    Then I’d have to learn the black magic that is folding a fitted sheet AND actually fold them every time I change my bed/wash the old set.

    Can’t just leave clean laundry in a pile either… That’s just going to bother me; are they clean or not? If it’s clean, it’s gotta be put away neatly, but It’s gonna have to stay in the dryer until I work up that kind of courage.

    Nope, just gonna fight myself to put them back on the bed once they’re clean…

      For the fitted sheet, what I do is roll it up instead of folding, then shove it inside the matching pillowcase. When it’s time to change sheets it makes it super easy to grab and have the whole fresh set, no fussing around.

      Now, actually putting them ON the bed? Still can be a struggle lol

      The trick is to swap it after washing so that you never have to fold it and it just lives in the laundry hamper

      I have a shelf in one of my closets where I just mindlessly shove all my sheets, blankets, pillow cases, etc. It actually works surprisingly better than you’d expect; I’ve never had any issues finding things

      I mitigate this by having bins for clean laundry. I have underclothes in one, outer clothes in another, and linens in a third in my closet. If folding is a strong need for you that’s probably not going to work but it does keep the dryer clear (mostly) so reduces friction for doing new laundry.
