Fresh Sheets

One of the best feelings in the world is the simple joy of climbing into a bed with fresh, clean sheets!   I am old enough to remember when sheets were made of cotton, and came out of the dryer with so many wrinkles!  And stay at home moms would iron them.  *blink* who would have time for that these days??

One of the things I like about living in the Valley of the Sun is the low humidity.  So I have learned that taking my sheets from the dryer when they aren't quite dry and slipping them on just a little damp, turn a fan on low for about 20 minutes and they dry up so nice, they feel as if they've been ironed!!!  

Once the sheets are dry, I make up the rest of the bed.  I couldn't do this living in Ohio.  Everything was dried, dried, dried in the dryer because of the humidity.  If you didnt dry everything well, it would smell of mildew, a huge pet peeve for me living there!

Tonight, I will luxuriate in a fresh, clean bed with smoothed out sheets and with luck, a really good night's sleep!!
