Level 5--During the night the sheets have been twisted into a Gordian Knot, and what the heck is a pillow doing down there?

Level 6--Helping you make the bed is what the cat does best. She paces up and down as you walk around the perimeter, then lies down on the lump you'd like to straighten out. Clever, that cat.

Level 7--A dog is a remarkably unmoveable lump, thumping his tail and looking up at you with those puppy dog eyes. Do you have the heart to tell him to scoot so you can finish making the bed?

Level 8--You forgot to do the laundry yesterday. 'Nuff said.

Level 9--Hubby is still in the bed. You'd try to make it around him, but that's not going to work. A cup of coffee might entice him up and out, possibly.

Level 10--This is the final level of difficulty. You're still in the bed yourself, snuggled down. Who the hell wants to make a bed, anyway? Are you nuts?
