Oh, the details

OK, I'm going to get home, loopy maybe, in pain certainly, trying to figure out how to move on crutches while my feet scream at me for my hubris in even being upright at all. The first thing I'll want to do is get in bed, right?

Convalescing from foot surgery in a second story room is perhaps not the brightest idea I have ever had. :-)

I'm sure it's possible to get up those stairs once, likely on my bum. I think [livejournal.com profile] rfrench should have a video camera handy.

(realistic answer: plunk down on the *couch*. close to kitchen, even.)

You'll want to be close to bathroom, close to food. Speaking from broken foot experience.

I did manage stairs twice a day and came down and sat on the couch (from the upstairs bedroom) then went back up at night. Knees for crawling upstairs works. Don't suppose your couch is a sleeper?

Not a sleeper, but I'm short. :-)

Knees for up! Yeah! And I already go downstairs backwards (facing up), so that makes me think knees would work for down as well. Excellent.
