Why is it that when I make my bed, making sure that the tag on the comforter is on the opposite end from my face, that the tag on the comforter always ends up on my face?

It's all scratchy on my nose and chin and feels uncomfortable and I can't sleep. So I get up in the middle of the night and turn the whole comforter around again.

Then a few days later the tag is on my face again.

And even if you cut the tag off there's always that little bit on the edge that is still itchy, and if you're able to tear that little scratchy bit off it usually makes a hole on the edge so you have to get out a needle and thread and re-stitch that section of edge. And then that section of edge never looks just like the rest of the edge of the comforter and sometimes it comes apart in the wash.

And if instead of hand stitching it you decide to machine sew it, first you have to set up the sewing machine then dust the machine off then test the tension then make sure the right color thread is loaded on the bobbin and the machine and set the stitch to the right length.

And even if you do that successfully, the tags on the pillows and the bedspread make you start the whole process all over again.

I think it might be best just to give up and try to sleep with tags scratching my face.

I HATE this! It happens to me too, at least once a week. I swear, when I'm not home, the cats get together, and each take a corner, and rotate the damned blanket so that the tag is in my face again. If it weren't for the cats, this would be the best evidence I've ever seen for ghost activity. A very annoying ghost.

You made me laugh out loud because I go through the same thing except I don't know how to use a sewing machine.

I hate when I'm pulling up my covers and I accidentally hit myself in the face.

Cut the tag off, problem solved.


Anyway, my first world problem today is having clean dishes in the dish drainer that cannot manage to put themselves away for some reason.

Yes, I hate that little scratchy bit that's still there after cutting the tag off!

Went to the mall. I hate going to the mall! I climbed to the second level and turned left. Went all the way to the end and discovered the store I remembered being there was not there. So, started back, located a store directory, and then walked all the way back the other way. All this to buy 2 tee shirts.

My mouse trap worked. So now I have to figure out what to do with a dead mouse.

I want to throw up.
