See?
Now that wasn't so hard was it.
Being still young and indestructible De might not have thought about what
happens when one becomes old and decrepit . .

I didn't say it was going to be difficult. What I said was "De didn't ask me for suggestions."

Yes, I'm sure De must be young and indestructible, and RETIRED at 30.

These suggestions that I had for myself are just based on what I have learned over the years. I am not old and decrepit.

However, about 15 years ago, the honey went outside in the very early morning to get firewood. He slipped and broke his ankle. The surgery was 5 hours and the recuperation time, with physical therapy was 3/4 months.

We could not live in our own house because we had steps to the house, big steps, and he was in a wheelchair.

You don't have to be old to require adjustments in your house. You break a bone and you need those enhancements now.

It's cheaper to do those things before your house is built. This is coming from a person who did have their house built. "yeah, it's 3K now while it's being built, but double after the house is finished."


If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.

I am only thinking ahead 10 years, even if just for myself.

Wider doors
Flip doorknobs instead of the traditional rounded ones;
Light switches with low lighting in them.
At least one access to the house without steps.
Built-in seat in the shower

I am sure De has thought of these, but to me, they are important.
