pollen, and killing mites. Stuffy nose in the morning, gone! Do it once in a while, and keep making your bed.
