Mattress thickness is a problem nowadays, I've discovered. You've got to get just the right size fitted corner. Lat time I bought some sheets I measured how thick the mattress was--felt like an idiot doing it, but it worked.

Do you have a pillow top mattress?

Any day in the life of us Senior Citizens is just one challenge after another. Are you still frustrated, or have you been able to enjoy the humor of it? smile


.

As you and I would say in "our" day: "I feel for ya, but I can't quite reach ya!" wink But, you handed me a laugh for the day.
