Thank you Grandma Helen!
Today was the housekeeping core class. Meaning that I sat through eLearning and classes all day and then got to make beds and clean bathrooms for the last two hours... yeah. I made ONE bed and cleaned ONE bathroom all in an hour. It was pathetic, but the other newbies were right there with me. Who knew there was more to making a bed than throwing a fitted sheet on a mattress, followed by the flat sheet and a comforter?? Making beds is a science, especially when you don't use a fitted sheet! Talk about some mad hospital corners. I was thanking Grandma the whole time I was doing the bed. I remember being in the front room of their house and she showed me how to fold one side in and then lift up and tuck, fold, etc. I may have been slow at a lot of things today, but I sure have those corners down! Thank you Grandma Helen.

I'm impressed. Keep up the good work and leave some more cleaning tips.
ReplyDeleteI use those hospital corners all the time!! It helps that my hubby learned them in the military too :)
ReplyDeleteGood to see you appreciate the difficult upbringin' y'all had. I expect to see something about walking to school in 3 feet of snow soon.
ReplyDeleteMy grandma taught me about hospital corners, too. I can't make a bed without them!
ReplyDeleteBeen almost a week and all they taught you is what you already knew??? No news?
