As I struggled with the fitted sheet on the bed, I imagined as I often do, a possible better system.
The problem is that my solution includes Velcro fasteners which get all wonky in the agitation cycle, as well as collect lots of hair from wherever they magically find it. Additionally, the words, “side,” and “top,” would be emblazoned on the sheet itself in bold color, not on a little tag in a corner on the underside. Or maybe it could be a shrink-wrap kind of solution where the sheet magically conforms as you put the blow-dryer to it? Or the box spring and fitted wonder could be magnetized? Forget the Velcro idea!
It’s always one of the least enjoyable aspects of washing the bed linens, which is why my daughter made me chuckle with this missive she sent yesterday.
It seemed appropriate following Halloween. I’m glad I don’t have a duvet.
