if anyone is impressed you can fold a fitted sheet, they need to reexamine their life priorities.

I am talking about my husband primarily, after all.

And an exciting day is one where we both get all the green lights on the way to work

What are you Martha Stewart? Roll that shit in a ball and put it in the closet/drawer/wherever you keep them.

dude

no
fold the flat
fold the fitted - make them the same size: so they fit perfectly inside the pillowcase when it's folded in half. Then put the other pillowcase on the stack, and put it all in the second pillowcase. Fold it over, and with all the others, it's the prettiest linen closet you ever did see.

A popular term for “anal retentive personality,” a personality marked by excessive orderliness, extreme meticulousness, and often suspicion and reserve. According to psychoanalysis, an anal personality is formed in early childhood as a result of efforts to control bowel movements. (See anal stage, genital stage, and oral stage; compare oral personality.)

I do ^^ but I don't worry about the fitted sheet being folded properly. It gets small enough, and the linen closet looks fine/relatively neat & orderly.

^^i should have paid more attention in my child development class! that makes so much sense when i consider my extremely anal coworker who refuses to poop anywhere but in her bathroom at home. she has been controlling this ever since she was a child and even on vacation will refuse to poop until she has made it back home.

I never pooped at school until about 11th grade. Then I learned the joys of taking a shit break.

Now I love shitting at work.





Also, link to sheet folding video please.

hold fitted sheet longways, seam side out
put middle finger in each of the three-way-seamed pockets on top
bring right finger to left finger
bring three-way seams of the other two pockets together, bringing one corner pocket in to the other
when they meet, lay half-folded sheet on flat surface (bed, folding table, etc)
now you have successfully folded the sheet in half
now that it's laying flat, you'll find four sides to your rectangle -- one long side folded, one long
side with elastic, two shorter sides with elastic.
fold over long elastic side a few inches
now fold over each of the shorter elastic sides a few inches.
now you have a square with 4 folded sides
fold this square either way you'd like
then fold that rectangle into thirds.

smile at your results
