Three Sheets in the Wind
It's November 1st, and time to put the flannel sheets on the bed. I like to begin the season with the tan sheets with the tiny multi-colored autumn leaves on them. Soft, so very soft, and warm, so very warm. . . .I really prefer crisp cotton sheets, around 250 count (I hate satiny sheets; I feel as if I need a railing to keep from sliding onto the floor, and I hate really low-count sheets because they're scratchy.) But crisp smooth sheets? I'm almost in dreamland from merely the thought.
But when the weather gets that autumn chill, I like the thought of flannel sheets, even if the actuality of the sheets isn't my favorite.
We spend so much time with sheets; it's little wonder that people have favorites.
Not as much time as we'd like, but enough time that we ought to have sheets we can get along with.


Hitting the fan like no one else can. . .
