Re: What basic life skills have you not mastered yet?

OMG that video. The first time I saw it, I was all "Oh, bah humbug, what kind of sheltered petty life do you live where folding a fitted sheet is the biggest challenge you face".
AND THEN I TRIED.
It's seriously frustrating because every once in a blue moon I do what seem to me just the same motions and it works, and every other time it's a mess where I do and do and do and it keeps coming up shambles until I give up and roll the darn things in a ball and stuff them in the back of the linen closet and hope to god my aunts don't visit any time soon.

Aw!
The only thing i don't like about that vid is the way she layers the corners.
I put a corner inside-out over my left hand, then put the other corner on that same side over my left hand, as well, right-side out. Do the same for the other end, and you have a sheet folded in half, with the corners tucked into each other.

Then you fold in half again (with a corner over your left hand), until you have a sheet folded into quarters with all four corners 'stacked' one on top of the other. It will naturally sort of fold the top down, and that's when you lay it on a bed or table and make it into a nice little square package.

The trick is just to get all for corners layered on/in each other, and the rest is easy.

Good luck! I hate when my sheets are a mess - my closet shelves are way tall and i can't reach or see up there, so folded is the only way to get all the sheets stacked and neat so i can climb my stepladder and get fresh ones down without a huge to-do.

Thanks for the support :) There are days I just consider ditching everything and using a hammock for the rest of my life. And then I imagine dealing with period cramps or a hangover in a hammock and think, nope, gotta have a bed nd sheets.

Omg.
When i was as kid, i think a hammock would have been magical.
But now...my back. Hell no.
