Are you revealing your bedroom secrets Renata : :shock: Or does he just use o soto gari to get you to get your BOM off the bed?

Excellent news Rita, just takes thinking sideways a bit. Now don't forget to take the foot pedal off if you decide to use it as a bath mat

Renata, make sure to tell your DH the bath mat is no longer there if you take it away - we wouldn't want him to slip. :shock:

Thanks, Rita! I think I will put it back in the bathroom and go buy me a new one! Would not want him to slip, especially since he's recovering from getting one new

bionic eye...

Renata OFFLINE Posts: 2673 Thank you received: 260	What a great idea, Rita! and a pretty one, besides being comfortable, at that! Glad you got it resolved. I have one of those mats in the bathroom... I'm going to test it out for comfort!

Very interesting approach Rosemary, I will look forward to the blog too.

Meanwhile, back to the foot pedal.... Well I couldn't find a mouse pad while I was in a nearby town this morning but I did find something that has really worked! A bath mat! They just arrived into Penneys - a memory foam bath mat. Velour on one side and a rubberized back. I put some velcro on the back of the foot pedal (the rougher side of the velcro) so that it sticks to the velour. The rubberized underside of the mat means that it isn't going anywhere. And I have a nice soft cushion for my heel and my other foot to rest on. PROBLEM SOLVED.
