I try to launder sheets every week, but it sometimes goes two. Plus any time I think I might have company over. I think I've turned the mattress two or three times since I moved here 3 years ago. (It went the previous four years with no turning, but I almost never slept on it while I had the comfy soporific couch in my living room.)
Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

2 beech, 3 flannel, 1 t-shirt, 7 cotton sets and a few mis-matched individual cotton sheets - that's for my bed and the guest beds
1 beech, 1 flannel, 2 slippery something, 3-4 cotton sets for the two beds in mac's room.
I have some sheets that were wedding gifts to my parents, 44 years ago. I have some pillow cases that were my grandmother's. And I have at least 2 top sheets that were mine from elementary school age, so they are at least 30 years old.

Timothy Olyphant is very easy to watch in this.
I have a set of white cotton striped sheets that I wash every week. The beech sheets sound interesting, though. I have 3 or 4 other percale sets and a set of cotton flannel that are currently taking up space in my closet. I should probably give a couple of them away.

Now watching Romeo and Juliet on E. Forgot how cute young Leo was.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
I have two sets of sheets, but mostly I wash one and just put it back on the bed. Also they don't match-- pale blue fitted sheet, and darker-blue striped top sheet. I like them, though.
I hit my 1000-word writing goal for the night. Go me!

Mini Fest was fun, rest of the weekend's pretty quiet.

Aaand now I've misplaced my favorite gloves. I swear I threw them in the laundry basket, but they don't have appeared to be in either load. Damnit, I don't see them anywhere obvious.
And I knicked my knuckle making the bed. Who does that?!

Compassionately intolerant
I've done that.
All my sheets match and can be mixed with each other.
My flannel duvet cover is one from Pottery Barn that has a giant poppy pattern in cream, salmon, burgundy and two colors of green. Every sheet blends with those colors. My summer duvet cover is the same burgundy color in cotton. The bedskirt is a velvet in one of the green colors. Mixy-mixy.
I'm ocd that way.
