Duh!!!

My big dog Boots had TPLO surgery 3 months ago. They cut the tibia, sort of rotate it and put a plate in. Athletes get this, torn ligaments in their knee. For the first 2 months she was always on her leash and helped up and down the stairs. Now my Boo dog loved to sleep on my bed. Between her and my Abby dog it left little room for me. Since she couldn't jump up on the bed I took the frame out and left the box spring and mattress on the floor. Just a short step up and there she's in bed. The things I do for my "girls" Anyhow, the whole reason for this post is........January 2012 I broke my hip. Recovery was slow and one of the things that was hardest to do was to get into bed and reach things on the floor. Just the act of lifting my leg up was at times almost unobtainable. Tonight as I sat on my now lowered bed a thought came to me. Why in the world did I not think about lowering the bed for myself?? It sure would have made my life easier. Yes it was one of those "duh" moments.
