And another thing...

For years and years, I was the only one who made the bed. When I was incapacitated for a while several years ago, he would make the bed sometimes. Instead of turning the sheets and bedspread down at the head of the bed like a normal person, he would fold the sheets and comforter over at the foot of the bed. At first I thought it just a case of retarded development, and sometimes I would correct it and other times just let it be. When he persisted in this practice every time, I pointed out that he was not following proper bed-making procedure. He said he didn't like the extra folds around his neck, preferred them at the foot of the bed. I have no answer for such thinking. (Yes, I do--it's stupid.)
