    Your mother always told you to make your bed. Every single morning after you’d rise, groggy and miserable, you’d get the inevitable question: “Did you make your bed?” Well, guess what? It turns out mom was wrong — it’s actually better for you, and for your overall health, not to make your bed at all.

    The mighty house dust mite. Actually, it’s not mighty at all. These microscopic little buggers are running rampant in your bed (sorry, but it’s true). In fact, the average bed can be home to 1.5 million of them. House dust mites feed on human skin scales (ew), so they love to take up residence with us under the sheets. The allergens they produce (which are actually the mites’ poop) are easily inhaled during sleep and are a major cause of illnesses like asthma. They don’t exactly help dust allergies, either.
    It only makes sense, then, that when we sweat and roll around during the night, our skin is flaking off everywhere, the sheets are dampening, and the mites are having a feast. In the morning, if we pull up the sheets and make our beds immediately, all of the skin scales, sweat and mites will be trapped underneath.
    But, friends, if we don’t make our bed, the mites, the scales, the sweat, all of it, will be exposed to fresh air and light.
    “We know that mites can only survive by taking in water from the atmosphere using small glands on the outside of their body,” Dr. Stephen Pretlove of Kingston University’s School of Architecture said. “Something as simple as leaving a bed unmade during the day can remove moisture from the sheets and mattress so the mites will dehydrate and eventually die.”
    Experts recommend leaving your bed unmade for the entire day — yes, the entire day — and making it (if you must) when you get home later on. By that point, many of the mites will have died an unceremonious death. Good riddance, you gross little things.
    So print this out or send it to mom for all those years of forced bed-making. Isn’t it nice to know your lazy self was right all along?

    happy long labour weekend,

    for me and my family is the weekend that my mom died,
    don't remember how long ago as it hurts too much, to figure out.


    i think of the silliest things - how mom liked the answering machine,
    gee was funny how many times she would call, so wish i had those
    messages now.
    and not so silly things, my mom was put away and had shock treatment,
    for no reason i can think of, except a stillborn (happened in their bed)
    and 3 under the age of 5 crazy kids - who wouldn't have a breakdown?

    from the time i could drive i drove her everywhere, from 16 until,,,
    and lived with her a ton of years, so wishing i was now.


    for some reason i have a silly memory, of going home on lsd,

    was way out over there, and i think mom knew - kept coming
    in to check on me, i was ing out, heart going nuts etc.
    somehow mom calmed me down, considering the time period
    1970's amazing she could
    if you have some spare time

    have i mentioned she was a terrific person, had a friend who's family
    disowned him - 8 brothers and sisters besides the parents, -
    some sort of anti gay crap, kevin could barely believe anyone older
    and looked like a parent would love him.
    so just sighing and remembering
    i do blabber, but as everyone's mom is worth blabbering about

    ,,,,

    ps if any of my posts have added lines ask sc why
    if you have some spare time

    Interesting concept, do you have the source and scientific evidence to prove this? ��

    My cynical side, thinks the expert is a university student......
